I think Buffalo could be a good trade partner this summer. They have that good goalie prospect but he’s probably not ready to step in next year. Send Hart and Laughton for their 23 First, 24 second and third round picks. Someone throw that in Fletchers trade calculator.

According to the girl who posted the vid:



The $1500 chair was apparently busted but they've done a gofundme to replace it and it's way over its goal.

Yeah, I saw the woman’s original post on twitter. I don’t know. I’d rather hear from the school or the police on this, than some kid’s tweet, before passing judgement. It sure looks worse than something you can just pass off as a dumb kid doing a dumb thing. This seems more mean spirited than drunken high jinks.

It looks worse than a kid being a dumb Ahole? Do tell. Because that’s exactly what it looks like

Do I really need to explain this? A dumb ahole pushes his teammate’s bike down the stairs. A mean spirited person pushes a handicapped girl’s wheelchair down the stairs

I don't believe that Hart would fetch that high of a price but you never know.

Saying that anything about that little video made you glad is the first step in letting Carson Briere off the hook.

“At least she wasn’t in it when he pushed her wheelchair down the stairs”

“Yes, you can replace things. You can’t replace people.”

And this is why nothing will happen to Carson Briere for doing this.

Just curious. What do you think the appropriate punishment would be?

Aren’t we all glad he didn’t get traded? What a goal by Seeler!

It really is terrific how he has increased his value this season. Even if he gets traded next deadline, it’s not because he isn’t liked or good, rather it’s because the Flyer’s need draft capital. Same for all the Flyer’s players that will be discussed over the next year. They won’t all get traded, and it might have nothing to do with who we would want them to keep or who we think that they will trade. Being open to listen on everything, to me means looking at taking the best deals on the market. It might not end up being much movement until next deadline and offseason, so be it. There is absolutely no reason to give away the Flyer’s best players. I imagine teams interested in TK or Provy would be different than the teams interested in Sanheim or Hart. Hopefully, there are real opportunities available. Likewise, losing any younger, developing player should be about receiving a return that is worth it. We’ll see.

Anything short of breathless calls for public execution will not be good enough for the virtue signalling crowd.

I keed of course.

My opinion on the matter is that he should have to pay for the new wheelchair or do some sort of community service like most idiots have been doing since time immemorial.

And how this particular board can implement it?

Feels like there are not enough high horses in the stable.

He that had not done dumb, mean things in college among you, let him first cast a stone at Carson

Idk. Hart probably too young for buffalo. They have proven they will not block levy’s path to team. He’s signing pro deal this year. Adams has said he will be given chance to make team next year. Not likely obviously probably will spend a year in ahl. Would you give up a higher 1st rounder(assuming buffalo no playoffs) for 2 year rental of hart? I guess maybe. Wouldn’t be worse move to be made.

Bettman said recently that the cap may now go up more than the projected 1M. If revenue continues and grow and exceed expectations. The players escrow could be paid off. He also said that discussions may be held to raise it even if escrow is not paid off. That would bode well for the Flyers position.

Most of us virtue signalers don't support the death penalty. Rich kid preying on a handicapped girl hits a nerve for a lot of people. People, especially online, tend ot have an immediate emotional overreaction. That's why we have a legal system. I image there will be more to it than a slap on the wrist. Sounds like the wheelchair owner is considering legal action and I assume there's some sort of rules for behavior at the school/team. You'd like to think Briere would quickly own up to it, apologize and offer to make amends, though I guess when your dad is as wealthy his it changes things.

Oh, is that what happened?

Do you think for one second that was what he was doing? Searching for a handicapped girl, waiting for her to leave her chair so he could throw it down the stairs in some sort of vendetta against poor handicapped females?

Give me a break.

The rest I agree with.

Levy is not a better prospect at 21 than Hart (who was already in the NHL) was. If they acquire Hart, he is their No. 1 goalie for the foreseeable future.

Correct, they are a team making strides. Goaltending is clearly a weak point of the roster. Hart would be a huge upgrade for the next few seasons on that team
