Wildschwein had asked in the last thread. You’d move Mayfield!?!
Who would you replace him with?


Rasmus Ristolainen as he will be UFA next season. He has good numbers. Again, I move Mayfield only if the offer is to good to pass up or it really addresses the team needs.

Given the CAP Space you could just add Ristolainen next year.

Pullock Pelech
Dober Ristolainen
Mayfield Salo

That is not a bad backend.

The only D-man I want moved is Chara.. he just passed whoever for games played.. let's hang a friggin banner up for him and call it a career.

#Isles Barry Trotz says Kyle Palmieri (IR/lower body) hasn't suffered a setback but he hasn't progressed to 100 percent. Estimated he's around 80-85 percent, which Trotz admits is somewhat frustrating to Palmieri.

Can’t stand Ristolainen. He was terrible with Buffalo and is no good with Philly. Guy doesn’t play defense.

Thank u.. My guess is if he was playing better before he got hurt/sick he would be back already... Looking like a Ladd contract at the moment.

Heard it was one of those nagging injuries that won't heal without rest which also hurts your game conditioning.

I did that last time and bet $50 on the game so it would be free... They lost 6-1 to the Florida Panthers.. game cost me $55.

Don't bet and just pay the $5.99.

Jesus…I’d rather have Aho back than get Ristolianen. And, you know how I feel about Aho.

I try to stay away from a BlueTaco. If it ain't pink I'm not going near it!

He also screened their goalie on two of our goals last night.

Barry Trotz says he doesn’t expect any lineup changes tonight for the rematch in Philadelphia.

(That said, I would guess it’s Varlamov in net).

Don’t ever google Hope Solo either. I’m scarred from that.

Flagged on accident…why are those two buttons right next to each other?

Flyers announce Kevin Hayes is expected to be out 3-4 weeks after surgery this morning to drain fluid from his adductor region.


No Hayes tonight or next Tuesday

My point is comparable to Nick Leddy. I was not looking for a defensive defenseman. I was looking for more offense on the back end. And you do not know how he would in Trotz system.

I am not saying he is the next Bobby Orr or Norris trophy winner but if you add him. he is an upgrade to what we have.
