There has to be more going on, I hope

yeah, probably all of the defenseman are dead.

 

[FromOyVey2Matvei]

Why the f*** would we be spending draft picks?

Its not just that we spent a draft pick… but we spent one on the corpse of Erik Johnson!

 

[Kelmitchell2]

Probably helps them miss the playoffs. Attard is 100% better.

He has fell off a cliff so badly these last two years, one of worst Dmen in the league results wise.

4th is an overpayment. Probably worth a 6-7th just for name and being a body.

I feel like I've been the only person hoping attard is given a full chance. I think he's ready and played great last night against the best team in the league, he carried ginning

 

[Lindberg]

What the hell is the point of this?

Unless they are moving another defensemen which isn't likely.

It's stupid moves like this that costs the Flyers.

 

[Matti Mich]

People have pretty high value for a 4th.
Erik Johnson isn't it, but its not a 1st everyone.

Who's the last Flyers 4th that has hit?

 

[bennysflyers16]

Well we may have done it,,,,

Staal Johnson will be the worst pair in Flyers history

 

[kudymen]

There has to be more going on, I hope

Yeah like an even newer era of orange

People have pretty high value for a 4th.
Erik Johnson isn't it, but its not a 1st everyorne.

Who's the last Flyers 4th that has hit?

The guy is BRUTAL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Or whateve is worse than brutal

 

[flyersnorth]

Feels very unnecessary.

Is he even an upgrade over Staal?

 

[BritainStix]

The ONLY thing I can think of, is that they are trading another defenseman. Risto? Staal?

Doesn’t matter. Picks can be packaged for better trades. See how they packaged a 5th yesterday to get the 1st done

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

For a 4th lol.

If there's anything they love more than pissing away draft picks, I have yet to see it.

 

[trostol]

Buffalo's gm over there like

I kinda wanna see this in a sadistic way.

 

[Appleyard]

Feels very unnecessary.

Nope. Staal has 100% been better these last 2 years. Somehow.

 

[Strawberry Fields]

I'm going to be positive about this. We've got a first overall pick!

 

[bennysflyers16]

The ONLY thing I can think of, is that they are trading another defenseman. Risto? Staal?

Or Torts got another big boy vet for the D.

 

[Danko]

Here for the Brad Shaw gonna fix him takes

 

[ponder719]

There has to be more going on, I hope

Party at Jonesy's house?

 

[TCTC]

Erik Johnson? Maybe Briere felt he had to make a move to keep team morale up. Johnson's won a Cup after all.
But I doubt he'll improve us.

 

[snoop88]

Flyers Reddit thinks this is brilliant.

 

[ponder719]

Here for the Brad Shaw gonna fix him takes

Is he taking Johnson to the vet?

 

[Curufinwe]

The ONLY thing I can think of, is that they are trading another defenseman. Risto? Staal?

It's so they don't have to play Ginning and/or Attard.

Maybe Risto and Drysdale will be back in September.

 

[Adam Warlock]

Staal-Ejohnson 2nd pair. Ohhh yeaaah.

I think Drysdale, Risto, and Seeler are all dome for the year

Staal-Ejohnson 2nd pair. Ohhh yeaaah.

I think Drysdale, Risto, and Seeler are all dome for the year

Im assuming Drysdale is done but Seeler will find a way back.
