Confirmed with Link: Keith Jones actually set to be named real life part-time President of Hockey Operations, Danny Briere full-time GM

[GKJ]

Provorov was wanting to be moved for at least a year. Definitely since at least when he attacked the media on last year’s breakup day. Very probably before that since it’s been known he had poor relationships with virtually everyone in the organization.

 

[blackjackmulligan]

Clearly it wasn't false

it hasnt been months that he has asked out. That is what you said. That is false.

Do you really think the way the flyers operate they would have kept a player around this long if he didn't want to be here?

Yes, because they did just that.

 

[Young Sandwich]

There's been Provy smoke for literal months. To suggest otherwise is either lack of public knowledge or straight up trolling.

It's an unbelievably dumb hill to die on. Friedman was talking about it in January.

Lol yes it has been. This happened in the season with a lot of season left, well ahead of the deadline. It was widely reported he wanted out and the Flyers wanted him out. That's why we all knew he was going to be traded.

That was all months ago. Just take the L, you were wrong.

They’ve been talking about it since at least the 2021 trade deadline.

 

[Beef Invictus]

Yes, because they did just that.

Not just with Provorov but also JVR.

 

[Tripod]

You can also tell because it's when the media started to turn on him. Never a peep about him beforehand, then all the sudden the flood gates opened. Just like Hayes.

It's the latter. It's always the latter.

Multiple different sources put out articles painting him in a poor light on the same day. I'm sure that's just a coincidence though.

provide the links where it was said specifically he wanted out and where the flyers want to move on. Not speculation.

in the past you made some post that Briere wasn't ready for the GM job and wanted chuck to stick around something to that effect. Any links for that as well.

not one thing in that article says he wanted out or the flyers are looking to move him. If there is then clearly I missed it.

So you think it's just coincidence that insiders start talking about him being moved, local media start trashing him, and having a PR issue to deal with....all happen...but have no merit?

You can't be that naive.

Again, it's the same with Hayes. Poster boy and media darling under Fletch for years. This year that changed. If you can't see the difference, that's a "you" issue.

Colby is definitely taking Keith's spot in the booth....f***

Another indicator that all of this team's associated media coverage gets run through the propaganda filter and gets front office approval before publication.

Either Jones’ spot on TV or Coates’ spot on radio.

Has nothing to do with being naïve. It is a reporters job to speculate and all that. Also since when do you and others all of a sudden put stock in the they say as most of you bash them.

He never asked to be traded prior to recently. You can believe what you like as all good. As I said before you know how the flyers operate. If he asked out a year ago there is zero chance they do not move him. Then they would likely feed some stuff out that he asked to be traded and what not. We shall see if anything filters out under Danny's watch.

Fingers crossed it's the latter

 

[Beef Invictus]

He's being deliberately obtuse.

On the national stage? Because he's not leaving the Flyers booth.

yea hes been a sourgrape here for years..

im sure the Torts regime has just made him dig his heels in even further...

i dont understand the need to never say "i got my opinion wrong"

seriously no one cares..

hell im wrong wayyy more then im right. but i did call the Bedard to Chicago rigging way in advance so theres that..

hahaaa

Agreed. I’m hoping for Boucher on TV.

I don’t mind Cohen as much as many here do, because I appreciate he’s one of the few willing to criticize players.

That said, it’s a style that gets more leeway on radio than TV, & Boucher is better.

Gotta wonder if Therien goes back to radio, though.
