Did Aziz say he was a former goalie? Maybe the Flyers sign him to a PTO contract see if he can help. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was sliding big time last year before the injury. I hope Ron has a plan that doesn't involve throwing Hart to the Wolves. Well, I remember a kid named Hextall who took the Flyers to Game 7 of the SCF in 1987. I know that was a much better team, but they might not have much of a choice right now. They just need a HEALTHY, capable backup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I guess, but it's a dangerous roll of the dice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the one draw back is the finally may have a franchise goalie here. Finally. Is that worth damaging his confidence if it doesn't go right? I can't fully say. Hell he could come in and blow the league away. Or the team in front of him could come in and have their yearly usual slow start he gets lit the f**k up and then they send him down and he takes awhile to get over that demotion and it sets him back further if he comes to the AHL and struggles. You can't undo that. All I know is I'm glad I don't have to make that call. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruxpin Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Geoffrey Owens needs a better job. Give him a call. He can probably act like a goalie better than Elliott can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OccamsRazor Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 (edited) With only two more preseason games left I let Stolie play the whole next game...while game praying he can show he is ready to help more then spit the last game between Elliott and Stolie and the best man starts the season opener. Vegas is waiting and licking their chops... Edited September 25, 2018 by OccamsRazor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OccamsRazor Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Hell the Kings waived Petr Budaj I would claim him and see what he can do. At least he can stay healthy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL Think along the lines of what St. Louis had to give up to move Lehtera. It wouldn't be anywhere near that to move Elliott, but the point being that not only would we not get something back for him but might actually have to pay out. I may be okay with that.

It's no secret that I don't like Elliott a little bit, so I'd move him for a broken skate sharpener. The question is whether another team is willing to give that up or if they'd want a third rounder for it as well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howie58 Posted September 25, 2018 Author Share Posted September 25, 2018 At what point do we have to worry about Stolarz on waivers if he is sent down? I'd hate to lose him with no compensation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd hate to lose him with no compensation. I think he will get claimed.....a former 2nd round pick with not many NHL games under his belt yet he played pretty well in the games he played in.......should have gotten more playing time when Mason and Neuvy got hurt....but that is an argument for another time. Myself i let him back Elliott (who should have a short leash himself from what i have seen) and if Elliott struggles (like is expected by me) then give Stolie a shot...best shot is he could play well and maybe when Lyon is healthy you could trade Lyon or Stolie instead of losing one of them on waivers for nothing. Maybe. However i have turned the page on Neuvy i'm waiving him as soon as i can...he can tandem with Hart in LV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a hell of a payment for a stop gap you don't intend to keep, but I'd think about it. Yeah, that's an overpayment on Ottawa's part, but their GM is terribad, so we might even be able to get a pick out of it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah i would swap Friedman out with Hagg and see if that does it. Seems like Ottawa would be ok with that considering the get out from under Anderson's contract for 2019-20 too. And get Elliott and Condon in net so they look like they are trying. It is risky for the Flyers next year if Anderson bombs though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
