    Sean O'Donell ??

    Whats he 100yrs old ?!?!?!

    Token old, slow d-man that the flyers seem to have one of every season... and another goon.

    It's almost like Holmgren, forgot that his team was just in the Finals.

    Slow old guys are hard to find :x

    Pens signed Asham not far from a goon..looks like Hamhuis stuck the Pens as well

    hamhuis just signed with vancouver. 5 years, 4.5 mill per

    EDIT: hamhuis got 6 years from vancouver

    holy shit, o'donnel is 39. didn't realize he was that old. what, petr svoboda wasn't available?

    not bad for a 6th defenseman. now they can keep kraijeck or bartulis as the 7th guy.

    I guess shelley means asham is gone too. I thought he was solid for the flyers

    Asham went to the Ice Chickens

    Gonna turn my stomach when he has stick up for Crosby

    asham will go with anyone, but he's not a brawler. Shelly on the other hand kills people. I just wish the NHL still had fighting

    volchenkov to NJ...this division sure as hell isn't getting any easier

    Any rumours in Philly about Tim Thomas going to you guys. It has been discussed here in Boston. Bad contract may be the hold back. Plus he is 100yrs old

    In the beginning I did but not since the Free Agent period started

    I'm still hearing a possible trade with LA for Quick

    With their Cap situation I wouldn't be surpised if Gagne goes he's up for a new contract after this coming season and they want something for him

    They are saying he may land somewhere once all of the FA goalies are locked up. The Thomas to Philly thing has been off and on for the last year.

    No players have been discussed or what they want back but I heard they're shopping him

    It makes sense he's a UFA next year he will be 31 and has been injury prone

    He makes over 5mil so they wont be re-signing him

    Yeah gagne waved his no trade. Sucks, he's. Been around a long time. And id rather see carter go, plus he'd bring more in a trade.

    We shall see...looks like a goalie is coming. That's great news as long as he's not tim thomas

    Who are top 4 wings if gagne leaves? Gotta think carter moves to wing. Leino. Hartnell. Who else??? Jvr? Gotta get something in the trade right?

    This is clearly a cap move for the flyers wouldnt be surprised if they only get Picks back for Gagne

    Then they sign MARTY TURCO as their Number 1 Goalie at about 3-4mil a year

    I don't want Turco,Thomas or Nabby...if I'm getting a goalie I want a young guy that can be here for awhile and grow

    I hope Im wrong about Turco but that's what is out there and I heard he wants to come here now

    Sad to see Gagne go I always thought he'd end his career here..but he is injury prone and making some nice cash

    Carter isnt going anywhere Homer loves the kid but I would move him to wing less defensive responsibility

    I seriously doubt Thomas is coming here Turco I'm hearing

    Now this is turning into a Soap Opera with Gagne...keep hearing different things by the day

    From Tim Panaccio's Twitter :

    Rumors that the Philadelphia Flyers are trying to clear salary cap room not for a goalie, but for Bobby Ryan.

    :wtf:
