Gave up more for Risto than we got for Giroux.

 

[Nizzle]

no

 

[TheKingPin]

Any chance this is not real life? Is there more to come still?

 

[FlyTimmo]

I've never had lower expectations of a GM

Dark day for the Flyers. Dark day for @landsbergfan 's Hotness Rankings.

This is what happens when you’re trading a 34 year-old rental with a NMC who only wanted to go to Florida.

 

[Starat327]

I'm gonna need the servers to get ported to something new and erase this thread and transaction like it did the Risto extension.

 

[GKJ]

There IS more!

 

[Sombastate]

Chuck laid on a bed, used the stirrups that Florida handed him and said “as hard as you want.”

 

[VladDrag]

Why?

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

good for Giroux but hate that deal.

 

[BiggE]

It’s far from ideal but if Giroux’s heart was set on Florida, it’s probably the best they were going to get.

 

[Ghosts Beer]

A first & Tippett. Fine.

 

[Cody Webster]

Cuck had no choice. It's where G wanted to go and he had to respect his wishes. Cuck did the best he could and we should be happy we got something back.

 

[Redpath]

Other than a closer 1st rounder, what were people actually expecting in return?

This isn’t 2012 Giroux. It appears he had one team interested that he was willing to waive to. And that team has already spent trade capital elsewhere

 

[Starat327]

Lol, this f***ing uber-bottom still found a way to give up more value.

 

[trostol]

what the f***..this trade keeps getting worse and worse..granted Bunny and Rubstov aren't world beaters but cmon man

 

[flyershockey]

Lol, a 2024 1st, a 3rd, and a kinda bust. The shills are going to have to cone hard on this one.

 

[Chinatown88]

Thanks for the 14 or so years you police butt grabbing, skilled, faceoff wizard, and all around loveable oaf.

 

[BrindamoursNose]

It's not as bad as I thought it would be

It isn't good - just not as bad as I thought it'd be

I already miss TF out of Giroux

 

[Young Sandwich]

I heard Florida tossed a new gimp suit for Chuck into the deal too. Definitely softens the blow a bit.

 

[Beef Invictus]

Fletcher always loses. Always.

Couldn't even get a good prospect. Why? Because Fletcher didn't even want a good prospect. He wanted the big prospect. Somewhere Clarke is sprouting a gross protuberance.

 

[Magua]

Chuck Fletcher covets players with physical tools. Chuck Fletcher covets shoot first players. He’s a basic hockey bitch. Tippett was born to be a Chuck Fletcher player. I’m sure the urinal cake eaters and Jim Jackson will salivate. Maybe he’ll even go on an early shooting heater to seal the deal. Chuck Fletcher coveted Tippett and don’t let anyone spew shit otherwise. That’s the centerpiece, not a 2024 1st for a snake oil GM selling this as a playoff team next year. That pick is nothing to him. Either it's for the next GM or he liquidates it next year.

Tippett is a low IQ player, not much awareness out there, never liked him as a prospect. Flyers absolutely suck balls at transition hockey and passing and play-driving, so status quo. A RW to block superior prospects. Must be rostered or waivers.

Go Panthers, go Clode always and forever. I’ll watch more Panthers games than Flyers. Not hard when that number is 0. Chuck Fletcher and the Crony Army decimated this team. Just when you can think it can't hurt more.
