I dont think its that crazy of a question unless I'm reading it wrong. If the Flyers land Bedard, do they just get rid of the scrubs and jerkoffs (Hayes, Provy, TDA, JVR, etc) or do you go scorched earth with a full on blow-it-up rebuild which would include trading Hart, TK, Laughton. If they dont get Bedard, I think I like the scorched earth approach, but if they do get him, maybe not.

If they somehow got him, it obviously changes your approach, but in no universe is it ever "too early"

my mind went numb reading that

Yeah, the 'too early' part of that is a stupid question. I took the whole thing to mean how does it change your approach to the offseason.

One of these is not like the others.

i don't know, if someone left me 10 million dollars on a table, i wouldn't be like 'actually it's too early right now, i will take it later at the risk of never getting it at all'

I’m really loving this thread today.

Does any other sport have as many fake insiders as hockey?

Why do the Flyers themselves have so many? Di Marco, Sommerman, Eklund, etc.

I’m just catching up now but this tweet essentially made it rounds through every sizable NHL related account on twitter. Sommerman got torched on there.

Sommerman got torched on there.

Deservedly so. That was one of the worm-brained hockey tweets ever. That’s saying something, because there aren’t many accounts on Twitter that don’t spout off nonsense about Hockey non-stop.

He limited the comments on that tweet

Dude wishes he was Sommermann.

And yet, look at this intellectual post from Jared that slipped thru:

Short answer: It’s never too early.
Long answer: Couturier is an ideal veteran to have with him. Cates had one of the best defensive seasons for a rookie C ever. Gauthier a year away.

It makes every other C (namely Frost) expendable

Got it, take out the stupid part of the question and then its not a stupid question. That's some real meta shit right there.

 

[BritainStix]

Why do so many morons have so much media coverage when it comes to the flyers?

 

[BringBackFletcher]

Literally WHAT

 

[BringBackFletcher]

Also, no scout asked him that. Blatant lie.

 

[Fight4yourRight]

Absolutely pathetic. Another rising star in the beat world.

I think it was poorly worded but essentially meant how does it change the approach. That's all I'm saying.

That is exactly my biggest "issue" there - I am used to Sommermannnnnnn saying stupid things. But the idea that somehow a hockey scout came to him (not the other way around) and asked about his opinion about whether there are timing caveats on getting a Bedard ...
Just no. Did. Not. Happen.

It's the way these bozos create content. Fabricated discussion points that feign inside knowledge

This tweet, however

This is basically Friedman’s podcast in written form.
