how are the panthers goign to afford Hamilton?
dont see seattle trading wright as no need to. what is tapa giving up.
you need to add more context and mae the deal make sense.
flyers can’t overcome average or bad goaltending. that shows you how far away they really are from true contention.
Bill can you help me understand the consent blowing and trying to prop up one Garnet Hathaway. The 2 announcers cream their pants at just an average play. The whole 4th line infatuation is just very strange. Their tone is just so over the top. Compare that tone to MM. Shit compare how they talked about MM last year to now this year.
No they should target Robert Thomas and use MM as the main piece. If the blues are willing to trade Thomas flyers have the pieces IMO. Even if you overpay you do it. This is the move they need to make. Otherwise where is that
#1 coming from?Kyrou is a good player though he doesn’t move the needle much for the flyers as currently constructed. Now if they move other players out like tippet and or brink then fine. They are not going to test him out at center.
Bump is in his first full year now all of a sudden “players” have passed him by? What players? If that’s the case, then why would the blues want him and not those other players? Wasn’t he hurt when barkey was called up.
What else you giving up for kyrou since you think he can be a key piece?
While unlikely, what would a Fox to the flyers trade look like?
Probably a lot more than the Flyers would be willing to give up. You’re also asking Fox, a kid born on Long Island wearing a Rangers jersey, to go play for his life-long rival. This would almost be the equivalent of seeing Mantle or Jeter in a Red Sox jersey.
one dont belong in that group.
don’t think in 2026 thse things are that relevant.
Highly doubtful that Fox goes to Philly. He has a NMC for 2025-2026 and M-NTC after that, plus his $9.5 million salary is a little high for Philly to take on.
it i doubtdul as I said. Salary isnt an issue.
just wondering what a deal would like is all seeing the path the flyers are taking
In reality, the Flyers need more from Ersson, especially over the next few months.
I’d give Kolosov a shot. Ersson will get a chance in one of the TB games. He’s the kind of guy who will have his best game of the season to make this situation bleed out a little longer. Can’t say the Flyers don’t give their guys chances.
They’re still .600 in their last 10, which is fine, but other teams are getting really hot and passing them. Still not enough to push them down and out of the playoffs, but rivals having hot runs.
Seeing some separation between top nine teams of conference and the bottom seven. Very bottom teams look done. BUF has been the only shock turnaround and they are in at the moment.
still early though I think sens, rangers, blue jackets are done. Devils as well unless they fire the coach and GM maybe the get an uptick. Caps fading. not sure what to make of the pens with skinner in goal. bruins another funny team.
flyers control their own destiny.
no reason at all not to give kolosov a look. doubt they will.
didnt realize MM hasn’t scored in 6 weeks. the only way to get him on track is to play him. Not with Carl or Cates either. Amazes me MM never seems to get the better quality of linemates overall. There is more than meets the eye here between him and the coach. I 100% believe he will be traded at some point in the next year. Put MM on the side he played last year would also be a start.
Brire has had 3 offseason to replace Sam and hasn’t. Why? he hasn’t got any better and has been pedestrian at every stop he has ever played.
Cates has no business on the PP. Why they refuse to have MM and zegras together seems personal to me as otherwise there is no rational explanation to have them on the same unit.
it was all about culture when they hired torst.
all about culture with tocchet.why is the culture always a problem? maybe the players they keep around are the issue. n
shit cracks me up. never about talent. just culture that has produced so much winning.
cant speak for anyone else, I am looking forward to playoff risto. he was built for that type of hockey. odd that the D looks pretty much the same with or without risto.
sitting n 3rd place and if they miss isnt a failure? interesting take since the playoffs were the goal from day 1.
If they get swamped by injuries, no failure. If they don’t and the wheels just fall off the wagon then yes.
Fair enough
Another win, but haters gonna hate! 🤷🏽♂️
the pat to represent the EC in the cup finals goes through philly.
can’t wait to see briere work some magic at the deadline.
its not about position its the quality of players. 28% and not one even close elite player in that group. I love will the cap goes up so that justifies it mind set. if your already using that nonsense then it was a bad deal from the start
get back to me in april. every team in the east conf is above .500. very little separation. go flyers brick by brick
if the flyers miss the playoffs, since they control their own destiny, would it be an organizational failure at this stage?
Konecny is scoring at .9 PPG and is a +11, Tippett is on pace for 26 goals, Dvorak is having a career year. Hate to tell you, but those are not unreasonable cap hits in today’s market. Couturier got himself a nice deal, for sure. Get back to me in three years. Hahaha!
April gets closer every day.
Depends on how it happens if it does at all. Flyers still aren’t deep, so the wrong injury to the wrong guy could still derail them. That would not be an organizational failure at this point.
TK contract is fine (though not an elite player). Tippet not so much. he may be the most irrelevant 20 goal scorer in flyers history. love pace. he is s future 40 goal scorer who hasnt even cracked 30.

8.75 tk
5.1 dvorak
7.75 ex selke
6.2 tippethow much cap space do those 4 eat up the next 3+ years?
Next year, about 28% for 4 of your top 9 forwards. Will get lower after that as the cap goes up.
flyers way ahead of schedule? what schedule is that? this is just another move to keep the mediocrity wheels spinning. imagine thinking dvorak is a key/core player. Flyers evalauto9ns and process are total garbage. love when peeps argue otherwise.
Cant wait for the berglund is a potential #1 center article to come out or what not
playoffs > cup in flyers land
You keep making these claims, the Flyers keep playing .600 hockey. That will get them into the playoffs.
its not about position its the quality of players. 28% and not one even close elite player in that group. I love will the cap goes up so that justifies it mind set. if your already using that nonsense then it was a bad deal from the start

So now they have $16.9 million tied up in three bottom 6 centers for the foreseeable future. Two who will be in their 30’s. I understand the “cap is going up” pablum is supposed to make that more palatable. I don’t have a problem with the cap hit per-se, I just don’t like the term. I think it is 2 years too long, really 3 years, but I doubt they were going to get him for 2 years.
Add to that the system is chock full of bottom 6 center prospects with no top line 1C or 2C anywhere to be seen, the Flyers have a problem. FA is already bare and they will have to be VERY lucky to find one via trade (without an hefty overpay) or drafting in perpetual “Bubble” land moving forward.
