I wonder if there is any possible deal that could send Streit to Detroit with Mantha coming back our way. Maybe we take back an expiring contract and throw in a 3rd. It wouldn't be the most unfair offer out there I'm sure.

True. There were also concerns that the extra year would hurt coburns return also.

Streit is older. But he can run a power play and is still capable in his own end. Plus he is owed only 4 mil in real money next year. I'd be surprised if they get a 1st but not shocked

Most contenders would be more concerned about cap space than salary. Tagging space also is a factor.

Certainly, but I wouldn't give up a first for him.

Also have to consider we could always package one of our 2nds or 3rds with Streit to get a 1st if teams aren't biting. Very anxious to see what Hexy will do regardless

Anything is possible. We'll see.

Nice, but sorry, definitely not happening

Stolarz called up.

sounds like Anthony Stolarz is your Philadelphia Ice Hockey Flyers backup goaltender tonight

Montreal would be a team I would be eyeing right now. After such a good start and now possibly missing the playoffs they could soon be desperate to make a move.

One thing I've enjoyed about this and last season leading up the TDL is just a feeling of almost certainty Hexy is going to do something to help us succeed in the near future. That only a deal will be made to take a step forward. Seems we can kiss the head scratching Homer days goodbye.

Big mistake. Going to miss Structure


I mean really. What is anyone not named Gretzky going to bring that umberger can't do?

Umberger - no goals in 50 games - will sit tonite

oh no!!!

Haha I was going to say the same thing! Also, we were tied if you look at the time.. Means we'll have to go to a 3 on 3 OT to decide this!
- Hextall271

sounds great. if we go to the gimmick to ultimately decide I say we call it a draw like the old days

At least they waited until he went 50.

Flyers goalies must be Italian

Ok.

So I wonder how lines will roll out.

doesn't matter with a knucklehead varisty coach like HACKstol at the helm

Hexy made a bet when we first acquired RJ.

Between this and Cruz's win in Iowa, I am starting to think there really is a God.
