Not saying the Flyers would have won or even deserved to get Bedard. All I am saying is it's a little weird Bedard going to Chicago is the best for the league, and shazam it happens. Makes one go hmmm.
I'm not much of a conspiracy nut, but jeez when you hear 3 prominent hockey broadcasters say league wise as marketing and best franchise to sell the league is Chicago. And low and behold Chicago wins, kinda makes one think. I truly wouldn't put it past Betman to fix the draft to market the league.
For all you wanting Michkov.
No F'n way, wait till the 2027 season then hope he come over.
Nope, no way.
Last year, he signed a contract extension with SKA St. Petersburg that will keep him in the Eastern Hemisphere through the 2025-26 season.
Agreed, move Hart and TK while you can or they will jump ship as soon as their contracts are up and I wouldn't blame them one bit.
The **** show that is the Flyers are going nowhere in the next 5 years.
Kevin Hayse is the most useless player on the Flyers. And that is saying a lot on this team.
For someone his size he is almost invisible when he is on the ice.
Holy crap I hate him as a player.
