jkgproductions Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 For a while I though that the Flyers were going to trade for Halak. Do yout hink he would've been a good fit for the Flyers as opposed to Emery? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murraycraven Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 (edited) Emery is cheaper and seems to have his head on straight while Halak seems to have had some issues with the Blues... We gave up nothing to sign Emery as well. I will take a tandem of Emery and Mason each and every day. Competition is a good thing and I think Emery has really turned into a very good Team guy...

doom88 Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 Emery is a better fit. He's already been in Philly once and he had some success. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radoran Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 At this point Halak will be available as a UFA if neither Emery nor Mason pan out.Flyers seem to be in good shape with their goalie situation and all we had to do was lose half a season of hockey to get it.For this year, anyway.

terp Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 For a while I though that the Flyers were going to trade for Halak. Do yout hink he would've been a good fit for the Flyers as opposed to Emery?Emery is the best fit in hockey to play along side Mason. He knows and likes Mason, has played in Philly before and wants to be there, is comfortable with sharing the duties, is a veteran presence and, most importantly, can really play. I'm thrilled with this signing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dilbert719 Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 I prefer Emery and Mason, for the reasons everyone already listed above. Honestly, I'd be comfortable signing them both to longer deals than just the one year, but perhaps that's too much risk for the team to take at the moment.

mkscrewy Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 i'm stoked on getting Emery back. it was one less braindead move by Homer, so there's much to be celebrated just with this one transaction alone. i always think back, if all other things being equal in 2010 if we'd had a healthy Emery in goal....... i can't even bring myself to say it.
