Confirmed with Link: Flyers Trade 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Round Picks For Tony DeAngelo And a 7th (Signs 2x$5M Ext)

[Evergreen]

The irony of making this trade just to pay him more than Ghost while also getting the locker room baggage as well.

He'll be a valuable addition, but we just bled assets to wind back up at square zero.

Valuable toward what end? Does Fletcher actually think this team with DeAngelo is good enough to make playoffs? Character issues aside, TDA will certainly make us better, but only enough to give us a worse draft pick next year.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

This is probably it for Fletcher’s GM career. He better hope he can stick around in front offices being a coffee boy or something. Because if he’s as bad at managing his personal assets/financials as is the Flyers he could be living out on the street soon.

 

[sregdoor]

If they are thinking long term (beyond next week) maybe they got him to flip in a trade deadline deal. But I don't have a lot of faith in Fletcher that he can get back better than he gave.

 

[Tripod]

God it's going to be so f***ing easy to cheer against this pathetic franchise this season.

I immediately thought of you with this TDA news. So vocal about not signing him last year even on the dirt cheap.

And now, they paid 3 picks and 5 million per.

I sort of chuckled.

So just wondering what night this year is going to be Tony DeAngelo sponsored Patriot Front Khaki's Night at the Wells Fargo Center night? Maybe they can do it November 25th. Flyers have a home game, it's JFK Jr's birthday. Those Qanon wackadoo's love their JFK JR.

 

[Fasu]

Hahaha are these guys serious. It will take years to recover Fletch and the old boys

 

[666Domino]

Chuck is an idiot plain and simple

 

[FlyerNutter]

I remain happy that director of pro scouting since 2013 - Dave Brown, will continue to be employed.

Remarkable job Dave!

 

[kudymen]

idiot plain and simple

You can shuffle these words in any order and you will always get a description of Chuck Fletcher

Haven’t posted in a few years, been a flyers fan my whole life. This is unbearable. How is this real life

Guess the Flyers want to make some of the "souf" philly contingent happy

Best to never try and improve yourself. Just such an ignorant mentality and it's no surprise TDA is a Trumper. I'm pretty close to bailing on this loser franchise.

Well there is another South Philly kid they may acquire in the 7th round. Player from Tri City in USHL

 

[Rebels57]

Hart, Lindblom, Ghost off the top of my head. Next question

Not to mention Brink, their top prospect, and Allison who is better than Tippett..their big return for Giroux lol

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

One hilarious thing about this - the first part of your list was defended by "cap space is an asset! You dont understand, this is not Xbox!"
Well good news for the cap situation

In:
Gostisbehere - $4.5M (1 year remaining)
Hagg - $0 (UFA)

Out:
Ristolainen -$5.1M (5 years remaining)
DeAngelo - $5M (2 years remaining)

Net for year is +$5.6M on the salary cap & the following in +$10.1M.

After they turn the team over to Briere, he is still going to be President of Hockey Ops until Clarke dies or Scott is fired.

 

[Danko]

Complete trash. Disgusted

 

[Cody Webster]

Cuck: We're going to do what we can to improve defensively to help out Hart

Also Cuck: Trades a 2nd, 3rd, and 4th round pick for the rights to TDA then signs him for 2x5

[Flybynite]

The South Philly excuse is just bullshit for garbage people wanting to stay garbage people. Even if you somehow 'grew up' around something you can expand your world view and your knowledge.

I mean **** when I was a kid it was completely acceptable to call things 'gay' or throw around the 'f' gay slur. You grow the **** up.

He needed cap space and term flexibility to f*** cap space and long term flexibility

Where is that "here is an idea" meme, jesus

 

[Fight4yourRight]

Man. I just have to stop following this train wreck. It’s too much. Been f***ing seething for over an hour. I hate this team so god damn much.
