Social Media Septic Tank Thread part 2

The Flyers likelihood of getting aggressive this summer though is probably handing someone like Eklbad a blank check which has disaster written all over it.

I’m of the baseball like mindset that if you’re going to invest a lot in a player you only do so for legit star players. Everybody else comes with a lot more fiscal responsibility when thinking of committing to.

I like Ekblad
 
You won't like the price tag he'd come here with lol

He’s merely just fine & on the decline. I would have no interest really especially at the likely contract it would require.

But like I said if he hits the market that has the Flyers written all over it & in reality there’s a lot of cautionary signs right now.
 
Every day we drifter further and further from the light.

The current misery completely eclipses anything during Giroux's tenure.
It really is amazing how much stock people put into a title bestowed by management.

Without judging Giroux's leadership abilities, you can't just hand someone a title and expect them to be someone who whips other people into shape. They have to have the personality for it. Some people lead vocally, others lead by example. If they're the latter, you need complimentary individuals to point to the example and drive others to emulate it. But handing a person a letter and telling them to go take charge of a group and make it great isn't how it works. And that's also accepting the argument that there was a problem in the locker room, which I don't buy. Until maybe when they brought in Hayes and decided that he was the face of the franchise.
 
Before they started this rebuild I didn't know how many different excuses there could be to make player acquisitions about anything other than on ice play. At least we've all acquired new knowledge.

You just have to wait until next summer when those few names people are bandying around right now are UFA’s. Ignore that these guys are likely to come off the board this summer when they’re actually eligible to sign extension. :laugh:

Kevin kurz always makes himself look like the idiot he truly is and then turns off replies when people don't think as stupidly as he does, I wish we could trade a 2nd round pick just to be rid of him lol the dude is completely worthless

He made a post talking about how the flyers shouldn't be in on marner, but as soon as someone brought up the fact he was screaming for us to trade for Jt Miller he shuts down all replies lol

Let's see first how his numbers look away from a smurf like Forsling. With Seeler and Risto already in place flyers could have one of the bigger defenses in the league. Just as good as Vegas.
