    no offense to the guy, but he is one of those interchangeable players.

    I would have rather kept Asham and let Carcillo go

    At least Asham brings something to the table playoff time

    The ONLY thing better than a glass of beer is tea with Miss McGill

    I agree but he played well for us in the playoffs. not worth that money but when you think that we signed Shelly for 1.1 mil.

    I don't mind carcillo. he was decent in the playoffs this past year. even got an OT goal.

    either way it's no big deal

    I don't love him either. he had a good year though. he was one of their better forwards during the regular season.

    asham was nothing special

    I'd take either player over carter

    ha, awesome. definitely something I would do.

    I wish the flyers would leave me alone. calls, emails, snail mail...they must be desperate for season ticket holders

    I got thinking about an all knucklehead team, though mostly since '97, as I remember loving everyone as a kid in the '80s. Nominees:

    1. Billy Tibbetts - He'll make the list on any team.
    2. Jesse Boulerice - Still can't help but refer to him as Bowl of Rice
    3. Roman Cechmanek - Can he blame it on all those pucks to the noggin?
    4. Steve Downie - I championed this kid for awhile. His board work in World Jrs was among the best I've seen. And now I'm glad he's finally turned himself into something TB. However, he was nothing but a bonehead in the Orange & Black.

    I loved Downie. Still pissed that they traded him for Vinny Prospal. Terrible.

    Matthew Barnaby is tops on your list for me

    This guy is an ancient mortal enemy of the Flyers - let's sign Kasparitis & Barnaby while we're at it.

    I like the old school uniforms, but it's funny that they were trying to spiff up the logo just a few years ago, and now they're back to the 70s. Thank God they're not wearing black anymore.

    I think I've gotten used to the colored unis at home. That's how they did it until the early 70s; we just grew up with whites at home and got used to that. For some reason, on occasion they do wear whites at home - it really confuses me, even more. Anybody have any idea on this?
