Yes the Flyers do need a top LW however they also need a top D man. Why is it that nobody on this message board recognize that. So basically give away two or three assests for a LW and still have no top D!!!!

Go back a few days, when the Coyotes said everyone not named Shane Doan was "touchable"...loads of us talked about going after OEL or Yandle.

I'm far more willing to "overpay" for a Dman than a winger, but both are needs

He's recently back from a broken knee cap, I think that may make him a borderline top 10 pick unless he picks things up as the season goes on.

I know what has been said, I just haven't watched him

Need to see more as well, especially when he hits his stride

Missed the 3rd and am just getting caught up now.. So Cooter had a breakaway in OT and didn't score? Tell me that he at least got a good shot away and Halak had to rob him.

He was pulling a train behind him, so that was pretty cool to watch.

It's funny how we all thought "what the hell is Vandevelde doing on this team" but he actually could be a solid 4th line player moving forward. Damn he has more goals then Read.

Schultz isn't far behind either

Way to under sell White crushing Martin's face !

No idea what his current contract is, but I definitely bring him and PEB back next season. And hopefully we're light an expensive veteran contract or two as well.

Nope.

I think hextall has done some solid things to start. Could have a solid 4th line with Bellemare, Vandevelde and White moving forward.

I actually really like what I've seen from White. A million times better upgrade in there than Rinaldo!

Not only is he gritty, but he seems to have a brain in his head too...

And more left handed.

Evander Kane isn't even a Flyer yet and I want the Flyers to get rid of him.

what kind of topsy turvy world is this where we're getting trolled by islander fans

he was about out of gas, or at least looked that way to me, got off a clean shot. he was a bit rushed with the defender right behind him and from the behind the net replay it looked like it glanced off halak's blocker. i knew he wouldn't score.

Nobody is trolling just having fun with the clutterbuck photo because i know a bunch of the guys on here hate him I was happier that you didn't get the two points because you guys are dangerous and don't want you guys anywhere near a playoff spot

Don't lie, you already have your jersey on order.

don't get excited. solid 4th line players that are capable of contributing on the board are irrelevant and don't make any difference to the team winning.

seriously. what a (frank)ing hack. i'd trade him in a heart beat for mike richards.

Maybe Leight...

Simmonds: Overrated.

Simmonds has his limitations...but overrated?

Quick is too, in case you were wondering.

Quick has risen to the occasion in the playoffs, so it inflates the overall view of him.

Well who needs that? Rising to the occasion in the playoffs! Lame.

Vukota, George Bush Sr. was the U.S. president when the Islanders last won even a single round in the playoffs .

Without improving the team D -- 23rd in GAA -- and especially the overly aggressive and risk-taking PK -- 72.9%, dead last -- the Islanders will be making tee times, surgery appointments and IIHF World Championship travel plans about two weeks after the Flyers do.
