Jason Arnott holds the team record for goals in a season with 33. The Flyers have had 12 players score more goals during Nashville's existence. They've really been starved for basically any sustained offense.

Exactly. And I think despite that, they've done pretty well.

I'm a little surprised I didn't miss something. LTIR is one of the trickier parts of an already tricky cap.

Hamilton and Svedberg are the only two players listed that are waiver exempt.

I don't think it is impossible, but it's highly optimistic. I think the Flyers are a playoff team this year. I'd be ecstatic if they were a solid 5 seed.

Svedberg's the goalie, right? I went with just Hamilton because his salary was almost exactly right to get under the cap.

I think they will be in the fight for a playoff spot right until the end.

I don't think they will finish ahead of Pitt or the NYRs.

CLB, Isles, Caps and Flyers will all be battling for a spot.

I'm right there with you. The most obvious course for them to take.

Realistically, I see the Flyers in the 5-8 slot. The Rangers to me could go either way. Never know how injuries and unforeseen issues are going to affect a team. Every season there are teams that finish above or below where they are forecasted to. I think the Flyers have a chance to be better then a lot of people think they will be.

No, Mr Carchidi. Time to let it go.

Actually didn;t say who would replace him. Not sure they signed Gagne to a deal yet

Placing a player on IR doesn't free up any cap space.
