Allen played 11 games this year... not sure he's quite on the level of Grossmann.

Allen > Grossmann in every way possible, except for age.

(harder to crack the Ducks' and Habs' lineups... he'd be top-4 here, lol)

Jsaq kind of explained it above. It was just a paper move to officially assign him to LHV.
- Tomahawk


Yep. He was sent down on a conditioning assignment, had to be recalled after either 3 days or 3 games(think it's games), then the Flyers could either keep him on roster or send him to AHL, which requires waivers.

Then I'm sure he'll be claimed promptly by another bottom 10 team.

Chief might very well get gassed, but I am glad that it sounds like Hextall is going to get into this roster, maybe sooner than expected

Do you really think grossman would crack the Habs lineup?

I think they learned their lesson with doug Murray last year

We may look back in 3-4 years and be thankful that the 'Canes, 'Yotes and Devs broke this camel's back.

JSaq posted some tweets from Carchidi; sounds like Hextall's looking at options, be it trade or waive

Needs to be done, man -- sheer lunacy to even think about keeping this thing intact

I will believe it when I see it ( Hextall making a move)
It would be nice to start stocking up some picks. Coburn and Grossmann should fetch a 1st and a 3rd. How worse can they be if they play Coliaiacovo and MDZ ...not much

Half a season of evaluating this poopfest, and talking with players. He's probably got a decent idea of who he wants sticking around.

That's like DeNiro in Midnight Run, telling Moscone that he's gonna dump the Duke in the swamp, then looking over at the Duke and shaking his head 'no'.

Florida could use a scoring RW. Retain $1 million in salary and send him back down south.

Done. Don't even need anything in return if it's done with just a million retained

You'd think so -- yes, they need to be smart moves, but it's time, imo
