Most teams with our draft situation are finishing up a period of contention that included multiple serious runs.

Then there's us, the cupboard empty and one of the worst in the league.
You mean it's not good to be capped out, have no picks, have no top prospects, and be 4th worst team in the league?

Freaking Hextall.

Just compare what we have been done, and what the Canes did with ADA.

Canes signed a talented player with baggage for 1 year at 1 million. Got great production.

Then trades him for 3 picks instead of paying him.

What a great use of 1 million in cap space and 1 year commitment.

They called up one of the dumbest GM’s in the league & abused him.

I'm not wrong that that's not a thing anymore for rights acquired players, right?

The fact that no one has responded to the tweet with that is a good indication of Flyers twitter.

don't feel like looking up the answer but when is the last time a Flyers 2nd 3rd or 4th turned into a player you even care is on the roster?

It certainly makes them better next year, and $5M for two years isn’t that bad. As much as I prefer they value picks more, trading outside the first round isn’t the worst idea. In a vacuum, it’s not bad.

But this is not a vacuum, nor is it like watching an artist sculpt something out of a mound of clay. It’s like watching a junkie do eye-popping things to get their next fix on one day without any consideration for the bill coming due next week.

Why not just keep Ghost, the 1st/2nd/2nd/3rd/4th picks and forego acquiring RR and two 7th round picks? It’s just all so incoherent.

What are they going to pay him with, Russ? Chickens? All the available cap space just went to DeAngelo.

I’m afraid at my own question, because I could certainly envision some scenario where they do something really stupid to make it happen.

I'll answer you question with a question...

When is the last time the Flyers did something that made me care in a positive way? THAT one will be much tougher to answer.

If we traded down tk get savoie or nazar, acquiring more picks in the process….And then we make this move, it would’ve made it easier to swallow.
