2023-24 Roster Thread #9: Spring time is upon us

[captainpaxil]

I think this season ended as a dud. It was clear to anyone that this team was a meddling/over performing team in a bad division. If Danny B's GM decisions are swayed by players who want KONECNY to stay because they think they have a chance at the playoffs, that's a bad sign the GM isn't able to effectively analyze the situation and make some painful moves.

Fixed

how do you know when a rebuild is complete?

not sure where to post this, but i thought of you all while i made it.

lol ok thats the new sign above the lockerroom..

 

[trostol]

not really. what if TK forces their hands and wants to test free agency?

Then the team SHOULD trade him...but I feel like they would wait too long

 

[blackjackmulligan]

Then the team SHOULD trade him...but I feel like they would wait too long

well yes they would at that point....at least hope they would

only way he is moved

I liked this season. A lot of positives, a lot of meh, and a lot of wtf, which was unsurprising.

This offseason could go a number of ways.

Stay pat and make your picks, hoping you find a top level talent (#1D or C) that you have admitted you need?

Trade for someone you believe is/can be a #1C, like say Zegras?

Trade away some of your more/most valuable assets (TK in particular) to land a some better draft capital and high-level prospects?

All of the above? None of the above?

If last summer's theme was "clearing out deadweight and outcasts", then I hope this summer is a clear(er) indication of which path they're going to take moving forward.

Moves made with confidence and intention to pick one direction or another.

looks like you should #buckle in

Curious to what you see as the positives, because for me they are few and far between for this season.

 

[Young Sandwich]

That sounds delightful.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Happy Cutter Gauthier debut day everyone!

I don’t give a f***

 

[ajgoal]

That sounds delightful.

This can't be something that just happened, right? Much as I'm not a fan of the guy, what's the point in putting off surgery for him until now? If they'd done it earlier, he'd be able to use the offseason for rehab.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Would it shock anyone if he hurt himself working out getting ready for the playoffs and was cleared to go all out?

 

[Curufinwe]

It's kinda cool he got it done by the head surgeon of the Texas Rangers. He should be an expert in fixing busted arms.

IIRC, he came to camp broken due to his military service commitment during the off season.

 

[ValeriKamensky]

This offseason could go a number of ways.

Number of ways? Really? World Class specialists from Internet already choose the way. Trade away everyone who still can play hockey, after that sit and wait Michkov arrival. Than things turns to fairytale, The Flyers win the Stanley Cup

Is this going to be Rasmus Rathje or will he play?

Meltzer reporting a contract extension for Lappy is in the works.

Just shoot me and get it over with already.

Just shoot me and get it over with already.

How that guy keeps his job is beyond me.

 

[BiggE]

How that guy keeps his job is beyond me.

He also just reported that Risto had surgery for a ruptured shoulder tendon and should be fully recovered for camp. Yeah, I know, oh joy.

Why that had to remain a secret is beyond me.

 

[trostol]

Lappy is a Flyer for lifer cause of that puck to the face...regardless of he being good at any job he has

 

[FLYguy3911]

That sounds delightful.

Did he do this on the ice or in the weight room? Odd hockey injury.

Absolutely disgusting. f***, Briere is a moron.

 

[renberg]

Absolutely disgusting. f***, Briere is a moron.

Would you accept Lappy as an AC as a replacement for Rocky?

 

[Flyerfan4life]

Absolutely disgusting. f***, Briere is a moron.

not one thing has changed.. in fact it was conditional to his hiring that nothing changed..

thats why no one else took the job

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Riley Cote is available isn’t he?

 

[trostol]

While we're at it let's just get Bundy as an assistant

 

[Beef Invictus]

That sounds delightful.

What the f*** was the point of waiting this long? Could have done this long ago and been well on his way rehabbing.
