Confirmed with Link: Keith Yandle Signs One Year Deal With Flyers ($900K W/ NTC)

[FLYguy3911]

Yeah @Magua pack your shit!

 

[Beef Invictus]

He's regressed from a point production standpoint since getting 35 in 18-19. Taking out the PP Provorov and Sanheim both have 36 points over the last two seasons. Neither of them are big time offensive defenseman which is why there is some positive to getting Yandle who is still great on the PP.

Did you remember to account for how much each plays?

 

[BringBackFletcher]

Surprised you guys have the energy to be mad at this organization any more.

It's more than clear by now they have no identity, no philosophy. This move is exactly what should be expected from them

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

Then why not pack the bags and find another team.....your words don't matter to literally any human that's part of the franchise. So your plan is to spend half your life on a message board whining? That's honestly sadder than any move Chucky has made.

Wat.

The team hasn't been past the 2nd round of the playoffs since 2010.

God forbid that we want to support a winning franchise. When all you see is mediocrity for over a decade, it's pretty damn difficult to be optimistic.

 

[orangey]

With adding Morin....and your top 2 D prospects being LHD....and Hogberg a LHD....would it not make sense to sign a RHD if you wanted another depth D?

Sure if you could find one. What's Prosser up to?

 

[Lindberg]

Did you know that all 32 GMs know better than you do?

 

[Tripod]

[Juicy Pop]

When is okay for Cam York to play for the Flyers?

Meanwhile the guy Fletcher passed up for him was having a big impact in the Stanley Cup Finals already.

JUST f***ING PLAY CAM YORK.

If he stumbles, play ZAMULA.

If he stumbles too, then you see what is out there.

Why did they even re-sign Morin? To be the 9th dman? They were in perfectly fine shape without having to bring in a veteran road block for Hayes to pal around with.

Or just do it now and get a better player?

 

[BiggE]

He's made over $60M in his career and had a chance to play with one of his best friends.

It's pretty easy to see why he could take less money when it pretty certain he wasn't getting $4M offers out there.

It's a pretty 'meh' signing from the Flyers' standpoint. But it is a bit weird that they've brought in two guys close to Hayes. If anyone did believe that the team needed a shift in the room, I'm not sure of the reasoning to shift it towards Hayes.

Kevin Hayes is never the answer unless the question is who is the biggest waste of cap space on the team or who peed on that hydrant

 

[BiggE]

Just wait til they bring back Bellemare for his pk “expertise”.

Kill me

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Just wait til they bring back Bellemare for his pk “expertise”.

Kill me

And leadership!

 

[ted2019]

 

[lancer247]

I would take Bellemare as a 13th in a cheap deal

 

[mr4tno]

Flyers Player Development office probably noticed York and Zamula might have had a chance to play unhindered and that's unacceptable.

Foor some reason, the Flyers absolutely refuse to play any prospects. They will go to great lenghts to avoid this -- exhibit 1 = Keith Yandle and his NTC!

[lancer247]

Mia that guy kidding? I like the signing but all the rest not so much.

 

[Magua]

Sir, I already packed the bags to Raleigh, North Carolina. Do stay up to date, Codeine.

 

[Hurricane28]

Calling this an absolute steal is a bit much. I like it overall, but mainly because it’s relatively low risk with some upside.

 

[mr4tno]

On the bright side, York will get time to develop with the Phantoms and Yandle and Braun will terrorize the opposition, because getting harder to play against it what it's all about, right?

They only thing that happens on the Phantoms is our prospects get hurt - look it up; it is a head huntng league.

 

[OrangeAndBlackMetal]

Meh, low risk signing. I'm fine with it.

 

[mja]

We are definitely signing someone to block Frost/Laczynski/Allison.

 

[1865]

I mean, $900k so it’s hard to be too mad but the NTC is just further evidence that Fletcher doesn’t know what he’s doing.

 

[landsbergfan]

Yeah @Magua pack your shit!

 

[flyerslducks]

towards Hayes.

lets just make him captain now

 

[dragonoffrost]

The Flyers all of a sudden have a ton of options on the PP. They should go back to a more traditional setup with two point men. Yandle/Ellis on PP1 and Provorov/Risto on PP2.

Traditional doesn't always work in today's NHL... Not many teams are rolling 2 D on PP1. It's about maximizing PP1 and hoping to score in the first 90 seconds of it.
