this would be the epitome of the opposite of what the flyers are doing
Not interested. We have more problems than just solid goaltending.
Cap also becomes an issue in 2 years.
Rangers fans would probably Lynch Gorton for sending the King here, too.
I gagged at how much we're giving up. Also the last thing I want is to see Lundqvist throwing his little baby tantrums on our young d and ruining their confidence.
No way, dude. I'd rather see Lundqvist in a Devil or Islander uniform before I see him in a Flyers uni.
You're a sick man.
I'd rather see him win the Smythe in a Flyers jersey then see him on the Devils or Islanders. I mean, **** Philly but they are a solid 3rd on that list.
The Islanders and Devils are NHL afterthoughts and definitely afterthoughts in the Tri-State Area. The Flyers are our #1 rival, followed by the Penguins, IMO.
This has been more civil than i expected for the first few posts, ill give you that.

As a Flyers fan, I find this surprisingThe Islanders and Devils are NHL afterthoughts and definitely afterthoughts in the Tri-State Area. The Flyers are our #1 rival, followed by the Penguins, IMO.
I am basically stealing this idea from Justine Bourne and his "Thoughts on Thoughts" feature over on The Athletic. Here is a LINK to the original article, I think it's worth a read. (My apologies if this is considered advertising or in any way against forum rules).
Basically, Bourne proposes 2 possible trades involving Lundqvist to Philly:
Lundqvist
Sanheim + Morin + Stolarz + Lehtera
OR
Lundqvist
Sanheim + Morin + MacDonald + Hart
In my opinion, I can't see the flyers giving up Hart. Generally, I don't think Philly would be interested in giving up futures like this, especially when they're not in cap trouble right now so paying to get rid of Lehtera/MacDonald is not a necessity.
Still, thought it was interesting enough to share here. Thoughts? I could see the flyers maybe giving up a lesser d prospect for a lesser stopgap goalie (Chad Johnson maybe?). Is this deal simply dead in the water due to divisional team rivalries?

If your young D would have their confidence ruined by Lundqvist's "baby tantrums" then your team has bigger problems than goalie.
But something tells me you don't actually believe this and was just looking an excuse to call Lundqvist a baby.
How old are you?The Islanders and Devils are NHL afterthoughts and definitely afterthoughts in the Tri-State Area. The Flyers are our #1 rival, followed by the Penguins, IMO.
Also, wasn't "the Flyers have everything but a goaltender!" a thing like 6-8 years ago?
Some Rangers fans would but they’re immature. He would have a better chance with the Flyers than the Rangers. Evidently being a celebrity in the city is more important to him than a cup!Not interested. We have more problems than just solid goaltending.

You can keep your soon to be 36 year old goalie.Don't need your goalies.
Sanheim+Myers
Well it certainly wouldn't ruin their confidence, it would cause negativity in the locker room which isn't needed. No one wants to see a teammate having little fit on the ice which is showing blame on others, we had to deal with that with Bryz.
How old are you?
I’m in my thirties and I cannot agree with this at all.
