I'll still wear mine
Just won't be getting the funny looks as I wear it and grumble about the need to clear him from in front of our goalie. |

Bill- When do they usually release the numbers for the new kids attending camp? Has there been an organizational change in assigning numbers since Hexy took over? I remember Coots was given #14 in his first camp which was a clear sign they had him pegged for the big club. Not sure if they assigned it early or gave it to him before preseason ended. Any insight? Any other examples? I know more recently most of the kids had to switch numbers after they made the team (TK, Provy, Patrick). Thanks. |

I believe they have to wear their prospect number until they are officially announced to have made the NHL roster or even later if they are a tweener. |

Draftees wear 70-99. Undrafted rookies wear triple digits |

I think Vecchione was the highest paid Phantom last year, apart from Matt Read. |

Bill, do you see anyone that can fill that 3c roll either in the farm system or FA. Also, after tonight I will have $650 in donations for the 50k bike ride Sunday to hopefully reach my goal of $1000 by Sunday. I urge all the followers you have on here to donate $10/$20 & you will not only get to your $1000 goal you will exceed it. |

I for one am taking a firm stand that JVR should move back to 21 where he belongs. |

Who would you consider the best college free agent in the last two decades? Not counting drafted players who failed to sign. |

Bobby Boucher had a great shot but couldn’t find his overall game sadly. |

Meh, he has been wearing 25 for the majority of his career and for most of his good years.

Among Flyers, Matt Read. Two seasons of 20+ goals, solid defensively even after the goals stopped coming. |

Maybe Laughton fears 25 so he don't get traded like Cousins did. |

It occurs to me there can be a lot of fanfare to these signings and mostly they become AHL/NHL swing players even the hyped ones.
Tyler Bozak and Matt Read have been two of the most successful ones I could come up with. They both carved out pretty good NHL careers for themselves. |

Croatia/England is a hell of a game.
Some physical stuff too that is being let go. |

Would you? |

No, that would shorten Giroux's career too much |
