So we overpay a decent fighter who cant really play. At least he can protect our good players. Now if we can get some good players, we are in business. Welcome Nicolas Deslauriers!

The winner for quote of the years goes to:

General manager Chuck Fletcher said the Flyers believe Deslauriers' physical, imposing game could open things up for their offensive forwards.

"There was a pretty aggressive market for him," Fletcher said. "Players like Nic Deslauriers are hard to find. He's a guy that we like, we think he moves feel, he forechecks well, he's a player that has a pretty good understanding of the defensive side of the game."

Not that we needed to be told this, but there’s a reason Fletcher’s picture is front and center on this article

I listened to Chuck’s press conference and the guy just sounds defeated. It’s like he just learned this week that the retool wasn’t going to work and just pulled back, signed a couple guys that will be the bad kind of entertaining, and will hope that will put enough butts in the seats to save his job. He spent half the time talking about getting better on D and it’s the same group except they added Deangelo who is the worst actual defender on the roster.

What on earth did they think they would be able to do when they held that press conference in January about retooling quickly?

Not the worst thing in the world to miss out on Gaudreau. At least it doesn’t prolong the suffering. And signing guys like Deslaurius who have a case to be the worst player in the league will help the tank. But damn, what a miss that January press conference was.
The agony of defeat

Sadly this is the next thing to be looking forward to. I think draft is in June next year. See you then !

Awas, lasgop, Chrispy, purdue, chy, maverick, wbon, have this nailed. WTF Chuck hates somebody real bad to pull worse-than-Hextall shit in the span of 3-4 days. This Douchebag is pushing the yoke hard to the dashboard while smiling as he is flying this dying ship directly nose-first into the ground. Good grief, the Flyers are the league's shithole, dumpster fire extraordinaire.

and the JVR contract just keeps on giving.

I don't know if they have one, lasgop, since that Flyers Russkie goalie that got hijacked into military service was rumored to be the back-up.
