Just have a feeling they are going to over pay to sign Jake Allen- probably a 2 year deal. Not sure what VAN is doing trying to extend Demko. Doubt Briere goes back to Verbeek for a third time to acquire another roster player from the Ducks. If it is supposedly “go time” next summer, this regime will have a hard sell with another team in the top 7. Goaltending was absolutely awful last season. Ersson still has not been able to have a complete season with a save % above .900.

look at hos career numbers at every stop since he became a pro.

I’m not sure, if I’m Allen, I don’t want to take a run at the Cup in EDM if they’re offering and there’s reason to think they will. I’m really dodgy on Demko, plus you’d have to trade for him. Allen looks like the most solid choice, which is what the Flyers need here. After that, there’s a problem. I thought D and goal was the priority fix this off season. Dwindling cap space makes solving both problems seem less likely. At least get one fixed.
I do wonder if the Isles trade Dobson to try and get back into the top 5. I do believe the smoke they really like Hagens. Recently hired GM can make this type of move and be applauded for the aggressiveness of such a move.
Bill would yo roll the dice on matt murray instead of overpaying Allen… he was healthy this year good ahl numbers. last chance can be a good motivator. worse case he helps you get a better pick
Looks like the new CBA taking effect in 26-27 will include an 84 game schedule, with 4 preseason games, contracts maxed out at 7 years for resigning players and 6 years for UFA’s switching teams. A salary cap will also by in effect during the playoffs. The regular season will start the last week of September.
Sure, goaltending and the D look disastrous but the forward lines have some interesting potential if all goes well with the top draftees:
Cates-Zegras-Michkov
Tippett-Couturier-Konecny
Foerster-Luchanko-#6
Open-Open-HathawayI don’t dislike the looks of that once we’re into the season.
Cates-Zegras-Michkov
Tippett-Couturier-Konecny
Foerster-Luchanko-#6
Open-Open-HathawayI hope they don’t press #6 into the lineup right away. Keeping Jett around to begin the season put him behind the 8-ball in a critical development season.
Cates-Zegras-Michkov
Tippett-Couturier-Konecny
Foerster-Luchanko-#6
Open-Open-Hathawaywhy do you continually leave brink put of every lineup you post? he is a lock unless traded. Abols will be the 4th line unless they sign a free agent. Pelletier still in the mix one would guess. maybe add that shabonov.
whoever they take at 6 and the Jett I pray are returned to whatever team they need to be returned too.

I don’t see them signing Cates and then not playing him at center. The smart move would be to not rush Luchanko or whoever is the 6th pick.I would not be too sad and would actually prefer Luchanko go back to Juniors for one more season. They rushed him last season when he was clearly not ready.

Brink and Pelletier have a good chance to be on the opening night roster.

He was a first round pick who was exposed to 4 NHL games. He was sent back down. If he stayed up I could see and argument for rushing him.

a good chance lol. he is s fucking lock. mind boggling to think otherwsie

As it stands now yes. I was thinking if we signed Shabanov what that may mean for Brink/Pell. Brink would play over Pelletier. It’s also the Flyers. What most think should/will happen doesn’t always.
For free agents: Just because it’s the Flyers, I could see them targeting Trent Frederic.
I would be interested in signing Ryan Lindgren.
If they sign Shabanov, call it a summer for signings.
freddy reupped with the oilers last week
He’s listed as a UFA yet?
nevermind, just announce he signed
