The Asst. GM's comments regarding Frost and York:

Flyers prospects Morgan Frost and Cam York are progressing, but there’s no rush to call them up, says assistant GM

(... SNIP ...)

So there it is. They'll be up after this road trip is done.

It's a known and accepted fact: No Devil's uni's in the history of the franchise have ever looked aesthetically pleasing.

This cap space that Saint Ronnie allegedly created is a falsehood when you look at the RFA that needs to be signed.

Always an excuse for Saint Ronnie. He failed. Accept it. He had no plan. Oh my bad draft and develop. Then pray and hope your picks hit. The same plan for every team. What a brand new concept he created. Wasn't give a chance is a total crock of fn schit.

Doesn't happen overnight. So can this be applied to the current GM?

- hello it's me 2050


the only year he created cap space was the year Jori was waived due to coke and simmonds was traded......right back to no room the next year. Need to look at how much space we had to start the season, not the ending space.

- Peter Richards

actually you need to look at how they ended the year with how much cap space they had no? As that is what you have to spend once the off season starts ?

not exactly. the cap space to end the 17-18 season is different than the start of the 18-19 season.


also hextall was released in Dec of 18. so that year that ended with us having the open space...was a mix of him and Fletch.

fletch traded wayne to open up the space. hex had to bury Macdonald to be cap compliant didn't he.

The year he signed jvr the reason there was cap space at the end of the year was due to trades and waiving players like Jori. the rest of what you provided is opinion. Doesn't matter what the speculation was. he signed JVR...an aging player to a multi year contract. wasting a lot of the cap space he created. the needle was not moving.

how fast did the rangers or boston complete their retooling?

- Peter Richards


Well how else does a team create cap space? He also traded Hartnell and then bought out Umberger to create space.

So you can disagree with my opinion but what you haven't done is support that what I stated was hyperbole. You failed.

When 17/18 season is officially over that is how much cap space you have to spend for the following season. Do you not agree?

I've always hated the FLA trip, we always seem to go into vacation mode.
I see a possible long L streak ahead.
Hopefully Hart can stand on his everything and steal a game or 2 over next 3 games.

Hextall sucks
CF sucks

I feel like once Hextall rid us of the LeCavalier, Pronger and MacDonald deals. Fletcher came in, looked our roster and said “We don’t have enough large contracts on the verge of being dead cap space.”

I’m hoping hart can steal one as well. The fla trip is killer.

Scott and Comcast suck. At Xmas, they should make the ghost of Snider president supreme overlord of the team.

So now we’re reduced to arguing adjectives. Fine but saying he did it well. Or a very good job. No. He was average.

But good to know that very good is not equivalent to great…….lol sure thing. Keep spinning.
