Good trade for LA. MacEwen is a solid player.

Cuck Fletcher strikes again. We will have less picks while actively SelLiNg

Good trade for LA. MacEwen is a solid player.

No. He stinks. Take it from us

So I'm going to take this as the Flyers had to take Lemieux to get the 5th. As in Zach for the 5th.

 

[Cootsfanclub]

That's a trade alright.

A thing! Fletcher isn't dead! It's a Tradesmas miracle!

God help us, everyone.

Nah this feels like an AGM trade. I'm not convinced Chuck is out of bed yet.

Lemieux is a UFA so makes no sense unless LA wanted to dump him or Philly will turn around and trade him

 

[Ace]

Lemieux’s career long audition of being a piece of garbage and a bad hockey player finally pays off with a Flyers jersey

 

[Pengu]

Another AH player goes to the flyers, what a surprise....

 

[Canadienna]

I'll never not think of Brendan Lemieux as the guy who bit Tkachuk.

 

[SomeDude]

A Lemieux in a Flyers jersey? I don’t want to live in this world anymore.

Two bum players, but the Flyers get a 5th round pick in the swap. Chuck Fletcher is still an absolute moron but that's a win on the margins for the Flyers.

Heh Lemieux seems like a prototypical Flyer to me. I always liked MacEwen, not sure about him since he left Van though

 

[Evergreen]

I don’t really see why either team would make this trade (or not make this trade, I mean who cares?) but I guess it saves LA about $450k?

 

[Channelcat]

Perfect trade. LA wants a tough guy they can trust not to go insane.

And Lemieux is a natural born flyer.

 

[FSL KINGS]

Any scouting report on Zach?

Sounds like Philly paid $450K for a 5th.

 

[Tasteless Beaver]

Lemmy now on his 5th (and likely last) NHL team. Teams just can’t wait to get rid of him, I wonder why… (I really don’t)

 

[Fire Tortorella]

Any scouting report on Zach?

He's awful.

 

[The Madrigal]

Actually considering Lemieux is a pending UFA the Flyers basically paid 450K to acquire a 5th round pick as someone had already mentioned. I guess for LA they get a similar player who is cheaper. Seems like a waste of a trade for them though.

 

[King Woodballs]

Lemieux has been passed around more than a 1955 nickel

Fletcher got a pick! He got a pick!!
