I think so. If he didn't get a chance to play somewhere he may not of retired

I guess thats true. Now they have the guarantee.

I think they should let Umberger play out next season then buyout Amac before the '17-'18 season. At that point, they're free and clear of these bad deals with the exception of $1.6M

Don't feel like doing math.

Can we bring back AMac and Gagner now without a subsequent move? Capologists?

You would think, right? He's not long for the flyers, but at least it's not LHV

Because it's not realistic for Vinny to stop aging. He can't skate anymore.
- SuperSchennBros


If he can't skate anymore, then why are you insisting that the Flyers have to play him instead of calling up players? You're holding the Flyers to a different standard then you are Lecavalier.

I like how you're continuing this conversation 30 min after he's been traded. Seriously. Rejoice. Let bygones be bygones

If Hextall deals AMac and Umberger tonight, it'll be like that scene in the Godfather where Michael Corleone tells Carlo he's handled all outstanding family business.

Works for me, though if AMac can play just so-so next year they could probably trade him if they retain say 1.25 million. Some team may be willing to go for 3 years at 3.75 per

I really like that we can now move forward and start looking to fill the roster with some talent so that they don't have a team full of 4th line grinders.

Doesn't matter.

LA could've sent a picture of the (frank)ing Hollywood sign and that'd been alright.
