OH1FlyersFan Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 This was in the hometown newspaper - the Columbus Dispatch today. Take it with a grain of salt. The Dispatch hockey reporting is notoriously poor, but it is intriguing......if true. According to the article, "Sources said Holmgren called Howson the day before the NHL draft in St. Paul, Minn., to say he was ready to make the move — but not before he dropped a bombshell: “You want ’em both?” Holmgren asked Howson, meaning Carter and Flyers captain Mike Richards." http://bluejacketsxtra.dispatch.com/content/stories/2013/12/20/flyers-offered-richards-to-jackets-too.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radoran Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 Fuggedabout Bob, can you imagine if Crater and Richards were the foundation of the Blue Jackets franchise that just got bounced into the Flyers' division? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
