FlyersFan4Life Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Per Inside sources Predators will not match Flyers offer. Front Loaded contract too much for Preds to handle. Flyers will get their man— Howard Eskin (@heskinCSN) July 19, 2012 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackStraw Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 (edited) Eskin is kind of a clown, but he has a history of being right on these kinds of things. Edited July 19, 2012 by JackStraw 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digityman Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Eskin is kind of a clown, but he has a history of being right of these kinds of things.I agree. He does usually get it right. I'm not sure how he would have a source in Nashville though.We'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackStraw Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 @Digityman - I think he was out front on the Richards and/or Carter trades, wasn't he? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaGreatGazoo Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 I despise Eskin..but I have also said on this board, many times, that he has some very reliable sources when it comes to Flyers news. He was also out in front on the Pronger back surgery and the Pronger concussion issue, IIRC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky13 Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Holy @&^#. Deal of the century if we get Weber for picks. My instinct is he would not have signed the offer sheet if he expected the Preds to match it, since I'm of the opinion he wants out of Nashville, and wouldn't want to be locked up there for 14 years.Trying now to Keep Calm And Carry On.

Mad Dog Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Too good to be true, but Eskin (despite being a jerk that he is) has legit sources........ or so I understand. I think he was the first who broke the news of Richards and Carter traded well before each trade was even done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
