I loved Fungus 53 when XM first started, but I don't believe it is still around. NOFX even wrote a song about it.

Just crossed my mind. Flyers sign BOB but with no NMC/NTC that essentially makes it a three year deal because Seattle would almost surely take him. Carter hart should be fully ready at that time.

chances to him taking 3year deal are VERY slim

It is indeed gone.

RIP Oi!sters.

No it would be longer but with no protection in the contract when the expansion draft comes he would be chosen.

then its a 2year for us, doesn't seattle come in 2021?

 

[deadhead]

Seattle would take Stolarz over Bob with a big contract in his 30s.
Bob dosn't have the track record of MAF.

My bad, you are correct. Either way that was the point I was trying to make.

 

[Beef Invictus]

I am willing to let Seattle draft Andy MacDonald.

 

[Curufinwe]

You want him to get a two year extension?

 

[Beef Invictus]

You want him to get a two year extension?

You presume he won't? I'm expecting five.

This is life as a Flyers fan. Abandon all hope.

Nothing like a 2 time Vezina trophy winner to scare away a team. I’m sure Seattle will be really concerned with his playoff record when the draft happens and not the name recognition.

Also funny they would pick a goalie who passed through waivers earlier this year instead of an award winning goalie. That makes sense.

 

[deadhead]

Bob will be in his 30s with a big contract and a bad playoff record.
Why would an expansion team want him? At that point you probably can't flip him to another team.
Seattle isn't going to pull off a Vegas and be instantly successful, other GMs will be far more prepared.

Becuase they could use the star goalie who won 2 vezina trophy’s in his career and can give them a chance to make a competitive team. I’m sure if he wins another vezina he could easily be shopped as well.

I’m not so quick to immediately write BOB off. But if I was a GM I’m sure as hell not taking Anthony Stolarz over him. That’s a joke.

Here's the problem: You don't realize how much of a shining gem Stolarz is.

Deadhead and I do.


You better get on board this train. It's a one way ticket to success.

Well, at least it won't be a 35+ deal.

 

[Beef Invictus]

Well, at least it won't be a 35+ deal.

They're including those terms for fun. They think we like the challenge.

 

[Embiid]

Watch this team ice a contending product in a 5 year span while we wasted the equivalent time with Hak and Hextall...

We have already been passed by several teams that started to rebuild after Hextall. I'm guessing more will as well. Vegas has already us to shame.

Dumb question:

Is Myers exempt if he doesn’t play any NHL games this season?

Confused by what is meant by 2nd year NHLer. Entering 2nd year in the 2021-2022 season, or 2 seasons prior to 2021?

 

[deadhead]

No more than two full years before the summer of 2021.
However, AHL counts as a professional season.

No, he won't be exempt. He will have played 4 pro seasons by the time of the 2021 ED.

A season in the AHL after the age of 20 counts as a pro season. Hagg had played three pro seasons, but was exempt in the 2017 ED because his first AHL season came when he was 19.
