Yeah but the Flyers core are all under 25 and are playing in the league, Giroux, Schenn, Voracek, Couturier etc

If the Flyers pick up a Seth Jones this draft, they would look good moving forward, just need a couple of mobile Dman and a goalie with maybe a new coach.

LOL. Just 3 or 4 defensemen and a goalie is all.

 

[Curufinwe]

Start with a couple of defensemen and a new coach, then get a new goalie in summer 2014 if Bryz doesn't come good. And by good I mean .920 save percentage. Otherwise he can be the Flyers second amnesty bryout after Briere goes a few months from now.

 

[Red_Man]

Jones will be a franchise player, he'll be a turning point for whoever drafts him.

It is absolutely mindblowing to me that Bryz's numbers this year are so much worse then his numbers last year. I really dont see how they can go through another season with him as the starter. The fans will revolt.

Need a .920SV% young goalie? I think I have someone in mind, he shutout the Rangers last night.

 

[Alucard]

Can I politely request that throughout the remainder of the seasons Pens related belligerence you at least hold off on acting like Fleury is anything more than a subpar goaltender?

Give it up for the big guns making the wins happen, but seriously, Fleury ain't one of them.

That's not Fleury, bra. It's Tomas "the Viking" Vokoun, who just recorded his 50th career shutout last night, becoming only the 26th keeper in NHL history to reach that number.

Not every move works. I am still glad they tried though.

Don't know whats worse, having Bryz as your goalie or having the goalie that got beat Bryz in a 7 game series.

Want your 2nd back?

Or letting a young goalie walk who is putting up impressive numbers this year.

Yup, he'll be worth signing a year from now when they buy out Bryz. He certainly won't want to stay in Ottawa behind Anderson and Lehner.

You cant be serious. Flyers gave Bob a ton of chances and he couldnt get it done here for what ever reason. Good for him that he is doing well, but no way could the Flyers have kept him and hoped he would magically turn it around.

I agree, Columbus strength at D compared to the Flyers' D has been doing wonders for Bobrovsky's performance.

 

[Curufinwe]

What the Flyers never gave Bob was a decent goalie coach to work with.

Hes an RFA this summer, he will probably get traded then.

We arent letting a guy like Bishop walk away and get nothing back.

Just a heads up apparently you can get AC3 for free using a china account for those interested :

Oh, I thought he had one more year left.

Well the Flyers will have a higher second round pick than most teams available to trade, and they do need a real back up.

We've seen Zibanejad up close for a few games now. I'd say he deserves it and is a big reason the Sens aren't out.


Goddamn it drive that 18 wheeler off the cliff, Sens!

Vokoun IS fantastic and worthy of praise.

Hopefully new GM will be able to do something this offseason to upgrade the position.

It's a shame he plays for the Pens though.

Still waiting for official word on Dan DeKeyzer's decision, but teams involved in the process believe Detroit is the destination of choice.

Weird choice.

 

[lamaroo]

Yeah, Babcock will make him play in the AHL for 5 years until he's well seasoned.

 

[Quick]

Won't be until he's at least 34 before he suits up for the Wings.

Teams also thought Boston was getting Iginla. I'll believe it when I see it.

Weird choice.

Would have been weird if he went to another team. Been a Wings fan his entire life, grew up in Michigan and played at WMU. Has been to the Wings prospect camps (or similar). Friends with Jim Nill and his son, etc....

Edit: Pretty much confirmed now:

Bob McKenzie @TSNBobMcKenzie
Dan DeKeyser has chosen DET.

good size, too. hopefully most of them pan out.

Our offense and defense prospect pool is stacked right now for guys coming up to the AHL next year with some being NHL ready even like Tatar, Nyquist, Sheahan, Ferraro, etc....

Yes, the future looks bright on defense. We just need some more forwards with size. We've got a plethora of 175-pound Europeans.

I think the only "hard" drug I'd ever even consider trying is LSD, because it's by far the most harmless one. That and Psilocybin.
