Cause he wants to win a Cup with a loaded team.

People thinking he would have signed that deal here if we had room are deluded.

Yeah, it must be hard to believe, but not every player wants to play for the Flyers. Even if they had $20 million in cap space to burn up, the whole lot of that isn't enough to buy some players.

Nothing official yet but I believe MTL a likely winner in Jiri Sekac UFA sweepstakes. Much sought after 22-year-old winger in KHL last year.

Downie did his job here getting Coots and Read on track till he got hurt, and Talbot makes too much for a 4th liner on this team right now. Timmy P is uninformed as always.

So I could be making a sweeping generalization here, but Spezza was traded for 3 mediocre-above average (but not promising) prospects, a promising young kid, and a 2nd rounder.

That's a terrible haul.

Again.

Throw it on the pile.

- Giroux_Is_God

If you equated it to our prospect pool, it'd be similar to us trading McGinn, Andrew Johnston, and Marcel Noebels.
