    I am laughing at the idea Kevin Hayes is worth more than a sixth at any salary. Dude is a sentient box of Krispy Kreme’s. I’m just glad we didn’t have to give anything up.
  2. SCFlyguy
    Flyers need to hit a HR with 7, not a bloop single. Draft him if he is there.
  3. SCFlyguy
    Why would you blame anyone for not wanting to play for the Flyers? They're losers and will be for years. What 32 year old wants that?
  4. SCFlyguy
    Subject to the final deal, this is giving me more faith in Briere than even the Provorov deal. Realizing that no matter what they are going to be terrible for the next 2-3 years and using cap space they don't need to grab assets that will help down the road is smart.

    Ahem! My first post on this site, prompted by Hayes signing:
  6. SCFlyguy
    Agreed on that, but if it's 17, a 2nd and a prospect and/or another 2nd - you're getting into me taking it territory. Edit: That was to radoran.
  7. SCFlyguy
    I will believe it when Hayes is on another team and the Flyers aren’t retaining 50%. Until then, I don’t see it.
  8. SCFlyguy
    I don't think you could do the retention based on player stats, but you could do the picks around a player stat. Maybe some stat Hayes is likely to achieve like 6 donuts per day?
  9. SCFlyguy
    You're not getting rid of Hayes without including a pick with him, unless you retain max salary (50%) and even then, you're not getting more than a third I would guess. I would do that deal in a heartbeat. What I won't do is any deal where we are extending his cap hit (such as a buyout would) or including assets with him to make it happen.

    That's not a bad interview at all. "Too much patchwork" is a pretty good description of the last 15 years.
  11. SCFlyguy
    NGAF about the cap is how they signed him for $7M in the first place.
  12. SCFlyguy
    Because who cares what their cap situation is while they are going to be bad? I care about the cap situation after that, when we all hope things have turned around and they can compete again. I put that at least three years away. You could buy him out then for less of a hit as well.
  13. SCFlyguy
    I hated the Kevin Hayes signing so bad it made me sign up for this site. My Kevin Hayes sux bona fides are impeccable. I absolutely agree to get rid of him if it doesn't cost you anything. But I don't spend cap space on players who aren't playing for you anymore, especially if patience will get him off the cap sooner.
  14. SCFlyguy
    Because patience is better in the long run. But Flyers fans want everything immediately, I get it.
  15. SCFlyguy
    You sound like the guy who negotiated the contract in the first place, “bro”.
  16. SCFlyguy
    Buying him out is a bad idea. You’re hoping to be good in the last years of the buyout when you take the cap hit and you will need the cap space then. You don’t need the cap space the next couple years when they aren’t completing for anything.
  17. SCFlyguy
    I would trade him to Pittsburgh if they gave us enough, because I think they are going to be bad in a year or two and those could be high picks.
  18. SCFlyguy
    With Sanheim's contract, they would have to give up a pick to trade him - they certainly aren't getting #12 back.
  19. SCFlyguy
    I don't think you're getting anything for him unless he plays well leading up to the deadline.
  20. SCFlyguy
    You're just another Flyer fan that isn't patient enough for a real rebuild. Fantilli is your new shiny toy this offseason. There are many like you.
  21. SCFlyguy
    Sorry, it was confusing. I was saying that you were suggesting a strategy straight out of the Paul Holmgren playbook: decide the player you want, then (over)pay whatever price it took to get them. I don't see this team finishing between 10th and 12th next year unless they find a #1 defenseman and a #1 center loitering outside the Wells Fargo Center. I am fine with this.
  22. SCFlyguy
    Lmfao, this is straight out of the foreword of Paul Holmgren's book on being a GM. Who cares what the cost is? Get your man.
  23. SCFlyguy
    One thing the Flyers could do is retain salary on Peterson so his salary is more in line with a backup and trade him for a 3rd or 4th.
  24. SCFlyguy
    As exhibited by the fact that LA already used that space extending one of their other defensemen.
  25. SCFlyguy
    Maybe both (trade Hart for multiple picks and trade back).
