The Flyers have a $245K bonus overage subtracted from next year's cap as well
Like every other team that has bunch of dead cap space on ltir.The Flyers have a $245K bonus overage subtracted from next year's cap as well
1. Is there a cheap backup out there at half the price this summer, that possibly could be just as good? Maybe.
And if there is - I would rather them use that 1.75M or whatever you would save by not signing Fedotov to be a 3rd party broker in a trade
That’s fairLooking at who's going to be available this summer? No, the goalie market is butts this year. Samsonov, Stolarz, Brossoit, Talbot, Driedger, Nedeljkovic, and Martin Jones are probably the top names, and I'm not sure I'm willing to try and beat other goalie-needy teams to any of them. Honestly, if we're to free up cap to serve as a broker, we'd be better served trying to move a bigger name, get some cheap assets in return, and then use the cap space thereafter.
because even they do not honestly know lolKimmo just said it's still a mystery to him who makes the decisions in the organization. He specifically named Briere, Tortorella, and Jones.
As in David Beckham? You can't have just compared Torts to Fergie.Anyone see the Beckham thing on Netflix? It seems there are many coaches like Torts. They don’t seem to understand the players play the games.
I forgot about Brink. I would guess he gets 2 x $1.5m like Tippett did.The Flyers have a $245K bonus overage subtracted from next year's cap as well
Once again Kimmo for GMKimmo just said it's still a mystery to him who makes the decisions in the organization. He specifically named Briere, Tortorella, and Jones.
then you will whine about anther ex flyers taking over. they need a complete engine flush. clean slate all around. let them all go build your management team from the ground up.Once again Kimmo for GM
Kimmo if given the reins with no meddling from the ancestors would be a breath of fresh air. His views always seem to be what this team should do but doesn'tthen you will whine about anther ex flyers taking over. they need a complete engine flush. clean slate all around. let them all go build your management team from the ground up.
Kimmo is enjoying retirement too much and I don't blame him. Maybe he'd like a front office role but I don't see him as the coaching type. Assistant GM? If he feels like traveling and looking at prospects. He's probably looking at Briere and saying, hey I can just step right into being a GM with little to no experience... and I guess he'd have a point there.Start Kimmo off as PP coach. Get Tortorella's useless pet the hell out of the organization.

I am not sure they are cowards I think imo it is they really do not care as long as not losing money or a lot of it as this just a toy and way down on important things under the Comcast umbrella.I've been banging this drum for years, but I think Comcast is too cowardly to do this. I think the best we can get is a purge of the current set (I am sure Hanrahan will somehow survive) aside from Clarke, and Timonen being brought in. Timonen, per what he says (whatever it's worth), is wildly different in approach to what is there. Bringing in a wildly different Flyer is probably the best we can hope for, unfortunately.
Eh, being real, they'll never get rid of any of them. Maybe they hire Timonen as a mandate from on high, and then he's undermined completely and run out of town. Flyers Hockey!
