ParticipantMarkstrom was pretty amazing vs. Carolina in that first OT in the elimination game. Best period of goaltending I’ve seen in a while. Of course, it’s only one period. I’m sure NJ would like to keep Allen, but the Flyers can offer more starts. With a solid base and incentives for starts, I think they could make Allen a nice offer if they targeted him.

Participant“Because Swayman signed an 8 year deal for 8.25aav. That is why they would have to trade for him.”
What are you offering the Bruins to get Swayman? A UFA signing looks like a simpler fix to me.

ParticipantSwayman seems in play but why trade for something you can sign free as a UFA?
“In what is a tale as old as the franchise, the Philadelphia Flyers had a goaltending issue during the 2024-25 season. A major goaltending issue.”
This article got that right.

Participant“I appreciate the insight on Berube and Bylsma.”
Thanks. I’m not certain who the next HC should be. I don’t know who these guys are as coaches, never played for them. I would think everybody’s preference, considering the roster, would be a “give the kid a chance” kind of coach.

Participant“I cannot remember the last time an assistant coach took over as head coach on a permanent basis and was successful.”
Berube won the Cup in St. Louis. Bylsma won the Cup in Pittseburgh.
