There's a league rule that the night before a game there's an 11:30 curfew.

I wasn't aware of that but there it is.

They've been playing him on the 3rd line most of the season. He's like the Tyler Myers of forwards.

One of the radio hosts in Winnipeg called him a third line wing and said they should dump him just to improve the team with his absence.

In that case, we've got one shiny, low-cost Zac Rinaldo sitting here...

That seems to be the concensus.

And I think they're the same age so it would be youth for youth.

They should have moved him last summer. They've waited this thing out and now his value is probably as low as its ever been

They just need to give Zac a chance to play with top players.

I dont think anyone would have traded for Mike Richards with that contract....Could have sworn i read something earlier this season that Flyers almost pulled off a trade for E. Kane.

Richards would have just been a salary dump at best. Kane could have brought back a really nice return last summer.

So, in make believe land:
The Flyers have not signed VL, and have ~$5M extra in space.
LA uses a CBO on Richards, who expresses an interest in coming back to Philly.
What do you offer him contract-wise, if anything at all.

i still think he fetches a pretty good return if they moved him now.

They have options. Rinaldo or Adams.

The hilarity of the brazen passion
for spare part winger Zachary Kassian

Posits the best and worst combined
of a rotten core that belies the rind

So here it goes without ado
A simple breakdown for you to chew

Zachary Kassian is a waste of space
Redundant, worthless, no change of pace

Bright and shiny, and they're on cue
A subset of fans without a clue

Barely a figment a month ago,
Now the demands for Kassian grow

Patience a virtue long abandoned
Rational logic immediately disbanded

Summer: A plan! Let's ride it out
Develop youth, establish more clout

Winter: We're doomed! Clean the house!
We'll ne'er win a cup without Kassian and Crouse!

Perhaps, for once, we'll ourselves restrain
Enjoy our Jake, Claude, Steve, and Wayne

And know that hope on the horizon glows
But not with Kassian, who invariably blows.

And now comes the time, we all must learn
The journey starts now sans Braydon Coburn
