  1. It is being reported that the Flyers have resigned Razor, 1 yr - 1 mil.
  2. @jammer2 I agree and I wouldn't trade Laughton but knowing Holmgren's track record of trading talent for over-the-hill players anything could happen.
  3. If a C is traded it will prolly be Laughton.
  4. Trainer's milestoneJim McCrossin, the Flyers' trainer/conditioning coach, took part in his 1,500th career game Tuesday. He has been in the league for 17 seasons - 16 with the Flyers, one with Hartford. "I'm hoping for another 1,500," McCrossin said.

  5. McCrossin, 1500 games and counting. . . . .
  6. I know that JVR only played 7 games for the Phantoms and I was in attendance for a game he played in Norfolk vs. Admirals. I can't say about the other 6 games but he was awful and look totally uninterested in Norfolk. I was not impressed with him at all especially being the 2nd overall pick in the draft. I also feel that JVR wasn't used properly with the Flyers. Whether that figured into his nonchalant attitude I don't know but I could see how the Flyers gave up on him. My only complaint about the trade is we should have insisted on more from Toronto.
  7. Yeah, maybe he'll asked to be traded.
  8. I said it before, Read and Simmonds should switch lines. Read is much more of a gifted scorer and IMO is a 2nd line player.
  9. Sounds like you were talking about Subban instead of Joni.
  10. I didn't see Timonen's heart or effort on the capitals break away goal on Friday night. He really hesitated and was the reason the caps player was able to go in on Emery virtually uncontested. Just my 2 cents.
  11. @King Knut Missing Briere now? You are really laughable. Thanks for a good laugh during this frustrating flyers season.
  12. Just about every night this year someone (other than Flyers) are being suspended because of a cheap shot intentional boarding and/or elbowing and no one cries about that. In addition, most games involve a player being jumped by another. The flyers are no different than other other team when it comes to fist-a-cuffs. In an effort to match the big bad bruins and dirty blues back in the day the flyers matched their mentality to make things equal and give them a chance. Ever since then they haven't been able to lose the Bullies tag. What happened vs the capitals has been played many many times before by all NHL team.
  13. Sunday morning headline: Holmgren canned.
