Confirmed with Link: Flyers sign D T.J. Brennan (March 6, 2018 signing announcement in post #1)

[Embiid]

don't be under any illusions that he has a NHL future, or is some shut down guy.

You talkin bout Manning or Brennan? (Dripping w/sarcasm here)

 

[Flyotes]

He gave an interview on 94 this morning. Came off as really nice. Got the impression he wants to be near his family after a convo with his brother (his best friend). I like to root for that.

 

[Baemon Severson*]

For those who don't know, TJ is from South NJ. He played at Moorestown High School.

Those who know Burlington County and were born around '87, '88, '89, '90, '91 all ran in pretty much the same circles / knew people who knew people who knew people kind of thing.

Yup. Play roller with his younger bro at the mount laurel isc

Now I get why you have such a hard-on for the Flyers. You're a Devils fan that lives in South Jersey, which means you're surrounded by Flyers fans. That would piss me off too.

We seem to have a Devils virus now infiltrating our home boards.

Quick, call in the exorcist!

I worked with a guy -- who is an MD, PhD -- who told me that his brother worked at one time at the Vatican on exorcisms.

You never know, I mean maybe the Leafs thought he was too good and would ruin the tank?

I noticed he was playing with J.M. Liles quite a bit last season on the power play and he just recieved a new contract. You definitely never know.

However here is my very early depth chart. Obviously any of these guys have a chance to move up or down.

MDZ
Ghost
Gudas
Streit
Provorv
Shultz
Sanheim
Amac
Manning
Morin
Brennan
O'Neill
Alt
Myers
Hagg
Wilcox
Petterson

Liles was with Carolina & Boston last year. They only time the two really could have played together was in 2013-2014 when Liles had a short stint in the AHL with Toronto.

Outside of a 16 game stint in the AHL during the 2013-2014 season Liles has been an NHL regular since 2005-2006. He's amassed over 800 NHL games in his career so far.

I see your point, but the my point still stands. Liles is an offensive d-man with troubles playing in his own end. While I believe he's better than Brennan in that department, the need for a Dman with a heavy shot and puck moving skills is high right now.

Ehh wasn't so bad growing up when the Devils were winning all those cups.

Brennan's not an NHL caliber player.

But you had nobody to celebrate with.

Did you high-five yourself?

Now now..

I must admit those cup winning "tailgait" pep rallies in the Meadow lands parking lot were pretty impressive....18K fans ..excluding Jimmy Hoffa..lol

Were they the only team in NHL history to win a Cup and not have a parade? I have to think so lol.

I think so..and if god forbid they won another....not sure of the turnout in Newark. They would probably do best to rent out a banquet hall..like for a wedding or baptism...lol

ok it was 45k not 18k.....

The celebration of the third Stanley Cup win in nine years by the New Jersey Devils is set for Saturday in the parking lot of the team's home ice at Continental

'We know how to throw a great parking lot celebration, and the fans who come out to the Meadowlands on Saturday will have a fantastic time,'' said George Zoffinger, the president and chief executive officer of the New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authority, which owns and operates the Meadowlands sports complex. ''This celebration will rank as one of the best ever.''

Jesus.

 

[Frickley]

D prospects at the point on PP1? Nah f*** that.

 

[Deadpool8812]

I'm surprised no one asked Hextall why this guy isn't on the Flyers

 

[onlylordsvsmorebp]

Jesus.

who is this guy? just ahl caliber d-man or...

 

[Deadpool8812]

who is this guy? just ahl caliber d-man or...

Yes. He's an offensive defenseman that, because of how terrible he is defensively, will never be an NHL regular

Literally a 4th forward out there

 

[BillDineen]

I'm surprised no one asked Hextall why this guy isn't on the Flyers

Or about his shootout abilities.
