So two way this year and one way next?

So two way this year and one way next?

No, 2 way 1st year, 1 way 2nd year

 

[PALE PWNR]

Why do you guys care about 2 way, 1 way? It just means the player is paid the same amount to play in the AHL and the NHL or not

It helps give an idea of where the team thinks the player will be though. If you're planning on a guy being in the NHL, no real reason to give him a two-way deal unless it's an ELC. While it's not necessarily true, it's likely this (along with the FA defense signings) means the Flyers view him as playing with the Phantoms this season.

I still can't believe that of all those prospects we were hoarding, it is Ronald f***ing Attard who survives.

He's waiver exempt so AHL seems likely.

If he spends most of the year in the AHL, the Flyers will get exactly two years of cost controlled years in the NHL out of him. I was fine with drafting him because he was a statistical outlier, but this is why you draft young players.

I like attard thank you very much lol I think he could seriously be a high 5, low 4

What a steal

 

[BiggE]

Are you a marginal NHL talent? Will you work cheap and occasionally punch someone in the face? Do you have a very limited skill set but you try really, really hard??

Well then, give the team of Jones, Briere and Tortorella a call today and you might receive compensation for all your many years of failure. Jones, Briere and Tortorella, trying hard is what we’re all about!

Cute bois and puck possession masters need not apply.

[usahockey22flyers]

He’s been a nice addition!

If Jamie and Risto are close (doesn’t seem like it), the 4th for EJ is an even bigger overpay.

 

[Chicken N Raffls]

Good thing we re-signed Seeler and traded a 4th for EJ instead of giving this guy a shot and shopping the waiver wire.

#Veteran veteranyness...

Nice surprise. Sanheim, York, Seeler, Attard, Drysdale = a nice base for the next few years. And Zamula, hopefully.

 

[BlackandOrange]

Attard was someone I wanted to see for a while but we kept going for cooked veteran stop gaps.
