ParticipantHe would have been nice but at least we will see more of our guys. silver lining.

ParticipantAbsolutely right, thanks. I get the flyers haven’t won cups but if the argument is we just simply can’t draft and produce nice players it’s not accurate. Whether we can find a way to win with them is another story though.

ParticipantIsles get Shabanov. Wow.

ParticipantVladar is below the .900 save percentage benchmark and is no proven workhorse. Not much to say here. The biggest need fill is the most disappointing. He was really good down the stretch in occasional duty. Somebody on the Flyers likes him though.
I think the key here is the two years. Lyon also got two years and apparently wanted to come back.
Either way, all these signings help with our chances for McKenna.
Pettersen also got a deal with Minny

ParticipantYou’ve made it your whole personality. When you criticize nothing moves so you have something to whine about. All credibility lost. It shows your complete lack of understanding of what’s going on lol
Flyers suck! See you here tomorrow!
black_francis
Participantyou do the research. you are the one who brought it up not me. I just made a simple statement.
speaking of drafting and development. if my math is correct, since 1990 they have drafted 12 fwds who have put up 60+points. half did it elsewhere. All 1st rd picks except for 2. Is that good drfating and development?
try to keep up, old man. your memory is slipping. Come talk to me when you compare it to other teams in the league. Until then, go play some power chords.

ParticipantIf you care to do the research you inadvertently make the flyers look like drafting/developing wizards. bravo.
you posed the question – now you do the work like I did. I assume that’s why you disappeared for 2 days lol

ParticipantYikes, Danny gave Vladar a partial no-trade lol.
lol were we trading him at some point during his extensive 2 year tenure? And for what?
what’s the opposite of approving everything the flyers do? It’s just as pathetic.
You can cherry pick a negative spin on every signing in the league yesterday. You lose credibility when you make it your personality. when you let completely rational moves eat away at you, you show your hand. It’s not healthy lol.
Giving Vladar a partial no-move is like Susan signing George’s pre-nup.

Participantdo not care what other teams do.
what insurance policy? yet you call me clueless.
answer this for me, why not just roll with what you have inhouse if these are such vanilla signings? what is the actual benefit?
You cannot be helped.
black_francis
Participantall you poppy then yo can tell us how good the flyers have been. despite the results saying otherwsie
lol you won’t like the answer because you’ll look foolish – as per usual.
black_francis
Participanteither bring in players who can possibly help with the future (zegras) or stand pat. what do I know as I am clueless
low commitment, vanilla insurance policy signings. no one is holding anyone back. every team does this and it’s sad this needs to be explained to you.
black_francis
Participantwhat’s the flyers goal after yesterday? what is the plan? they sign guys who will really not improve the team. they are still going to be bad. why not then just evaluate what you have in-house. keep the cap space to for down the line to see if any deals pop up or to broker a deal to get additional assets/players back.
just more spinning in the hamster wheel.
You are so clueless lol
you still need to ice a team. they got warm bodies for 1-2 year deals. Who do they need to evaluate at the nhl level?

ParticipantAgain with the Brink love.
i get that he is likely the odd man out but I do think rose to the occasion under torts. that brink-cates-foerester line was really good for stretches. he showed more tenacity than I initially thought he was capable of.
black_francis
ParticipantAny word on Shabanov? Reading that the Rags are the frontrunner now.
god i hope not. haven’t watched a single game of his and know nothing about him other than he was a finalist for MVP in the KHL – but damnit I want him.
a guy like Brink probably wouldn’t be too sad to see the flyers miss out on him though.
