Cheesesteak Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 I will breathe much easier when I hear VLC has been traded...please let that happen today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bertmega Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 It probably will happen soon. He is a good player, but does not fit the make up of the Flyers roster. I'd imagine that he'll go to a team that will basically guarantee him to be a 2nd line center or better.Kind of like the deal Jagr got a few years back. I do not know what Holmgren promised VLC last summer, maybe he thought he could convert Schenn to a LW or something along those lines. I also do not like Couturier and Read on the 3rd line. I want to see if they can actually become prolific scorers. The make up of this team is not good. I'd like to see if Simmonds can flip to LW and play on the top line and move Read to the 2nd line. Who knows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polaris922 Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Umm... that's gonna cost the Flyers I think. I honestly thought the VLC for Upshall idea was lucky for you guys. It won't be easy dumping his contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It won't be easy dumping his contract. I would have agreed with that thought, VLC being tough to dump, but hey....Bolland was just given 5.5 mill a year, has never shown VLC's scoring touch and has not played a game since "severing" his acchilies tendon. In that type of atmosphere, it makes VLC's contract almost look good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Knut Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 I thought for sure it would happen today. Now that it hasn't I'm getting nervous. Those Hockey Gods seem to sound a lot like crickets!I will breathe much easier when I hear VLC has been traded...please let that happen today.

Mad Dog Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 VLC has no future with this team... Moving him benefits both the Flyers and VLC. He will get moved, I am sue of that. It's not a question of 'if"; it's a question of 'when'. It would sure be bteer to have him moved already so that the Flyers could have signed someone. But at this point, with most of the free agents who are worth something gone, it almost doesn't matter how soo he gets moved, I guess. But I just can't imagine he is still here when the training camp begins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
