One of the greatest hockey photos ever...

He was one of the all time greats. Having a 1 in 6 chance of winning is obviously a lot better than 1 in 32. And going 2 rounds was a lot easier than going 4 now. The Habs back in those days though were clearly the cream of the crop.

That's worth Konecny right there!

I'd trade Konecny. Not for Zegras, unless their 1st rounder is coming with it and it's not.

If they sent Konecny for Zegras that would tell me that Briere was full on listening while Fletcher was mentoring him.

The 2nd round? Maybe keep some of them and see what happens.

And they've won a post bellbottoms and platform shoes cup too.

Funny how Clarke never mentioned this until years later when Makar was a star. Clarke wanted a smaller offensive defenceman over a 200 foot WHL centre? I call bs.

I don't look for the worst in everything. The thing with the Flyers is, you don't have to look for the worst, it just comes and beats you in the face. EVERY...FREAKIN' ....SEASON! If they tore this team down and did an actual rebuild, I would LOVE following this team again. I'm just sick and tired of barely in, barely out.

That would be soooooo Flyers to tank in the AHL. What, we don't get to pick 1st in the AHL draft? Who knew?

All fine and dandy to give the kid a chance, or any other prospects. It's the paying them for what you hope they become that I have the issue with. We're good mojo...we're always good. It's just sometimes your optimism makes me sick!

In the last 20 drafts, there have been arguably a handful of players better than Laughton taken at the 20th pick, where he was. In the last 20 years they might arguably be a handful of GMs worse than Holmgren. Hardly the same thing. Laughton isn't great. But he's far from terrible. He's an average player making an average salary. Every team has them. Several. I just can't see the hate

I've never said they should play hardball, ever. Pay them what they're worth. pay them what they earn. Stop paying them for Gee maybe if we grossly overpay Hayes he'll grow a spine and break a sweat. Look at the looooooooooooooooooong list of bad contracts this team has given out....it's ridiculous. Every year we talk about buyouts and getting out from under these stupid deals, just to sign more of them. Meet the new boss.....

Ya, thank God they're getting rid of those bad contracts so they can make room....for more bad contracts.

Lets see, they're still paying Bryz NOT to play, they're paying Peterson to NOT play in the NHL and they just re-upped Fedotov for 2 years at $3.25 million for putting up some of the worst numbers I've seen in the NHL. Why doesn't Comcast just get an incinerator for their money?
