Nic Deslauriers is the classic "Flyers Culture" add. He hits and fights a lot. 5v5 liability. And Braun sucks! Again what is the plan here?? This is a listless ship, just taking roster spots away from younger players that if ready could take the year developing in the NHL! Unless the goal is to tank for Bedard .. then I am all in!

I was wondering when you were gonna show up to defend Fletcher.

Good luck explaining this one Bill

Nd for 2 mil per year isn’t bad. Rather have him than muchstach guy at mil.

Really - he's still a good 3rd pairing Dman. Rangers who went far last year thought so too.
- RustyPipes

Don’t acknowledge him

Surprised Oskar got 2.5.
- Peter Richards

but @ 3m he need to be bought out.

Bill Meltzer: Free Agency: A "Reverse Kotkaniemi"?

Lets play rapid fire. Can't wait for your answers.

What was Fletcher's backup plan after he whiffed on plan A?
How's Chris Stewart doing on the player development side? Don't hear anything about him.
With a third straight bottom feeder season ahead, what is there to look forward to with this franchise?
What are the odds Ryan Ellis Flyers career is a total of 4 games?
Why was a cancer survivor, great locker room guy shipped out, while a racist homophobe was brought in?

but @ 3m he need to be bought out.

He’s living like a King, getting paid and signed another ticket. Moving to Cali, avoiding Torts. Life is good for Oskar

- SuperSchennBros

I can't defend the indefensible ...

For example, San Jose right away signed Lindblom to a $5M deal for 2 years. You mean to tell me Fletcher could not have traded Lindblom with 1 year left on this deal to San Jose for a 6th round pick?

Supposedly a lot of teams were after him.
- Tomahawk

And we couldn’t trade him contract? So we buy him out so he can sign basically himself to basically the same deal?

If we can’t get better we need to get tougher

Hey Chiarot making less than RR (4x $4.75M)

I can't defend the indefensible ...

What has stopped you the last few months? What’s new to you is just another day to us.

Idk who is worse there, Chiarot is brutal . The less cap hit please

How's Chris Stewart doing on the player development side? Don't hear anything about him. I thought he was gone.
With a third straight bottom feeder season ahead, what is there to look forward to with this franchise? Chuck has to get fired sooner, no?
What are the odds Ryan Ellis Flyers career is a total of 4 games? 5%
Why was a cancer survivor, great locker room guy shipped out, while a racist homophobe was brought in? so we had room for Nic Deslauriers on wing.... and Chuck had some more picks to spend.

Wow, this is gonna be a long running joke. This is below buffoonery. Are we even allowed to talk about Ron Hextall after today? I mean Hextall almost lost Malkin and Letang….but he didn’t…

I would not criticize that which had not happened yet. Unlike some on here, I try to be objective and hopeful. However when Fletcher resigned Risto I voiced my disapproval, I was hoping they would trade Risto. When Fletcher did not get more for G I voiced my disappointment, in fact it was others defending Fletcher stating he did the best he could. I stated I hoped that Fletcher would just build through the draft this year and next year and stay away from dumb trades and free agent signings, but alas he could not resist, and I will hammer him for it!

They bought out this guy:



To sign this:

damn, so much whining on here. lol

ND is a decent signing. Not great, mind you, but definitely adds a bit of needed snarl. I'm not crazy about the Braun signing, but it's pretty minor imo.

I'll wait a few days to see how things shake out. Go Flyers.

The fact that Hextall is still mentioned here and has been gone almost 4 years is ridiculous. It's just a deflection so people talk less about the complete incompetence of this organization.

Yes but what was the price to keep them?? That Malkin deal is comical IMO.

@EvolvingWild
You could make the argument that Deslauriers is the worst offensive player in the league. Could also make the argument that he's the worst player in the league.
