NO@BigToe — you better f***ing get working on 2024
Friedman on HNIC just confirmed it was only Florida.
too many apologists on twitter atm
A 1st in 2024 is worth a lot less than a 1st in 2022.
Waiting for the protections that Chuck negotiated.
TK from 19-21 was 4th line quality when he wasn't playing with G and Couts. Then the light went on.That's the hope.
The flipside is that the scoring has not translated to the NHL when used beside Barkov on one lime, or Hubberdeau on the other.
If he can't produce in their offense with those players, will he really do it with Hayes, Couts, Laughton or Frost?
It’s all the same source: the team that got hosed.
This wasn’t the narrative for weeks. It wasn’t even the narrative yesterday from people in tight with the team. It all sounds so purposefully convenient. I’m trying to imagine Fletcher approaching Giroux saying, “The Florida offer is bad for us, G. Is there another team? Anyone I can at least get some leverage with?” And Giroux replying, “F*** you. Florida or I sit home.”
Fletcher is just a people pleasing milquetoast not fit to build a championship team for umpteen reasons.
Was Tippett targeted? Or was he scouted because he was the best that Florida was offering?

Fletcher is just a people pleasing milquetoast not fit to build a championship team for umpteen reasons. The idea of him trying to win a trade and get his hands dirty makes him shudder.
you bet, if we were in the position of the panthers we would paid two 1round picks and said it was worth it cause this players is a Top 5 Player the last 12 Years!Even if G didn't have an NMC and didn't get to actually dictate his spot, a good organization would accommodate shipping their longtime captain where he'd prefer. That he does have one just further diminished the value here. Can't be mad.
Yes. A Taylor Hall who had 2 goals in 37 games for the season.So, all Boston had to give up for Hall was a 2nd.
Flyers get a 1st, 3rd, & Tippett for their NMC player.
THISPeople seem to be forgetting that it's Chuck's fault we need to deal G to begin with
Oh my God, Florida, that well managed organization, insists on their prospects stifling their creativity and focusing on defense?
What is the world coming to.
dw hes not that dumb to come backChuck f***ing sucks at his job and should never be hired or have a job in hockey again.
I kind of hope Giroux doesn't come back only so that he doesn't have to suffer anymore with this management.
Yes it is. It’s owned property That is an asset.if something has no value or negative value it’s not an asset.
I hate Fletcher , but I don’t believe that Frank and Elliotte would lie about this. If they in fact knew Avs were an option , they wouldn’t lie imo.
Neither are even remotely kind when talking about the Flyers in the past.
Now if they actually didn’t know , that different.
Lebrun will be the one to co firm this all tho
It has nothing to do with Friedman lying. I never said he was. But sources are sources with their own agendas.
The reality is why would the Flyers ever want it leaking that Giroux only wants one team? It doesn’t really affect Giroux either, and he would not f*** over the Flyers purposefully. A savvy GM talks with Giroux and his agent, knows what he wants, and keeps things quiet enough to gain leverage with other teams. “Giroux is considering Colorado and so and so.” Even if he really wants Florida. Again, we have a loser GM who probably spelled it out to Florida, then they leak it to gain leverage. Nice guy.
Exactly what I said. Why was it ever leaked that Bos and NYR were out of it? WE LEAKED THAT.It has nothing to do with Friedman lying. I never said he was. But sources are sources with their own agendas.
