Confirmed with Link: Flyers do not trade James van Riemsdyk prior to deadline, retracted reports he was supposed to be traded to Detroit

I find myself more irritated at Fletcher's boss/bosses. Years of examples show he is unfit for the GM job and they're letting it continue.
This team went for Stanley Cup contention these past two seasons. Imagine failing this badly and keeping your job. Imagine.

Detroit is in town on Sunday should be a weird game.
Should get some fire Fletcher chants going on.

Nope not today.
This f***ing clown waited until Feb. 28th to declare we are sellers. they had no intention of selling before that. By then the market had already thinned out.

I’m skipping reading the thread. I’m assuming the two village idiots are defending this

Give Fletcher time. He’s got this
He just needs one more off season. Thats all.
He laid some great ground work today. Itll pay off in the summer.

Maybe Fletcher should have put in more than a couple half days of work.

I eagerly await a 16 paragraph lecture on how we're all stupid to think Chuck waited too long.

I never, in all my life, could have envisioned the Flyers becoming such a limp d*** organization.

If someone tried to resurrect Pierre Page and 1992, this is a start.
Sooo JVR now has had his GM tell the league no one wanted him so hes now gonnna be super motivated to play well for his next contract.
That hurts the tank.

IDK about JVR. He’s been a solid citizen throughout his time here. Never complains about a thing in the public. Comes to work and does what he’s told as well as he can. Is he worth $7M per at this point in his career? No way but he’s a veteran with class.

I made more than 17 calls to sports teams yesterday...
lmao.
I mean, it was a big day for me with a small deadline too and admin needed. But yeh, the way he said it like it was a large number when trying to move 5-6 players and likely multiple calls involved for each

Friedman says he’s eating a shit sandwich. Says Fletcher kept being told they would circle back to JVR is other deals fell through but thru didn’t. Enough that it pushed Detroit the top but sides with Fletcher (who to him was very blunt in the presser) in that there was never a deal until Detroit could make another deal.

Most work he's done as Flyers GM. Cut him some slack.
Maybe not the most, but definitely the best. He may not have made things better, but he didn't make them worse.
