    I don't think the Flyers get either Nash or Ryan. I will say this again Flyers get a d-man.

    I wonder what the Flyers think of the free agent Justin Schultz. I hear only good things about him.

    Trade apparently imminent. Guess that means There has to be a bigger trade coming up. A backup will prob be part of a multi-player deal.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt

    I stand alone without beliefs

    Making that trade frees up 1.75mill.

    I just read one of them is #45 this year. What should I tell my son to do with his autographed photo of Bob?
    Alright, alright, alright!

    I like that alot!! I have a feeling Bobby Ryan will be here. I know they want Scheen,not sure if i'd part with him though. Although the last can't miss product is still sucking it up for the Phillies. Everytime i here about prospects i'll forever think of Dom Brown.
    Go Birds!!!!

    With Bobrovsky off the books, the Flyers have nearly $11-million in cap sapce and with Pronger on the LTIR, it's almost at $16-million.

    Yeah, but that's per year isn't it? They have to includ him back on the books at the start of each year right? So, essentially they have alleviate that space every season. I know the NHL had some kind of problem with his contract and made sure that a his age that they wouldn't get any kind of salary cap relief if he retired.

    Very good trade for Philly. I like the picks for bob. i am hoping that these picks will be used as trade bait for a good d-man.

    who is now the backup again, i am forgetting?

    As long as he isnt retired and put on LTIR, the Flyers will get his salary off the cap once the season begins. They can then spend his cap hit during the year.

    Got ya. But they would have to do that every year as long as he's on LTIR correct? And if so, doesn't that only allow them to make short-term moves with that money - as in on a year-to-year basis - because each year that cap hit will take place until the proceeding season begins and they put him back on LTIR?

    i hear leighton can be had for cheap

    one of the guys in the minors will need to step up or a cheap FA


    still a good deal....sign an undrafted FA and turn him into 3 draft picks.

    Yea basically. Holmgren will have to manage the cap correctly to get back under after the playoffs.
    Hopefully with the new CBA, the Flyers will be able to get some kind of buyout from Prongers contract.
