Explain this to me...

[GagneFire12]

Dan Ellis signs for 1.5, Chris Mason signs for 1.6...

And Homer spends a combined 2.65 on Leighton AND JODY FRANKING SHELLEY?!

Jesus H. What a clown show.

 

[GagneFire12]

Correction, Mason's cap hit is 1.85, but still. Gah.

 

[h X c Chris]

Not happy with the Shelley signing. Does he not think Richards, Pronger, Lappy, Hartnell, can stick up for themselves and the team? I dont need Shelley. What a fail move.

 

[scottflyers88]

without that stupid shelley signing we could have gotten a solid goalie. and if they were worried about being backup to leighton then i would have just traded leighton.

 

[GagneFire12]

I think Meszaros is going to surprise a lot of people, but this has been an awful offseason. The competition is improving and we are dancing around the retard fire, paying homage to Michael Leighton and Jody Shelley. I mean, really? Volchenkov signed for 4.25, you couldn't have offered that Homer?

 

[scottflyers88]

he probaby did. free agents can choose whichever team they want. you can not just act like if we offer the same amount or even more then they will go to our team.

the shelley deal is awful though.

 

[h X c Chris]

Id rather have Meszaros than Volchenkov. I dont know whats going on with the Flyers though I dont understand the Shelley move at all. Id rather have Carcillo and Asham. Does this mean Carcillo goes to arbitration?

 

[GagneFire12]

I know, but being up-in-arms is easier than being rational. Jody Shelley is a clown, a clown that guarantees the Flyers don't resign Carcillo, and don't upgrade their goaltending.

 

[PhillyPhaithful48]

Meszaros deal = solid

Shelly, O'donnel = WTF?! That money could have been put to use elsewhere

 

[PhillyPhaithful48]

Side note: I think o'donnel will be solid. Just saying that money combined could have been put to good use.

 

[scottflyers88]

or we could have not signed shelley. i would rather have o donnell at 1 mil than shelley at 1.1 mil.

 

[h X c Chris]

SHELLEY? WHY?! WHY HOLMGREN? YOU ASSHOLE!!

 

[scottflyers88]

well homer did a great job overall. why did he have to sign shelley? seriously, this would be better id he just signed the defensemen.

 

[awaz]

ya aside from the shelley deal i dont know what you guys are talkin about.. i dont know why any of you held out hope they'd get a goalie after they signed leighton, i knew they wouldn't..

meszaros is solid, and i think o'donnell will be pretty good too.. like i was saying earlier, with the defense the flyers have now they could play one of those plastic screen goalies in net
