ottowa and avs got amazing value for duchene/karlsson. this is just robbery lol

Ottawa let Balcers go on waivers who got claimed back by San Jose. Not that he’s a world beater or anything but he’s pretty solid cheap/youngish bottom sixer.

Yeah. I wanted the Flyers to claim him. He had a really good year with the Sharks.

 

[flyers0909]

I always wondered if they get drunk & crave a cheeseburger or something & just give in.

Can confirm. My gf is vegetarian but when the bacon comes out it's game over.

You ever hear of freeganism? That's where you are a vegan unless there's free non-vegan food at work, at which point you eat said food item while loudly wondering whether or not said food item is vegan.

 

[Bigkarl]

My fear is that he's not going off what he would do but rather building off what he's hearing they're trying to pay

Laine... ugh

You know what’s smarter than trading a ton for a player with a terrible career progression who is overrated based on draft pedigree and early career success and you’ll have to re-sign to a huge contract? Well obliviously it’s trading even more for TWO players with terrible career progressions who are overrated based on draft pedigree and early career success that you’ll have to re-sign to huge contracts!

 

[mja]

I wouldn't worry about that suggested Seth Jones package. I don't believe that Meltzer has any inside info on trade discussions.

 

[mja]

So now Bill Meltzer is getting crushed, a guy who knows more about hockey than most of the people on this board combined. The bar just keeps getting raised.

This isn't possible. Meltzer, while largely inactive, was a key fixture on this board and much like Eklund on older Flyers forums, it's where he got his start. So, he's part of the combined people, if you get my drift. I suppose unless the rest of us have negative value? I can actually see an argument for that given your posting history.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

The way Meltzer worded that response makes it very clear that the flyers have a deal in place in my eyes. It's going to f***ing suck.

I'm going to say it's both Jones and Laine coming this way for TK + Sanheim + 1st + Frost

That would be truly, truly hilarious.

 

[ponder719]

That would be truly, truly hilarious.

That's a word for it, certainly.

 

[CapnZin]

He would be a pretty good fit on that team. Avs fans seem to really want him. But they probably don't know hockey...

Or because his usage would be more equip to his skill set. He wouldn’t be on their first pair and would give depth. Makar is their best Dman. Jones would be a fit with a puck mover like Girard. Hell, girard would be able to inflate his stats some more.

The crying over this has gotten annoying in the oh we must not be smart. Stop straw-manning the argument and actually read. Maybe read up on some hockey to see why Jones would be a good fit there. Maybe… just maybe

I think you're taking yourself too seriously and aren't as smart as you think you are.

 

[FLYguy3911]

Exactly. Smart people know Braun was the best defenseman on the team last season.

 

[Striiker]

How can Makar be their best defensemen? He’s not the correct mold. He’s a smol boy who scores…

 

[Striiker]

Nobody is safe from the Lornesplaining

 

[Beef Invictus]

Toews had more time on ice, so he's clearly superior.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Not just 'on the internet'. It was said by one of the greatest hockey minds of our generation. The guy that writes for Hockeybuzz.com

lol ok

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

That's a word for it, certainly.

I have done everything in my power over the past two years to prepare people for this. Anyone who still takes this organization seriously has no one but himself to blame.

Is anyone in here serious? I thought were just making fun? Is this even reality? Cant be right?

 

[Striiker]

Are we sure? Someone ask Torts for his infallible evaluation.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

There are people who still have hopes and dreams involving the Philadelphia Flyers. That is sad for them.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Can someone splain to me how I can be more smarter about hockey and shit?

 

[Prongo]

You need to put more effort forward you lazy shithead

[The Madrigal]

The Kings just stole Arvidsson from Nashville. Not that we needed another winger or more salary but hey Chuck perhaps you could do your f***ing job and start making some moves to improve this team.

 

[Rebels57]

Someone cut my head off. I do not want my head any longer.
