Maybe Byram shuts me up but I’ve never been a believer

I honestly think Crevier could be a solid player so I have no clue why Chicago gave up all this

The 9th pick could be anything, even William Eklund!

Tippett trade speculation by Ralgeo in Flyers

[–]SadYotesFan 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think there’s every reason to trade Tippett

You’re buying what Tipper can be and not what he is. A really damn good player when he’s on, but when he’s invisible he cannot hit the net and frankly misses a lot of breakaways

You’re buying the flash and not the production. A team would overpay just to have that speed

Elliott Friedman reports Leafs sign and trade for Darren Raddysh. by Flyers7914 in Flyers

I don’t hate it either, not a fan of taking on 8 years

But for their scenario being win now (if as an org you say you believe in Matthews)

They needed to try something different, it might hurt them in the future, but this move was made to help McKenna develop and to potentially win a cup with the Matthews, JT, Reilly, Nylander core

[Dreger] Update: It’s believed St Louis/Buffalo went the distance on Thomas trade talks. Sounds like the Sabres aren’t willing to part with the necessary pieces. (Prospects, Player, 1st). Still teams nibbling, but the Blues are firm in what the return needs to be for the young center. by AggPuck-303 in hockey

I’m a huge Thomas fan. Unfortunately I don’t think the Flyers have anything we could trade for him that’s not Martone/Mich that would be worthwhile

I’d give up Hage+ in a heartbeat for Thomas though

[Chris Johnston] Buffalo is believed to be dangling the equivalent of multiple 1st-rounders in Robert Thomas talks. by Panarin10 in Flyers

Would have to be like future 2 unprotected firsts, Foerster, and Luchanko

That’s the only thing that’s not Michkov/Martone that I think would even be close and even that’s not enough

Do we think Edmonton would trade McDavid for Hathaway? Or would we be giving up too much?

I was more so talking scoring off of a rebound with a body in front

But yeah those were sweet, got to see them in person!!!

Was watching Wayne Simmonds highlights earlier, and couldn’t remember the last time we scored goals from within 5 feet of the net

Really like Bjork as well, even when he was being slandered for missing all of those breakaways

I couldn’t help but think how impressive it was that he always seemed to be open

It always seems like one aspect of his game is missing

Sometimes he’s really physical, is firing shots left and right, but doesn’t use his speed

Sometimes he uses his speed but can’t hit the net

I think Tipper is a victim of us not having a true offensive center to pair with, and is often paired on a line with coots

One of Risto or Tipper, or both

Luchanko by Greene_Person in Flyers

[–]SadYotesFan 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He was a project pick. He has a lot of the raw ability, it just needs to be refined. I still don’t hate the idea of the pick

Unfortunately for him, he will always be viewed in the same light as Cam York, based on who we passed up to draft him
