Is this how the majority of Ducks fans are feeling?

Stunned… last time I checked, the NHL was a better league than college….

Jamie’s injury was freakish - He got plastered by Barbashev awkwardly into the end boards…

Then, Verbeek jerking him around into training camp on this contract contributed to his groin injury - full effort, every shift every minute..

Instantaneous, one-man breakout…

He can skate with anybody in this league easily…

And his edge work is phenomenal-

If the Flyers could somehow find a way to trade Ristolainen without too much damage. That could be an improved defense mix.

Didn't Michkov tell Arizona he wasn't playing for them, hence why they passed on him in the draft?

You are in the wrong place pal! We don’t let facts get in the way of a good rumor here!

That is an element that this team badly needs.

I swear Flyer fans dwell on former players more than an ex.

It is quite remarkable how quiet they kept this whole thing for what turns out to be a pretty loooong time.


Bundy and ASF saying Kevin Hayes had a hand in poisoning Gauthier.

- MBFlyerfan

what other spin will they employ to try to save face. Therian wants a job with the flyers so badddddddd.

Poisoned hm how is what I want to know? Did he tell it like it is with his experience with Torts?i Prior to Torts they tried ot make Hayes the face of the franchise. Doesn't pass the smell test to me.

Mor e mportnly whats Clarke have to say lol

Especially this day in age of social media. Even after Briere was talking to several teams and nothing was said about it.

Yeah yeah Drysdale, what's going on with Zegras? Money go to his head, too worried about which online "celeb" to hit on?

Someone please post the Cutter world junior highlights, I want a good laugh. Playmaker 😂
- ClaudeFather

Right, give the puck to Brindley and watch him motor in a goal ... I could do that too.

Thanks. You’ll love cutter if he decides to play there and doesn’t go prima donna. What I don’t like is that he wouldn’t Ben hear the flyers out and meet with them. Have some class. Thing is, he’s a kid and it’s probably the agent or someone else advising him

Not for nothing, this game would be 8-1 Penguins if not for Hart .. he is under seige in this game. Torts will not be happy. BTW, is Frost playing in this game?

It's going to be a high 2nd round pick in a much deeper draft. Anaheim can score all they want, they can't play defense.
- jd250


How do you know that? Anahiem had a good little run at the start of the season, and might, you know, continue to trend upwards.

They have tonnes of prospects, over $35 million in cap space this summer, and that's before a Gibson trade might happen....they could be improved..might even get up to the mid teens.

The draft pick is anything but guaranteed to be a high pick.

I do wonder now if Briere would be more willing to eat salary to move Risto. In theory, they have long term options in Bonk and Drysdale at RHD.

as cliff would say, makes you wonder why th eywould "give" him up....
- hello it's me 2050


I think Drysale, like Zegras, was involved in a contentious contrace negotiation this year before signing his 3 year deal in October. Maybe there was some bad blood there behind the scenes? Next year, you gotta think Carlson and Cutter will be a dynamic duo for years to come. But, if the dude don’t wanna play for the Flyers then screw him. Michkov wants to be a Flyer! That’s a good thing!

I’m sure young players and their parents/family see the Morgan Frost situation and are turned off. I don’t blame prospects for avoiding Torts. It won’t be the last time…..

Not a bad idea but maybe Sanheim & Drysdale as a 1st pairing will get us a chance to see Risto and York together again. That was fun a couple weeks ago.

Nothing is guaranteed, but I also love to play poker...I'll play the percentage it's going to be a good pick.
