This is why i suggested weeks ago before the deadline about his name and saying it was coolest in hockey - dank with that stank IYKYK

Robertson Hintz Konecny line would be hell.

I wonder if the Stars would be interested in TK for one of their 2 young centers? Stankoven or Borque? Just throwing it out there. Now before someone chimes in I know neither of them are big. Just spitballin...

Especially when consider 2016 basically 3 picks missed 1st Rubustov 2nd Pascal Laberge 2nd Cater Hart The year before 2nd pick Nicholas Aube-Kubel? 2nd Anthony Stolarz bloomed later for the Ducks gave up on him after just 19 games at 25 (I know we have hindsight) but you give his 27 all the money for 3 effin games. Bunch of buffoons.

What no love for the 2nd best 6th round pick ever? Jason Kelce?

But yall gave them Andrew Raycroft and he won all those...oh wait...nevermind nothing to see here!!!

Not saying he certainly would plus I th8nk you could get him for much less. But coulda shoulda woulda they have it covered. At this point they need to hope the money was well invested. Who knows Ivan could come in with a whole offseason to work and train in Philly and be lights out a steal. Or they let him finish out his contract and the year Michkov comes over bring Bob the Prodigal son back to lead the to the Cup and 37-39 whatever age he would be then...he only has 2 more left on his deal he signed with the Jackets. Stranger things have happened

Enjoy...

Didn't see this. I still would have paid it. And would have hoped Michkov would understand. I would have waited and made a run at Anthony Stolarz. Panthers have always kinds of cap issues and could afford to offer him very much. Being a Jersey kid and an X-Flyer I feel they would've had an edge in signing him. Well that dream has sailed...

Only 2 players left from his era. Scott and Coots. He doesn't want to part with him. So when they win the Cup with them he can still say yeah see I help build a Cup winner. But guess what? They ain't wining no Cup with those 2 maybe after they have moved them but not with them.

How do you know this he was making 275K to jump to 3 million? Where do you get that info from?

Yes they greased his palms with the contract promise (for all we know showed him they already had it drawn up - can't say) for the way it sounds. Basically let him hurt his one year he owed them for 1 million or what ever with the 3 games he played regardless of how he looked and then just gave him a 2 year deal for 6 million. Which I guess sends a bad signal to every prospect back home that you have to earn your contract. I guess in hopes Michkov approves.

exactly why i added the laughing emoji didn't even take as long as i thought it would in fact 1 minute flat

I think i can soundly speak for every Flyer here we ain't doing it for fun!!!! If i am wrong someone here say so...

Damn you had to go and jinx them...

No send me some. I'll burn it for them!!! Promise!!!

Disappointed Kolosov isn't getting the start. No reason to even be playing Petersen. Flyers do know there is nothing to be gained by tanking in the AHL right?

That is a good point of the optic of Michkov...but still there is nothing wrong with negotiations rather than just handing him the money but i guess when Cal Peterson sucking up 3.8 million for 2 more years i guess it isn't a big deal.

And from reports I seen this morning this contract was pretty much agreed upon to get him to leave Russia his play in the games he got in be damned. And if this is true this is just a bad desperate way to run a business. But I am sure he was encouraged by the ones above him if they didn't even maybe suggest it. #mind blowing

Absolutely especially when they still going to let teams circumvent it like they have been all i ask is the NHL keeps that same energy so one day soon maybe Flyer can take advantage of these same loopholes

Calder Cup win or bust!!!!!!!

Who?
