It’s not outrageously awful but he makes more than Reinhart. Briere seems to lose a little on every contract he signs which does add up. Philadelphia isn’t and really has never been a destination for players. They just get paid a lot here.

Sorry, but I strongly disagree. The only good option was trading him, not this crap

So in 3 years when Michkov gets his extension, as long as he’s everything we hope him to be, the Flyers will be paying $20 mil for 2 RW, and one of them will be 22 and the other will be 30 with 6 years left on his contract.

There’s more thought in this post than in the entire Flyers think tank. All they do is shoot themselves in the foot.

They land Michkov and say hold my beer. Let’s sign the guy he’s replacing to a massive deal.

He makes $125k more than Reinhart who took a discount to keep a SC winning team together as much as they can.

What a train wreck. I was holding out hope that they would come to their senses. I don’t like this deal at all and I doubt it will age well. Hopefully there isn’t a no trade clause. Who in their right mind would take on this contract? Just a bad move.

8 years and close to $9 per too much. I think I'm done. This is a huge mistake, and I don't have enough time left to waste it watching this shlt go on and on.

Good luck guys.

Don't forget OT making $6.2m until 2032.

I am talking about market value. It’s makes no sense for this team to pay him but it’s likely what he would get on the open market.

Flyers always overvalue their own. It’s baked into the franchise.

I’m starting to think the Briere family and humor don’t go well together. ♿️

The Konecny extension was great humor for some 😉

Every time I voice my displeasure of comments and moves the Flyers make in the comments section on Facebook, Joel Farabee keeps hitting the like button.

Maybe. Haha.

I'm just saying I think people are blowing it out of proportion. It was said jokingly. Everyone there laughed. The entire press conference was not about ND.

Was never a rebuild and this is the nail in the coffin to anyone that said it was. Good game.

If you are referring to me, I am just pointing out some facts. I am not a doom and gloom guy. Are there things to be optimistic about, yes. but not many.

Just can't stand teh constant female doging, sometimes reading this board is like dating, sometime they female dog and female dog which drives you to drink.

- WhiskeyMan

it was a general statement

facts are this organization is incompetent and out of touch.

TK 8x8.75

Disappointing. Hope it doesn't look as bad as the Captain's contract in a couple of years.

How much would a free agent second line winger of TK skill cost in 3-5 years?

All I’m going to say is, I don’t like the extension in both cost and term. I like TK but there is absolutely no question he was more valuable in a trade. With this said, we knew it was coming. Nobody should be surprised. I have no plans of coming on here all day everyday complaining about something I only need to say I didn’t like one or two times. I’m still a fan. I’ll be ready to watch Michkov is October.

To be the 2nd line RW. Briere and Jones are as dumb as the rest. We all knew it was going to happen but it’s still (frank)ing unbelievable.
- hereticpride

If we are lucky he is productive for 4-5 years of this 8 year deal. But the 8 year deals always have an anchor ⚓️ risk. Hopefully another potential dead money anchor guy in Couturier will keep it going a couple of seasons at his usual standard.

yes it is. Speaks volumes about TK as well as could care less about winning along with the rest of the losers in this organization.

cant wait to hear the spin from the organizational guzzlers.
