He is younger than Jet by a 6 weeks. Don’t see that being a bad thing. Though get what you are saying.

Flyers need potential difference makers over safe players at this time. Whether he is a diff maker who knows. Taking the next 3rd line player won’t help much going forward to me.

They need to hit a home run no matter the pick. That is a fact. Anything less more staying in the same spot they have occupied for years.

Why the concern about being a late birthday? Wouldn’t that be a positive?

[furio16]

Would you take Hagans or Desnoyers Bill if that option is there?

[furio16]

Can you explain what 2 surpluses means.

I do not see the upside you see in any way, shape, or form.

[furio16]

Flyers are the next Florida. All the pieces are in place to make it happen. With their excellent management team only a matter of when not if.

[furio16]

Guys they traded to get Tkachuk were Florida draft picks. One a 100 point player.

Can you provide any insight as to who else he didn’t want around now that he is gone.

[furio16]

How is what I posted propping him up as a superstar?

He is a young vet who may not want a long term deal if he sees no path to contention. In that case he may want a short term deal. Then move on if he doesn’t like what he sees.

They have no one close to supplanting him.

How on earth you draw the conclusion I am making him sound like a superstar is very odd

[furio16]

Overall the Flyers D is trash with very little help on the way. Will take years to get a cup contending D. Many years.

“Hopefully, the team is constructed in such a way they can afford to let him walk as a UFA”

Maybe it’s me though seems you said let him walk.

[furio16]

Why would you let him walk? That makes no sense at all.

[furio16]

Also agree York would want a bridge. Test the coaching waters out first. See how the team is constructed in the next few years.

[furio16]

Last thing the Flyers need is another 3rd pair defender.

[furio16]

Anyone thinking they can fight for a playoff spot next season needs their head examined.

Sother wasn’t even signed or doesn’t appear to be in the plans.

People need to stop with the trading Risto stuff. They have zero interest in moving him. Can see a short term ext next July for few more years ma
