Where is JG?
- Deasr1

JG hasn't signed anywhere yet to my knowledge so maybe he is truly waiting on Chuck to make some more dumb moves.

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.
- rayc16

Pretty comical that he went to another team where the game plan is essentially sit tight and make small moves again

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.

The player that we deserve!

Flyers world class analytics staff at it again. I guess their internal data metrics just weight fighting/hit sumbudy!/goals against higher than most.

Hey Tomahawk, do you have an extra bag I could borrow? Don't worry, I can make my own eye holes ...

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.
- FlyerGuy

The german shepherd that poop on the logo has plenty of snarl. Why not put him on the 4th line?

Yes but what was the price to keep them?? That Malkin deal is comical IMO.
- jd250

they're giving the team the best chance to win while Sid's still there. I don't think they can win but a rebuild won't start until after Sid is gone.

Who cares. The window from them is closing and Sid wanted him back. If that's the case you get it done and then prepare for the end of those deals as a time to start rebuilding.

WTF has been the Flyers plan. I don't see an aggressive retool or a rebuild. I see a stuck in bullpoop with no actual plan.

My guess is Lou Lamoriello will once again take a steaming dump on the Flyers, some things never change!

Braun was resigned to get a draft pick back at the TDL.
- RustyPipes

Lmao. Thought the same thing.

This is going poorly.

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?
- jd250

Every GM knew Fletch had to make this kind of move. Why trade for a player that you can get for free?

I just don't think Malkin has much left. I would have looked to surround Sid with new talent to make a final run.

Our Nate Thompson signing of the year. Hope seeker starts as well. Jesus.

Not for free, if you are San Jose you are spending $5M instead of $3M, and a 6th round pick is just fodder anyway.

I honestly thought the post about Braun and ND was a joke....but this signing of ND has Dean Lombardi's fingerprints all over it...He drafted the guy as gm of the Kings.

What’s even worse is, I’m gonna have learn how to spell Deslauriers without cutting and pasting this name repeatedly…

You have no idea how this works do you

ND is a decent signing.
- FlyerGuy

I fail to see how he will help the Flyers win games.

(unless that's the point)

- PLindbergh31

nothing personal, bud ... but you complain just to complain. Knock yourself out, if you want. The constant complaining by so many on here is just not my style.

Big difference between justified criticism (of which there's a lot) and whining about every move or non-move. I just don't get it.

Ciao.

That’s the sad part. He’s trying to win games and made that signing

This guy told us to bank on it. Maybe he still signs here but if it was a done like he claimed, it would be done.

Chuck Fletcher is a meme at this point

I'm a little shocked he hasn't been trying to add draft picks.
