Having watched Grossman for last 2 seasons, he reminds me of ex-Flyer Marcus Ragnarsson: solid, no-frills. Not as good with puck as Rags.

Good 3rd pairing guy, now who sits MAB or Guts?

Not a bad price for him, either.

WOW! that is great. I was so worried we'd have to give up an NHL player. Good job Homer. I do think that Bill must be getting a commision out of this. Someone should look into that

wonder if this trade was in the works and homer pulled the triger due to mezzy going down?

I still think another move or two is coming. One more dman maybe a forward. Package deal

TRADE: #Flyers have acquired (D) Nicklas Grossman from Dallas in exchange for a 2012 2nd rd pick(from LA) & 2013 3rd rd pick(from MIN).Flyers got grossman

Without giving up a roster player. woo.

That probably rests on Pronger's availability heading into next year.

Or Carle's future in Philly.

Or neither.
- tangent_man

Even with a 100% raise next year, he'd still be paid less than Carle was this year.

His cap hit for the full year was less than Bob's $1.65mm

There's still plenty of cap room to add another piece.

i was a big ragNARsson fan. was bummed when he didn't come back.if grossman can play as well he did, i'm good with that, especially without giving up a player. don't like that we sent 2 picks though. would have preferred a pick/ahl project. oh well. the cup is so OURS.

They still have a second rounder this year I believe. Or is it Florida's option if it's this year, or next year.

Grossman seems like a steady Eddie for a reasonable price.

Next time you're negotiating a deal as GM, you can decide what it takes to get it done.

Good pick up.
The "oft injured" part is troublesome.
But they needed another vet (or two) on D.

Wow, Bill solid call.
Gaustad is next, as you predicted!

A couple of people noticed him getting dinged the other night, but he finished the game. Not sure what body part, though.
