I do like the idea of immediately getting a solid d prospect that can be in the lineup right away and they desperately need a pp qb. If he can be a viable top 4 d then it’s probably a good trade.

We won t know the winner of this trade for years. I thought they would take a stab in free agency next summer to acquire a top pair Dman. This should allow them to eventually move Sanheim back to the left. Now I think they dabble in free agency to get a center.

I am not talking about Morgan Frost, dude. Your reply has nothing to do with Frost.

It does in regards to following a team so closely to be offended when a young unestablished middle 6 center get scratched.

The question is does Torts move Sanheim back to the left? I could be wrong, but I don't think Sanheim has played the right side this much in his career and is having a career year...

This is what you posted:
“That’s complete nonsense. No college kid or their family is following the day to day of an NHL team before they sign nor is Morgan Frost a household name that anyone would even care.”

My response was about the first part of your post. They absolutely follow the team and what they do.

The Suck Ducks colors are actually muted orange, crappy-ass beige and drab grey ... yup not a fan!

The gold and silver are just accents. It's mostly the same colors as the Flyers. Even the logo is kinda Flyers derivative:

Purposely trying to push buttons with sophomoric comments is not going to help your credibility get out of the toilet.

A career year offensively but not good defensively overall. The top pair has bled goals. Not a legit top pairing.

I don’t want them going into ufa unless it’s a real stud younger player that fits the window. Otherwise draft draft draft.

Briere quote:
“We were hoping that at some point he would change his mind,” Briere said of Gauthier. “He had already changed his mind. He looked at us at the draft and told us he was built to be a Flyer, wanted to be a Flyer, and then a few maybe months later told us that he didn't want to be a Flyer, didn't want to play for the Flyers. So, in our mind at first, we said we have to protect him because if he changes his mind again and it's out there that he doesn't want to play, it's going to be tough for him to put the uniform on. But when we realized that they refuse to talk to us now, it's been months, he didn't want to be a Flyer, didn't want to be in Philadelphia, it was time to make it happen.”


It is concerning to me that it reached the level of no communication for months...This whole situation is a bad look for the Flyers. A new low for the franchise that a prized pick does not even want to talk to the team. This crap happens to Buffalo, and Hartford...not Philly.


Regardless of how this shakes out with both Drysdale and Gauthiers careers, the Flyers should be terribly embarrassed that this has happened with a prospect.

Anyone, this was one of those games where the Flyers through away the structure to play pond hockey, and once again got schooled that they are not good enough to play pond hockey.

I didn't say he transformed into one of the best in the league, but he is having a career year. Not just points, but minutes and usage.

Is this what triggers you to go full Dexter, is JD acting up?

"Technically...."

Not sure the Ducks front office is much of an improvement over the Flyers for him.

I do love that Danny aired everything out now that the kid is gone. I think he just sent a strong message/set a tone that any prospects/agents that don’t want to be here better be ready to answer for it.
