    I'm reserving judgement until the dust settles. who knows what they have planned for the draft tomorrow and the rest of the offseason.

    agree If they somehow get Stamkos I will then apologize on here and kiss homer's feet :)

    All the Flyers needed to add to their roster was a solid, consistent goalie. Trading 2 of your best forwards for an 'elite' goalie is ridiculous to me. If I was you guys, I'd probably be drinking by now. Schenn will probably pay dividends down the road, but still.

    that's the exact point i've been trying to make in this thread. maybe there is more coming but as of now its kind of baffling to me at least.

    that makes sense to some extent, but at this point, we can only go with the info that we currently have.

    it'll be interesting for sure to watch what unfolds over the next 7-10 days

    Signing Stamkos is Tampa Bay's #1 priority. If the Flyers get him, I will drink my own urine.

    yeah, I'm sure he's real loyal to tampa.

    come on man. if the flyers can give him more money you don't think he's gonna come here?

    If Yzerman wasn't close to a deal with him, his rights would have been traded by now.

    yeah, I'm sure there's huge demand for a guy that's gonna be a free agent in 24 hours :?

    Key words: "by now"

    But if that's what you guys want to tell yourselves to feel better about today, by all means, don't let me stop you.

    I'm not counting on them getting stamkos. Like I said, I'm reserving judgement until the rest of the pieces fall into place here. The flyers have a ton of cap space, the owner just sold the sixers, and they always spend right up to the cap. So I'm not exactly going out on a limb when I'm predicting there are more moves coming

    I can't imagine having to watch jeff carter for the next decade. Poor columbus

    Let’s remember Stamkos is going to be an RFA not a UFA .......no way Tampa doesn’t match any offer unless it’s over 10 Mil per year ........and guess what the compensation back to Tampa is going to be 4 first round draft picks!

    anyone know where to find a FA list?
