2022/23 Roster Thread XV: Where Optional Skates are Mandatory

If this is true, I Assume AA will take his spot.

On a positive note, seeing Torts' no nonsense bullshit clash directly with Hayesey's southie broheim personality, is just so much fun. Yea, the scratches aren't helping his trade value, but the reality is, i don't care anyway at this point. Watching this implosion is more entertaining to me, than watching Chuck flail around trying to fix his own mess.

If he goes home, he's not going to get another NHL offer at 30 years old.

How old is Anisimov again?

 

[Strawberry Fields]

Can't say I blame him, he didn't sign here to play for a horribly run franchise, I'm truly shocked more players have demanded trades yet

To be even fairer to Lukas, he didn't sign here at all

 

[Flyerfan4life]

Zing..

hahaaa...

A PTO isn't exactly an offer.
A contract is guaranteed money.

 

[Chicken N Raffls]

That is GOLD! Holy shit, I LoLed out loud.

 

[FlyerNutter]

My god thank you for this.

HAHAHAHAHAHA.

Puts it back on Torts. Paraphrasing - "Maybe its time for a coach to take responsibility, for a coach to get healthy scratched".

. They are going to trade assets to get Hayes off the team. Just watch.

A PTO for this team?

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

As a person that pretty much dislikes all involved parties all I have to say is…

 

[Strawberry Fields]

You'd think Tortorella murdered Hayes and dumped his body in the Delaware River the way Yandle is talking

 

[deadhead]

If you commit to the rebuild, you don't feel any urgency to dump contracts, because you're not making room to sign other free agents.
So you can be patient and wait until the right deal comes along to move Hayes at minimum cost.

Which is why everything depends on the FO committing to a rebuild.

 

[FlyerNutter]

I just cant with that Yandle video.

Beautiful in so many ways. A real poem. Case study. Work of art.

 

[Perratrooper]

Would the Flyers rather trade Hayes at 50% for assets or buy him out?

 

[flyersnorth]

Couldn’t even make it to the end of the clip.

Retain and trade. Not even a question for me. Buy out is terrible.

 

[bennysflyers16]

Do I love the Yandy man now ????

Seriously. Like it's some huge tragedy that his boo got scratched. I was too busy laughing to catch it at first but....this is "Ironman" Yandle talking about #accountability of all things

 

[deadhead]

Lukáš Sedlák confirms he’s going home to “probably” play for Pardubice. He said it has nothing to do with the Flyers. Playing in the NHL didn’t bring him the joy he expected. At his age, it’s about being near family and having fun with however many hockey years he has left.


Torts on Hayes, and scratching his top scorer: "It's kind of a big picture, in my mind, as far as team concept. I'll put it to you this way: I can't keep looking by things, (just) because we're worried about scoring. I've got to look at the big picture of what this team is going to be, what the standard is, of how we have to play. That far outweighs losing some offense in a particular game. I'll give you that."


Anyone still think Fletcher is calling the shots?
This is Torts' team, for good or evil.

 

[Magua]

We were told here that Sedlak being used as a top 9 center, over prospects, was a positive long-term development. Re-signing him was brought up. Okay, so he took his ball and went home, so that was all pointless.

Braun is now in the scratch rotation, when we were told that he would net a 3rd round pick again and that's why he was playing over York/Zamula. Hayes, on an indisputably good and necessary and movable contract (maybe to Colorado?!), was only moved to wing so he could help the offense more.

Is it possible all this twisting reasoning was just BS?

Kev 100% called in a favor, after he white knighted for Yandle after his scratch last season.

Yandle played with the intensity of someone murdered and dumped in the Delaware River.

 

[Perratrooper]

Retain and trade. Not even a question for me. Buy out is terrible.

I looked at it, nothing outrageous like a Seguin or Benn buyout, but not great.

At 50% retained what would the Flyers want for Hayes?

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

Keith Yandle is a gigantic piece of shit. My god, what a baby.

We were also told that the building friction between Tortorella & Hayes was nothing since Hayes was responding.

A poop sandwich seems fair

i can def. see Hayes being moved soon

second time hes been scrubbed by Torts already..

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

One of the worst teams in the league yet were the only one at 50 contracts. Don’t worry they got 34 year old Artem Anisimov qued up to get back to 50 again.

Is this good management? @Beef Invictus
