Pre-Game Talk: Trade Deadline Center (All Flyers and NHL Trade Talk) (Chuck Fletcher state-of-the-team update 2/28)

[bennysflyers16]

thats so damn stupid, go with the 50% get a 1st back, and rebuild, it shouldn't be this hard, REBUILD

But the locker room culture may suffer !!!

If there is ANY CHANCE to dump Hayes, you do it in a second !

Depends what you're offered. I'm not retaining 50% for a late 2nd rd pick. I can always do that in June.

I dunno, more pigs ass is consumed via scrapple in the Delaware Valley and it hasn't helped us any.

scrapple runs through my blood

It's crazy when you can social media and the majority are slamming the Flyers for doing nothing... Yet we have the people here saying they are holding out for better when we know that will be the company line when jack shit gets done. It's a ruse but SLURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRP!

I think using 'people' is a bit misleading because the overwhelming vast majority of flyers posters here know what's up and are being critical. I think the fandom is a far cry from the 90s to 00s when saying anything critical was akin to being told to leave the fandom and get a gang-beatdown on the way out.

I'm old enough to remember fidonet and usenet flyers group being the biggest means to converse with other fans online and it was total Jonestown.

Yes i agree, you cant let him go for nothing, it's pretty much throwing everything down the drain if it happens. the whole point of having prospects is to cash in and bring in talent and not keep for that sake of it not unless it's a top 5 player like provy. None, he's here for 5 years for 25 million, he's not going anywhere. Tell that to armstrong and berube

Might need retention, though. $3m could be too much for some contenders.

retaining on his contract wouldnt be a problem or a back breaker at this point

What AAV would McDavid need to cease being worth having?

I love questions like this. It's definitely above the max. Matthews would be. Maybe Makar too?

My guess is that he's worth 20. So round up a million or two from there for the certainty where I'm still saying yes. Let's say 22-23 is the McDavid Rubicon? Does that feel crazy?

For the punching bag that he is in our board mock draft at least the real Pierre has a soul and is a human being.

Just wait until he gets to be a comedy duo with mock draft board Ryan Reynolds if he is part of the ownership group that buys the team!

 

[Kelmitchell2]

you guys need to put some respect on my boy's name, its not mcdavid, it is and always will be MCJESUS

Is everyone getting worked by this Voracek completed trade thing? It's not from a real source yet.

just imagine how many sens fans there will be when daddy reynolds owns the team

Saw this meme on Twitter, had to share. Sums it up perfectly.

with their own tv show.

The cross-over episode where Wrexham soccer players attempt to play hockey and then the hockey players attempt to play soccer.

 

[flyerslducks]

if voracek ever comes back, I hope he goes to Carolina or ottowa

That would really favor the hockey guys since I doubt any of the soccer players can skate.

I ordered chicken tendies and tater tots for lunch for good luck in the hopes that something finally happens.

Hey, at least we’re not Pens fans.

i dont remember where i saw this video, but years ago they had a competition between football players and hockey players, and hockey players won by a landslide, and the football players all said, hockey is harder and takes alot more skill

more importantly, do you have choccy milk to go along with that nutrious meal of yours?

It's like paying NFL QBs. At some point the cap causes you to weaken too many other spots.
$20M is a 1 line, 1st pair D-man you can't afford.
So McDavid and a minimum wage scrub v 2 1st line/1st pair players.

 

[Kelmitchell2]

yeah, can you imagine getting a generational talent, and winning 3 cups? thatd just be unbearable
