    July NHL News/Free Agent Frenzy

    Neuvirth to the Flyers Depends on your definition of dirty. Rinaldo runs guys but it's more stupid hits than deliberate dirtiness. Downie's stuff, you watch what he does and there's clear intent.

    July NHL News/Free Agent Frenzy

    Since as I recall we had separate news and free agency threads last year, I thought why not combine it, since much of the July news will be FA related in some way anyway.   NHL Network has a Signing Season show at 10AM leading up to their Free Agent Frenzy show starting at 1. Pretty meh UFA...

    Bruins acquire Zac Rinaldo from Flyers

    I probably like Zac Rinaldo more than 99% of Flyers fans. But he is what he is, and I don't see Julien playing him because of the occasional stupid crap he pulls. Feels like Sweeney could have found a grit guy who's a bit more responsible and functional as a player. Especially if he was willing...

    Eastern Conference Quarterfinals Gamethread

    Yea, the Flyers sucked against non-playoff teams in general ;) Tampa is fast, they're fun to watch.

    Yea I was killing Capuano the other night for not pulling Halak earlier, especially with a power play.

    True, but that's regular season. I knew TB won the season series, but I didn't realize how lopsided it was.

    And Tampa advances. Not sure how they'll fare vs the Habs though.

    Best Player/Worst Skater

    Most of mine have been named already (Robitaille, Kerr, Andreycuk, Hartnell). Most of the power forwards didn't have great wheels (Stevens, Tocchet). Mike Knuble was a turtle.

    2015 NHL Draft

    I don't know about Bettman. Toronto as a market thrives regardless, he would probably rather have had one of his crap expansion/relocation markets get him. Arizona or Miami or Raleigh, one of those.

    2015 NHL Draft

    Greg no, if you wanted to be AIDS you needed to keep Neal. Or Cooke. You definitely do. But mainly I'm thinking about the media frenzy that would ensue if the Leafs won. Also you had one, nobody forced Nonis to trade Clarkson. Or maybe they did.

    Jesus Christ...McDavid should pull a Lindros. At least it wasn't Toronto.
