taking on the full hit as you said is fine as no long term commitment.
What do you think the return going to Vancouver would be.
As for Allen what type of term do you think he would require? 3 years at 4 per?
Yes, I think they have interest in ISaac.
I would not be shocked,especially with the Vancouver connection and one year til UFA status, if the Flyers gambled on trying to acquire Thatcher Demko. If not, I could easily see them signing Jake Allen.
The only value of Ellis’ contract is for teams that need to reach the cap floor and if the Flyers eat half of it plus add something.
Thanks. Seeing the direction the flyers want to go will you be surprised if they go hard after Tavares or Duchesne if they make to to free agency. These guys will have many other options though the flyers can overpay them on say a 3/4 year deal.
question is how much money it would take as both I assume want to chase a cup.
Does Demko have a NTC? Hypothetically what do you think it would take? Would they want Ersson as a backup as obviously flyers have to add.
Therians biased view is already getting old. I bet if you go back and look at the last 3 press conf for AV, Torts, Tocchet they re virtually identical as to what was said by the flyers and the pres.
Bill we need some conversation, so:
– do you see the flyers pursuing Howard from Tampa assuming he would sign? flyers have the assets to get a deal done. What would you give up for him? Oilers 1st and a 3rd (assuming tampa wants picks? Would you move Barkey (plus a pick) for him?
– when Briere said he had agents calling and talking him (well wouldn’t that be tampering if talking about current players?) was he possibly referring to the agent of Cutter and Buium? IMO torts being the coach was a factor in Cutter not wanting to play here. Then it had a trickle down effect. Any thoughts on that?
– what goalie do you see them pursuing?
– what free agents do you see them going after and actually signing.
– does the Ellis contract have any real trade value?
– this tocchet will draw free agents is also funny. I get it from the flyers end as they have to sell something.
And to think, we didnt draft Buium in part because we already have Andrae.
if one believes that as aa reason..Andrae is just another in a long line of potential 3rd paring dman they have drafted; if he pans out.
right….no issue with what torts did in that situation. at some point he should have started taking questions from him again, if he didnt.
BUndy letting Torts have it over the San Filippo incident(s)
they eat their own once they are fired….
whats he saying? trying to recall that incident and drawing a blank.
No doubt Verbeek will abide by the 10 team list. After that, it is try to get the best deal possible for his team.
I get that. Gibson has been there a long time. I do not think the would just trade him without talking to hi first. Goalies know the flyers a perceived goalie graveyard. dont see a guy like him choosing the flyers. if he was a free agent with not many good offers, then my opinion would change.
What I meant was if the flyers were not one of the 10, they would ask him first not just trade him.
IMO gibson wants a shot at a cup or a minimum the playoffs. cant see him or any vet with some control wanting philly in the last few years of their contract. assuming they are interested in winning.
I know Bill said no way, though it would not shock me to see the flyers pursue CC. Overpay on a 2 year deal.
10 team no trade list. So take from that what you will.
I would think the ducks would accommodate and not send him to a team he didnt want to go to.
I have a feeling they end up trading for John Gibson. Two years left on contract @ 6.4 million
He has a NTC I think. Why would he want to go to the flyers?
