Oh nevermind. I’m thinking Fedotov. Too many Eastern Europeans to keep track of.

The Erik Johnson signing is on Torts dinasour antics.

Torts doesn’t have anything to do with this signing. This has Briere written all over it. Johnson and Torts never met before the trade deadline. Johnson and Briere played together in Colorado.

Seattle signing Montour and Stephenson.

Agreed. He and DB are friends. I am not going to worry about EJ whatsoever. Nothing more than a depth signing.

That one was reported by reputable sources. I stopped listening to Ek the first week I was on this site lol

I never thought it made sense for the Flyers to get Chychrun, I would rather have Buium ;-)

Andrea, York, Drysdale, Attard, Zamula and Ginning ... you keep wallowing in that pot of misery ... good luck with that!
- jd250

no misery at all. you are just a down right fool.

do the flyers not have enough vets to "help" players get acclimated to the nhl? why do they need another corpse?

of that group maybe 3 will be on the nhl roster. so funny mentioning attard ginning and andrae as they do not factor in the equation at all. not in any way; unless injuries.

not even entertaining anymore how much just flat out blow this team. embarrassing.

Two 30+ guys who are unlikely to look as good outside of their Cup winning teams.

So much for the rebuild. How many 30-something guys does Danny want on the roster?

Raise the bar my guy.

John Tortorella coached Erik Johnson during the World Cup of Hockey in 2016.

I am 100% ok with the Johnson signing. Means Risto won't be ready for the season and it blocks talent and other free agents from coming in.

Which reminds me yet again… why the eff did they wait so long to have surgery? Ugh.

The problem I have with your assessment is you are basing it all on the elite prospects rankings, which is nothing more than fantasy. Beckett-Sennecke was ranked 13th and he went at 3. Buium was ranked 4th and he went 12th. Luchenko was ranked 20th and he went 13th. Is this really a reach? I think not! Would Luchenko been there if the Flyers were picking 17th? I don't know and niether do you. There is eveidence that Luchenko would have been gone before 20 if the Flyers did not select him. The Flyers wanted a center and they took the center they believed was the best option given they could not trade up, its really that simple.

As far as Briere, you are right, he has done squat so far. I don't know yet if he is a smart executive or not. I am just not going to come on here and bash Briere when the off season has just started, and he has done some good things already, like accumulating 6 picks in the frst two rounds of the next draft - something rebuilding teams do.

I presume Eric Johnson is there for depth and to hepl the younger players adapt to the NHL. Signing him actually gives me encouragement that more young players will be on defense for the Flyers this season.

How is anything he said from elite Prospects? You have stated this as a comeback multiple times this week, and it appears to be wrong.

Can confirm now that PHI has signed Xavier Bernard to an AHL contract.

It's not a rebuild!!!!

WTF that makes it hard to move at the TDL...is that a rebuild move?

Exactly, why extend him now? You can always try to move for assets at the deadline.
