[Kermit the Prog]

Can he fix the power play?

Can he fix the power play?

I'm thinking for the games he's not in net, we dress him as a forward and stick him in front of the net on the PP

 

[Curufinwe]

Ant says there's still a lot that has to happen before this can happen, to the point that he's eschewing whether or not this is actual news. Says we need to wait a few days. 'Nothing to report from a Flyers perspective.' But believes that Athletic reporting is accurate.

Ant isn’t very useful, is he.

Yeah that one didn’t go well for him.

A day after doubling down on the recalls. Tough couple days for the guy

I would sooner feel sorry for Jamie than Ant.

Why would Kevin Hayes do this?

Looks like ‘nothing actually happened’ the company line from CB, even as it happened

Crossing Broad

It was somewhat of a nothing burger of a presser because of all the sensitive geopolitical shit. What matters is that he’s eligible to play. They had to drop Felix Sandstrom from the roster, which...

This is a joke? What possible leverage did he have?

 

[JojoTheWhale]

Winning in the margins.

 

[FLYguy3911]

Someone guessed 2x1.5.

 

[FlyTimmo]

I'm accepting guesses on how many downvotes I'll receive

 

[dats81]

Ridiculous contract.
This dude has played parts of two games.

Everyday the scorched earth idea becomes more and more valid. The whole org is rotten.

 

[BiggE]

It’s gonna be even funnier when he is 3rd on the depth chart by midseason next year.

A troop of chimpanzees could run this team better than Hilferty/Torts/Jones/Briere

 

[JojoTheWhale]

Before someone says it, (almost) everyone understands the way to evaluate the process here has nothing to do with a handful of NHL games in an impossible situation. Unless he was deported in the middle of one of them, nothing he could have done either way would matter. This is just the latest bit of organizational arrogance.

 

[BiggE]

Remember when we thought Briere couldn’t be worse than Cuck? Those were fun times.

Coming soon to a ring of hell near you!

Farabee traded for a 30 year old checking center with grit and leadership skills

Konecny re-signed at 10 million per for 8 years

Frost traded for a late 3rd round pick

Brink traded for 6’2 winger who never makes it out of the AHL

And, with the 12th pick in the 2024 draft, the Flyers select their future 3rd line center.

 

[GKJ]

I think people aren’t aware the realities of the economics of dealing with older Russian players. This was what I was expecting, honestly.

Then you walk away.
You don’t sign a player to a shitty contract just so you can get a deal done. They have plenty of goaltenders in the pipeline and for next season, you just go with Ersson and a journeyman vet on a 1 year deal.

It’s a bad signing.

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

I get they want to give him a real test, and so do I, but f*** me that price is not cool.

 

[Fight4yourRight]

Even if this is true, and they had an idea of what it would cost keep him around, don’t even bother bringing him over?

 

[dats81]

Fedotov had no leverage other than potentially burying his NHL aspirations.
It's not like he would have gotten anything close to that from any other NHL franchise - in fact, he may have struggled to even get a couple of 1 year NHL contract offers.

And how come the Flyers never ever negotiate performance bonuses?
