Khabibulin or Giguere??? <~~~~~~ H ell Maybe we can talk this guy out of retirement.

Have a $51 million contract.

Yuck...I get your point but can't follow ya on that one. There's no way a guy gets to the NHL without enjoying competition. Asham over JvR? Whew. IMO, if it happens, we will regret trading JvR.

I typically only read the threads here but want to start posting more. You always seem to be level-headed; what are your thoughts?

Unless he is a part of a deal to get an ESTABLISHED GOALTENDER...Even if, I'd rather part with Schenn and I like Schenn (just my opinion!) However, trading JvR for Dustin Brown makes very little sense to me even if Bernier is a part of the deal...That would be a lateral move completely since he is essentially Bob. Am I the only one not looking to unload JvR just for the sake of a trade?

Can't agree more. I was throughly confused when I saw Simmonds lumbering down the ice instead of Giroux.

I don't think he played well last night...Here's why: The Flyers played VERY safe hockey in their own end last night. It's obvious they realize their shortcomings and are trying to let Bryz get confidence back by not allowing any really good chances. I have been a Bryz apologist all year, but I'm beginning to lose confidence that he will get it together. Granted, Nabakov was rediculous last night and we deserved a W, but Bryz did very little to deserve a SO. People may disagree, but I didn't see any huge saves from him last night...Those saves were all at the other end of the ice. Shoot outs suck and I'm not a fan of them, but when Bryz is finally called upon to make some key saves he blows it. If he was truly "in the zone" enough to earn a SO he would have had a more respectable showing in the shoot out. I would like to see Bryz start against Toronto and Bob vs. NYR. I wasn't happy after last night's game because I felt a late goal coming any minute, especially on the PP in the final minutes. Flyers fans just have to keep thinking that hopefully this year we will get hot at the right time and ride that through the playoffs.
