well then i guess id try it if he wanted to
idk it just weird g+v are both really good and you think anybody would do good and fit in but they dont
look they lost raffl for a bit and had schenn the line lost so much chemistry they got split up at one point becasue they couldnt score raffl just really compliments the 2 of them
even when hartsy was around if he was struggling it was usually raffl put on the line to give it a surge



if the gms even let him
and i know hes owned by nj they would prob just trade him to the highest bidder

he's coming back to the NHL, not the flyers.

kovalchuk is coming to the habs

he wants to win a cup and habs are his best chance



or hes gonna remake the thrashers

Flyers can't afford him. This isn't a situation like Heatley or Ribeiro, Kovalchuk is worth 6.5m AAV at a minimum.

and flyers shipped out 6.5m at the deadline
and prob shed more in the offseason

and using that cap space on a forward is definitely a smart idea for the flyers...

Kovalchuk isn't taking a one year deal and after 2015-2016 you have to re-sign Raffl, Couturier, Both Schenns, and Voracek. Not to mention get some kind of help on defense if they want to have any chance at being competitive.

it is we lack a true top 6 lw raffl should be a good 3rd liner tops schenn is a center that sucks at wing
why the fuck hextall traded hartsy blows my mind he struggled at times sure but not nearly as much as our offense without him

so many times this season flyers lost a game where mason gave them a grade a chance to win but they couldnt score even witho ur crappy D the lack of offense lost philly lots of games


hopefully the schenns are gone by then if we still have them flyers are surely tanking luke is inconsistent as fuck he has good moments but way more WTF moments andi f we keep schenn as lw becasue of our center depth were screwed
also umburgers 4m should run out around then too that helps and if vinny retires theres another 4.5 i think cuz it wasnt a 35+ contract?
were still stuck with macdonalds contract though homer musta been smokin crack to give him that

just a question,
if NJ / koval voided the contract, and he does come back to NHL
why does NJ own him? shouldnt he be FA?

voided the contract but they probably still own his rights

so hed be an RFA i guess, and maybe nj can trade his rights?

not completely sure
