Irishjim Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 from Flyersnation.net According to Renaud Lavoie, the Flyers have waived defenseman Bruno Gervais and forward Adam Hall. Gervais and Hall will be able to be sent to the Phantoms if they clear.Hall is a surprise because it could leave the Flyers with just 12 forwards for opening night. It looks like Scott Laughton could be sticking for more than nine games and be the fourth line center or third line left winger this season unless there's a trade brewing.

Leach27 Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 I never liked gervais, but didn't we just sign hall? wtf? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pilldoc Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 Welcome back Irish! Good to see ya! Don't get the Hall move. Thought he played pretty well at the end of last year. So does this mean Laughton is sticking around for more games???? Gervais...-----> A pylon plays better defense. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doom88 Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 Eh, likely Hall is in the A for Laughton's 9 NHL games. Then Laughton to juniors, and Hall to the Flyers 4th line. Seems fine to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just showed what he's made of by dropping the gloves a few times while being a good faceoff guy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
off_the_post Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 Agreed. I don't like the Hall move either. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJgoal Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 The Hall move might just be to clear cap space for day one. They don't have to assign him if he clears waivers. But since the Flyers don't play day one of the season, they can waive him and just keep him around as a paperwork move. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jammer2 Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 If Hall was lost, it would not be a tremendous tragedy, but he is a nice 4th liner. Good on draws, good teammate, decent wheels, dogged puck pursuit....like most Flyer fans, hope he makes it back. Very excited about a possible Laughton preview. I love Doom's scenario, Laughton for a nine game preview, then back to Oshawa and a recall of Hall. That would be an absolutely perfect outcome. If Laughton plays out of his mind, he stays, and then Hall becomes the first Phantom injury recall. The presence of McCrossin alone would mean Hall would be a Flyer by mid-October. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leach27 Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 Your dignity?@doom88. I go to what's local, whether it be Flyers @ Leafs at the acc or catch an ohl game. The drive to Philly from here is 10 hrs, and would be expensive. Do you only go to see the Flyers in Philly and attend no other sports events?? You live in maryland don't you?

I'm only 90 min from Philly now, so I might make a few extra trips up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojo1917 Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 I'd rather Gervais than Gil.Used properly he's fine, he's not a top 4 by any stretch but was forced into those type of minutes last year and it showed his flaws. Bruno is younger, faster, has more two way upside than Gil who, let's face it, will truly look like a pylon in our orange. Plus Gervais is a good guy in the community and locker room , not that Hal won't be, but I thought Bruno was a good guy. The business of sport is pretty harsh, I get it but I'm not wild about it.

Remember Eagle's Nest? Super cheap, 5-10 USD. Plus, other seats were eligible for student discounts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Quigster Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 The suprising thing about the Flyer's handling of Hall is he is a great faceoff guy,as we saw in the Caps game,definitely a stand-up guy(something that is missing here)that gives you what he's got. This team has no soul,no leader,no direction and a lousy GM and coach,that have the Flyers on a long ride to no where. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should still sign Gagne, pair him with Claude and Jake and put Hartnell on the missing wing, Hartnell fills the grinder mold and can score as well.
