The Philadelphia Flyers are ramping up their efforts to find a suitor for centre Vincent Lecavalier.

TSN Hockey Insider Darren Dreger reported Thursday that Lecavalier's agent Kent Hughes has permission to speak to other teams regarding a trade for his client. Dreger adds that making a deal will be tough for the Flyers in the days leading up to July 1, as Lecavalier is owed a $2 million bonus on that date.

Huh?

Wait... Wh- What year is this?

Nice, another thread about something that's already been discussed...

 

[Spearmint Rhino]

If they took Briere and ate 50%

 

[le_sean]

No thank you. He snubbed us and has a poor contract. Plus why would the Habs help the Flyers?

 

[Vi Nc E x13x]

nty 5mil for a 4th liner ... Philly can keep that **** contract

 

[Dannyhab]

Don't you think we have enough top 9 centers already with Galchenyuk, Desharnais, Plekanec and Eller? There is simply no room for Vinny on this team even if Philly retains some of his salary.

 

[Lozela]

No. Go after Iginla

 

[Dagistitsyn]

I swear to god this will happen every year even after he retires..


"Should Vinny come out of retirement and sign with the Habs?"

 

[Uber Coca]

Too late.

 

[Milhouse40]

Absolutely not. Bad contract.

 

[Monctonscout]

Why do we have another thread on this???

The annual Lecavalier thread, can always count on it.

 

[Garry Valk]

Yes. If Philly will eat salary to dump him, you can get Vinny for $3-3.5/year, less than Habs offered last year. I guarantee they are interested. Perhaps they can send Budaj back to further help salary. Briere may be a fit there as well.

Let Philly bite the bullet on that contract

 

[bigtimehockeyfan999*]

if they ate salary....he's still a good 3rd liner with top sixd potential under the rigth situation...but only if they ate salary...and the price was low.

 

[peate]

One of the most overrated players to ever lace 'em up. No thanks.

Hmmmm....

 

[Monctonscout]

Even if he is free and they eat half his salary, he has 4 years left plus he wants to play center, so he would be a #3. Do you dump Eller?

 

[Flyinghab]

No no no!

 

[FlyingKostitsyn]

I have such a feeling of deja vu! I WONDER why!??

If it would end there that would be a miracle. I fully expect after he dies to see threads about his resurrection with special powers just to sign with the Habs.

Seriously, some people are just looking to start threads. When I saw the story on NBC Sports, I wondered how long till I see this useless waster of space thread. With his age and contract (either one is enough of a reason) - it's not even a real discussion point
