Lappy needs to dig his claws deeper into those kids to make sure they play the right waySo why did we sign Seeler? There is a giant roadblock for Emil Andrae/Ginning/Attard.

If EJ sticks around for the whole year, I think he is on the Marc Staal plan of 30-40 games, but yeah - 30-40 too many.EJ will play 65+ games and be dog shit in everyone, just like last season, but Torts will say he plays the "right way" every night
What does Dubas have to do with the Tampa Bay Lightning?Lol Dubas probably knows he isn't going to survive the eventual collapse and rebuild. Not a problem for future Dubas to solve.
Nevermind... They're locking up SlavinI wonder if Carolina would be interested in Sanheim. They're turning over most of their D corps after next season. He's a little younger than Skjei and Slavin and possibly cheaper.
How the hell are we gonna fit him into that defensive group lmaoThe optimistic answer is "because Jeff Chychrun is one". The pessimistic answer is "because they know we're trading Frost and our #1 next year for his kid."

Charlie is an idiot, he thinks he knows everything, kinda wild that so many people seem to like himMaybe you can explain this to your friend Charlie
I hear you but what's frustrating is that you know he dials back his opinion to stay in the organization's good graces. And I get that. But then he portrays everyone else as irrational even though he probably agrees with them if he gave his real opinion.Tbf Charlie has to toe the line faaaar more than I do. Especially with how sensitive some people are in NHL front offices and behind NHL benches...
We differ on opinion on some things related to the Flyers but we are not a million miles away opinion wise on most things...
A career as an NHL beat writer - well - just look around the league.
People like Russo were probably the most "critical" we have seen in terms of guys who made a long career of it while still keeping the good relationship with a front office you need to have, and while I respect Russo a hell of a lot he was never really ruffling too many feathers and still flew dangerously close to the sun with Fenton just for basically doing his job.

I just don't understand how they plan on playing Attard or Ginning at all this season.
York-Sanheim
Seeler - Drysdale
Zamula - Risto
EJ
I don't think Charlie is an idiot but I do think he comes off as a pompous ass who gaslights everyone who doesn't agree with him. He may even be right! But he doesn't need to constantly be a d!ck about everything.Charlie is an idiot, he thinks he knows everything, kinda wild that so many people seem to like him

I get that, but what I don't get is that he goes out of his way to attack people that don't ball wash and agree with everything this organization does, it really makes him look like a complete fool, and tbh makes him seem much dumber than he actually isTbf Charlie has to toe the line faaaar more than I do.

What is Tampa going to do to be cap compliant? They have something brewing? Trade wise?

I don’t think he’s an idiot. But he’s unbearably arrogant, even when proven wrong. That’s his worst quality. Besides the ass kissing
Ahh this is my fault. I thought they had 7.5 without the Guentzel signing. But that’s inclusive. My bad!Trading Sergachev and Jeannot and letting Stamkos walk probably took care of it. Unless I missed something big other than the Guentzel deal, they've got $7.5M to work out a deal with Moser and sign 5 other players, which as long as those players are close to the minimum, they can do and still have a little bit of emergency space to work with.
The tone shift from the two most critical outlets has been really evident since Jones took over.
STG, and BSH(phly) were quite hard on the team before Keith became president. Both are just ball licking mouth pieces currently.
Matz is the worst when it comes to that imo. Used to rant, and rave about how shitty they were - now he’s Mr Positive.
f***ing sellout.
