Oh, don't know if it deserves its own thread, but here it is.

 

[OriginJM]

still don't entirely know what kind of player you are, but welcome back mike.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Season saved!

 

[whitstifier]

Cool!

 

[Flyerfan13]

Looking forward to seeing vecchione, vorobyov ,Myers,friedman on the phantoms this year

 

[Curufinwe]

That is a good deal for him if it's a one-way contract.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

 

[hatcher]

I guess he made the team already. Hope he does well.

I wouldn't say that. The Flyers have had plenty of guys making that money in the minors before.

 

[FLYguy3911]

Pretty sure they had a handshake deal in place when Vecchione signed in March.

Yes, I always assumed this as well.

Hope he does because its nice to watch young players on this team. Should be more fun to watch this year.

You spent a significant chunk of this year bashing several young players while pushing to trade for veterans

Good depth signing with potential. He probably won't make the team, but he should be one of the first call ups when the injuries happen.

No I didn't. i would have traded Ghost for trouba but we didn't have to. i don't act like you guys towards a core that hasn't been that good. I don't sugar coat. Morin I like the most but if he's ****ing up bad sit him.

They had MacDonald making $4.5m down there in 15-16.

You turned on Konecny, you slammed Couts who is young, you can't stand Ghost already in his second year, and you were all about trading for older fourth liners (and generally always are after every loss).

 

[Curufinwe]

Now we wait and see what kind of deal Laughton gets.

 

[Hockeypete49]

So glad for Mike and of course us. Now I to want to see Scott Laughton signed.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

still think he ends up in LV.
Vecchione that is.

Never said to trade for any 4thliners except maybe to replace to soft ****** that played on that line. Don't like coots and Ghost played like **** most of the year but you guys sugar coat. Rookie or young player better be ready or sit.

 

[GKJ]

One-way? Not a big deal, but I don't think he's making the team. I guess that was the price to get him here.

Don't know what was said or whatever but you this sounds like Hitchcock.

he likes rookies that can play 200ft. If not sit.
