Ullmark expected to hit market... Interesting. Strong option but too expensive for us? Is he expecting starter role (and money)?
- cdearth23



Depends. If he wants to be a starter there are only so many spots and they seem to be filling fast.

TSN has not posted the Flyers signing of Yandle, I wonder if the deal is really happening?

I'd say so.

He seems to have the most interest after Grubauer.

I like him, but not that much.
- Glak18


Agreed. Johnny will get his goals but at what cost? Unless we could unload JVR and another player instead of TK. Not going to happen. Hope Chuck stays out of it.

I think if you give him a little less than what Seattle paid Dreiger, that can fit into the Flyers budget. I mean Dreiger has proven himself a lot more than Ullmark IMO.

OMG. Did they give him that?
- Hextall271

Yes, for at least 4 years of his new deal.

So the Leafs think Mrazek is the guy over Andersen? Do they have another goalie I’m not aware of? That’s a big step down IMO

I think the Flyers should have the inside track on getting Kuemper from Arizona since they have the young goalies in their system, plus they seem to have a good relationship with that org having traded Ghost already.
- jd250



His cap hit though.... That is a LOT of money to pay for 2 goalies.

No thanks on Goudreau, do we really need another small forward in this group.

Only way to win the cup -- look at the Washington Redskins receiving corps in the 80s -- The smurfs were too small but they won the SB

Is it though? Hart will probably sign a 2 year deal with an AAV of about $3M, and Kuemper makes $4.5M, so that is $7.5M for two goalies which seems reasonable to me.

Zadorov to CAL is for a 3rd rounder.

Agreed, we saw what Mrazek was here, he is at best an average goalie, whereas I think Anderson is better that average.

Reports out of Voorhees Township that a man dressed in a Darth Vader costume broke into the Philadelphia Flyers team offices on Wednesday morning and made off with the fax machine. Flyers general manager Chuck Fletcher expressed exasperation, "Unfortunately, this brazen act has left us unable to sign any old veteran players. We'll have no choice but to play the kids". A light saber was left at the scene. More at 11.

Re-signing Sanheim and Hart is going to cost AT LEAST 7m, more likely 8m. That leaves less than 4m of cap space.

Halak only cost 1.5M + bonus potential of $1.5 - maybe we follow this lead

Kinda weird how the iron man streak is subject to coach's decision. If he doesn't miss games for injury or personal reasons, it should continue, IMO. If you're not gonna count getting benched for the POs against him, then the same should apply for the regular season.
- Tomahawk


VDV had quite the iron man streak with the Flyers. Is his streak still current?

Yep. Im not sure who we would trade for Kuemper to move out the necessary cap space to cover that 4.5
