It’s been very quiet so far as relates to European players. Last year, there were some hints related to Abols and Eklind. This year, not so much.
taking on the full hit as you said is fine as no long term commitment.
What do you think the return going to Vancouver would be.
As for Allen what type of term do you think he would require? 3 years at 4 per?
Demko does not have a NMC. I think the biggest thing, other than the obvious injury risk on a goalie with a high cap hit, is that you’ll probably have to absorb all of it with no retention. But’s a UFA next summer, so it’s not a long-term commitment.
Yes, I think they have interest in ISaac.
I would not be shocked,especially with the Vancouver connection and one year til UFA status, if the Flyers gambled on trying to acquire Thatcher Demko. If not, I could easily see them signing Jake Allen.
The only value of Ellis’ contract is for teams that need to reach the cap floor and if the Flyers eat half of it plus add something.
Thanks. Seeing the direction the flyers want to go will you be surprised if they go hard after Tavares or Duchesne if they make to to free agency. These guys will have many other options though the flyers can overpay them on say a 3/4 year deal.
question is how much money it would take as both I assume want to chase a cup.
Does Demko have a NTC? Hypothetically what do you think it would take? Would they want Ersson as a backup as obviously flyers have to add.

No. Chris did not like TOrtorella from the get-go. Didn’t want him as the coach, and gave it two seasons before he effectively lost the room (and it proved right).

Therians biased view is already getting old. I bet if you go back and look at the last 3 press conf for AV, Torts, Tocchet they re virtually identical as to what was said by the flyers and the presI was thinking the same thing. He probably said the same things about Torts when he was hired. I’d like Bundy back on the Flyers broadcast. He was good doing color. I’m not crazy about his current hot takes persona.

Bill we need some conversation, so:
– do you see the flyers pursuing Howard from Tampa assuming he would sign? flyers have the assets to get a deal done. What would you give up for him? Oilers 1st and a 3rd (assuming tampa wants picks? Would you move Barkey (plus a pick) for him?
– when Briere said he had agents calling and talking him (well wouldn’t that be tampering if talking about current players?) was he possibly referring to the agent of Cutter and Buium? IMO torts being the coach was a factor in Cutter not wanting to play here. Then it had a trickle down effect. Any thoughts on that?
– what goalie do you see them pursuing?
– what free agents do you see them going after and actually signing.
– does the Ellis contract have any real trade value?
– this tocchet will draw free agents is also funny. I get it from the flyers end as they have to sell something.
