Any chance JVR is faking this concussion so he isn't traded to Toronto? Just throwin it out there..
- keatondixon

close, he doesn't want the nashville brass to get a good look at him bc he knows he's about to be traded for weber

guarantee he fakes another one on february 2

What goon did the Flyers sign? Were not talking about Shelley bc he does alot of things for this team, and he is a great person in the locker room. Plays his role to perfection when called on.

His intangibles are priceless. Anyone who thinks he is useless doesnt understand the game of hockey and the unity that is needed in the locker room to be successful.

Shelley is fully capable of skating a 4th line shift, he's sound defensively, strong along the wall, solid positionally. He's played 10 years in the NHL.

They are a fun team to watch.

Now that is speaking the truth. I see more positives from him than negatives. What team wouldnt want a Shelley?

Teams that already have a mascot?

He is still a top 5 dman in the NHL at 41 years of age. Just remarkable.

Dude you have to start being more positive. Every player the Flyers have signed, has a purpose for this team.

Didn't read through any posts and I may be way late on this but thought you guys may appreciate this like I did but did anyone else see this tweet (that was deleted) by Mike Richards?

So the NHL thinks we should all wear visors so why do we get penalized if we fight with them on? #whatajoke

(frank)ing hate him even on the Kings.. That is the dumbest logic I have ever seen.
- mrhattrick27

Yes his personality is a big reason for his departure.

I know. You are correct. I'm far too negative. I will find a positive in everything going forward.

He played 10 minutes against the Islanders. I agree, it's a conspiracy. JVR is pulling a fast one. Every time there's a rumor that he's going to be traded, he's going to have a concussion.

Well, guess we won't be trading JvR away.

Tim Gleason, here we come!

And the beat goes on.

That's a shame. I hope this kid get's it going eventually. He;s a heckuva hockey player and those with the ridiculous comments need to realize that.

Im 100% good with going after Gleason.
