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

[Flyerfan4life]

Timonen has talked non glowingly about the Organization. He's disqualified from being considered already.

this ^^^

Kimmo seems like he isnt willing to kneel before the oldbois alter.

thus hes never getting hired

 

[Curufinwe]

i still don't see how they are so close to the cap lol

$20 mil on Ellis, Johansen, Risto and Petersen will do it.

Plus $5 mil on Hayes and Angelo

Seems like all those little things that don't matter are adding up to matter!

Which is why he'd be perfect.

 

[freakydallas13]

With Atkinson bought out they could get just under the cap with this 22 man roster without having to put the two broken Ryans on LTIR right away.

I will be incredibly surprised if this team does not sign some washed vets to keep players like Andrade or Lycksell off the roster for next season.

 

[trostol]

I wanna say I feel like they have to play some of these kids because they have no cap space to sign anyone..but I am sure they will find a way to do something stupid

"cant you just enjoy the wins"...

I mean, most of those moves were part of the rebuild....

They weaponize capspace to self harm

Weapons aren't for everyone.

Kimmo was asked who is the best goalie he ever played with. Without hesitation, he said Bryzgalov went silent for a moment and then burst out laughing. Also said that the flyers should’ve kept Bobrovsky.

Kimmo has talked about Bryz a few times in his podcast. Last time he was asked about good and bad lockerroom characters/personalities (not necessarily good or bad leaders). He mentioned Pronger as an asshole (or cocky cant remember) but it was accepted because he was so good on and off the ice. Then he mentioned Bryzgalov and said ”let’s just say I won’t be inviting him to my house for coffee”

Not exactly surprising about Pronger. He was always a cocky asshole, but my god was he beautiful on the ice. I‘m sure everyone has worked with an asshole that they put up with because they were so good at what they did.

I work with a bunch of assholes who are awful at what they do lol

do you work for the Flyers ?

There‘s plenty of those too. See John “4 playoff series wins in 20 years” Tortorella.

 

[BernieParent]

How many days between Pronger's trade to Arizona and the FO putting up the "We don't care who you are ..." sign?

Another story about Pronger (and Mike Richards and Ed Snider). When Canada won the Olympics and Finland won bronze in 2010, Ed Snider organized a private jet for the Flyers' players as they had a game on Tuesday. Kimmo said he had partied a lot, but Pronger and RIchards were still drunk on the plane.

 

[Beef Invictus]

Dry Island was to contain Pronger!

That almost looks like a hockey team......

Walker back in FA? 5m, 4 years?
Farabee for an equivalent centre really makes sense too.

looks like a non playoff hockey team stuck in limbo that will never go anywhere.

Only way Gurianov may even be considered being brought back is if MM comes over. Otherwise he is gone.

If MM comes over the keep Laughton, will likely do anyway, as he is a core guy

Flip the top 2 lines in ice time or you got a serious problem late in the season.

In what land is that almost a hockey team? The defense is hot trash, there’s no number 1 center(at this point) . The goaltending is gonna be a train wreck especially behind that defense.

That’s another shitty season and just barely missing the playoffs to pick in limbo.

Waste.

Walker isn't signing for that much with us. Teams like Sabres and Flyers have to pay premium to attract free agents.

 

[Curufinwe]

I'd bet a lot of money that if Michkov did come over, that Torts would never play him with Frost.
