Sens let them off the hook. I think if they had waited longer they could've gotten more out of them. TB had to get cap compliant, the rest of the league could've just waited and waited until TB had to give up something of real value.

Cheap-ass Melnyk just wanted to move the Gaborik and Nillson contracts so he didn't have to pay players not to play.

Canada played Slovakia yesterday and Slovakia has five 16 year olds on their team. One kid is a 16 year old forward and is 6'4" 218 pounds

This stuff happens all the time which is why a team that has a savy GM really is never in a cap situation that cant be dealt with. This stinks for us but ill let the season play out. Canyt wait to camps open on the 3rd.

Yep. And what makes getting tight to the cap something that's still manageable. Toronto has done some gymnastics lately too. Heck, the Flyers were doing it with the Pronger stuff.

Just lame when other teams take advantage

Biggest question in training camp to me is the health of Patrick. If he's good to go, the Flyers are scary up front IMO. Might not have the high end that other teams have, but I'd put their 12 forwards against anyone at that point.

Biggest question is Patrick second biggest is our defense third is Lindblom.

Agreed. Interested to see how the pairs shake out. Fletcher mentioned Myers would at least get a crack at replacing Niskanen.

I'd love to see Ghost/Provorov replicate their 2017-18 season. Or if Gustafsson could replicate that if Ghost is toast.

a fourth question is to see how Frost does at this level.

I like the pair of Myers and Sanheim and would like to see them continue but we need Myers up top now so we have to wait and see if that works.

Impressive win by Czech over Russia. Less talented team played a very disciplined game and came out with a W

Russia goalie drafted with the 11 pick looks to be very overrated. But its still early in the tourney

Dang - this is some serious stuff

Lundqvist wrote on Twitter that he’s set to have an aortic valve, aortic root and ascending aortic replacement. He did not say when.

Stepan traded for a second round pick? Huh?

Think we could get a 2nd Round pick for JvR ?

It just goes to show you how bad of a contract he has and how bad of a player he is and always was.

Flyers' James Van Riemsdyk Floating Amongst Trade Rumors
Yes Virginia, there is a Santa Clause!

I can see this trade happening if the Flyers retain $2 mil/yr of salary. Columbus doesn't look like they have a bad multi-year contract they need to shed in the deal, and I doubt given the current economic climate they're looking to take on too much in the way of additional salary.

If this does happen a domino effect of this trade would pretty much force us to trade Ghost.

Has Ivan Provorov shown us his new normal?

Provorov is coming off of the best season of his career, and the Flyers are going to need him to do something similar this coming season — with less help.

I really hope he is the Prov of last season and not the one from the season before.
