As a Flyers fan I hope Jett works out. I hope the injury was the main reason he never really “popped” after being drafted. That being said, I thought it was a bad pick that day (though Craig Button nailed it) and still think there were numerous centers available that will turn out to have better careers. I would have preferred Helenius, or Hage, or even Dean Letourneau.
I hope I eat my words.
I’ll be thinking about Myrts today as he begins his chemo. I have no issue with Berglund heading to Sweden.
Watching his podcast today was a gutpunch. I don’t know him at all but I feel like I do, from watching him almost daily. When he started talking about wanting to see the Flyers win before he leaves was almost too much. Fight hard Myrt.
Comes to camp out of shape. 2nd season under his second coach, under his second system, still learning to communicate and get used to the culture and country. Still puts up 51 points which is the same as Golden Boy Owen Tippett. People call him a bust while glazing Tippett nonstop. If an out of shape 2nd year player can still score 51 points, well……
I believe being in shape will give him some confidence he may have lost after getting beaten up a little bit last season. Confidence is his whole game.
I predict 70 points.
Danny B has been on fire this off season. Amazing deals for both players. If he gets Grebenkin in for under 2 AAV, that will leave him north of 14 million in cap space heading in to the season. When was the last time they were in that position?!
As has been said by many, It looks like he is preparing the team to make a huge trade if the right one becomes available.
II would imagine the Flyers knew that the Carlsson offer sheet, win or lose, was going to drive up the asking price of Zegras and Drysdale. Couple that with the Byram deal, that probably helped Drysdale even more.
Do you think the Flyers get either or both under 10 million AAV or has that ship sailed?
