That one's easy. Future hall-of-famers, but only on teams that are really bad. Or middling players on teams that are really good.

All other depictions are false and will be admonished.

So hear me out folks.

The Devils are bad. They may beast us later in the week, but they're really, really bad. They will be having a firesale by the end of the TDL (you should know where this is going by now).

The Flyers have had a bunch of players playing for that 11th/12th forward spot. Bunnamann, NAK, Rubstov, Kase, Andreoff, Stewart, Twarynski, and Frost. Some have looked okay, but no one has locked it down.

SO...what if...WHAT IF we bring back our dear old friend Wayne Train, assuming NJ eats 50% and we don't have to move anything other than a late pick? I don't know if it's even feasible with the cap, but would you bring him back as a 4th line luxury player if possible?

I feel like you 100% read my reply wrong...

I was confirming that I thought what you said was a great point and asking how many games he played in over the past 10.

So here's a question. Let's say Patrick doesn't come back at all this season and is questionable for next. He's currently on LTIR and he's an RFA after this season. How does that work for next season? Do we keep his rights but he comes off LTIR? Do we sign him to a new contract and put him on LTIR?

The Flyers would have to tender him a qualifying offer. If he signs, or if they work out an extension, they have the option to move him to LTIR if his symptoms persist. If he doesn't sign the QO or an extension, the Flyers retain his rights, he has no impact on their cap, but I believe he counts as one of the 50 contracts.

I don't. If there is a need on the 4th line, it's at the center spot.

Nothing to apologize for as it is easy to lose context or tone via a post.

Anyway, I think Hart played 1 game in that period ? Haven't had a chance to look yet so going off memory.

I'd make Upshall and Kukkonen available for the right deal.

I like where you are going..
Blow up the team, rebuild it around the three you mention.

Trust the process.
