The #Flyers are better at shooting through the cap ceiling than actually shooting through opposing goalies

 

[Phant03]

The Flyers........... Mark Streit is the D answer, Steve Mason is the goalie answer and Vinnie just ate all of Claude Giroux's money

But to be completely honest, their forward lines look fantastic.

Hartnell - Giroux - Voracek
Schenn - Lecavalier - Simmonds
Gagne - Couturier - Read
Rinaldo - Laughton - Talbot

Fire. Power.

 

[Fel 96]

^...Until they make a trade because right now, they are screwed.

EDIT:

After the Vincent Lecavalier signing, the #Flyers are currently around $300K over next season's cap, including injured Chris Pronger.

It can't remain that way can it? Aren't they a mile over the cap now?

 

[Fel 96]

[rynryn]

edit: feel bad. almost replied him on twitter asking if he can play center. The kid is super nice...like kicking a puppy.

 

[Minnesota]

Vinny wearing orange will be weird.

So Montreal traded Danny Kristo for Christian Thomas of the Rangers today.

Montreal loves those little guys I guess.

 

[Fel 96]

MTL got rid of a troublemaker it appears.

Besides playing for the Sioux what did he do?

 

[Fel 96]

His off-ice antics?

The only time MTL media pretty much talked about him was when he did something bad off the ice.

I heard last year that Kristo was in the middle of class when he got his call from his agent saying he got the contract all ironed out.

Apparently Kristo jumped up, threw his books on the floor, flipped off the teacher, and walked out saying "I'm off to the NHL mother ****ers!" Made a huge scene and the professor was forced to clean up after the guy left.

Add a bunch of stories I've heard from students that hung out with him/partied with him and said he goes way too crazy and is a huge mess, and the whole losing half his foot to being a dumbass thing, I can't help but feel that Montreal is doin' something right here.

The first part is pretty damn cool IMO

 

[Victorious Secret]

Looks like the Coyotes are staying.

 

[NHL1674]

Yay! 5 more years of losing money and empty seats! City will be broke.

 

[Victorious Secret]

Pretty much. Its 2-2 right now. Could go either way.

 

[Jbcraig1883]

Dupuis re-signed by Penguins.

 

[Victorious Secret]

Hes getting overpaid now. That was a fat deal.

 

[NHL1674]

Still a chance of re-location though even if it passes. At least that's my understanding.

 

[Victorious Secret]

I didn't get that out of it. But thats nice to know.

Feed getting sketchy for anyone else? Dust storm outside for them.

The out-clause could create problems. If it isn't removed, sounds like the deal with RSE will die. Putting it back to square 1.
