That's not true. Quitter refused all contact with the Flyers. He left LeClair and Sharp standing at the altar at BC, and refused to meet with Jones and Briere at the world championships. Quitter's camp made it clear to the Flyers that Quitter was not going to sign with the team and worked with Briere on trade destinations. This is well known fact by now. The Flyers didn't have to trade Quitter, but word was already getting out that Quitter did not want to sign with the Flyers and thus other teams would have just waited for Quitter to finish college or offer the Flyers pennies on the dollar in trades. Briere did the best thing he could do and try to get a good young player back in a trade. It was not an ideal situation for the Flyers.

He was not under contract with the team , and doesn't have to meet up with anyone if he didn't want to. If he did defer all contact to his agent, and they ignored this and continued to try to talk directly to the player, then the Flyers were being pretty ignorant. He owed them nothing, and the more they ignored his wishes, the more the situation probably intensified. Them travelling to Europe, when they were told to go through the agent sounds like a Briere and Jones issue to me. What where they expecting to change by doing that? Other than throw it on the pile to fool the brainwashed fans out there to think this was all brought on by Gauthier.
He did want to sign with the Flyers...you have been told this repeatedly. Briere was the one who didn't want to sign Gauthier in the March. After he saw Gauthiers performance at the Worlds playing with NHLers and scoring like 8 goals, he tried to sign him. The damage was already done.

This whole situation was caused by Flyers management....every team burns the first year of the ELC for it's top prospects....Briere didn't want to.

Briere tried to cover up his miscalculations with lies, and then traded the player for pennies on the dollar.

Great work Danny. You are so wrong about the whole situation JD. Your ignorance is unbelievable.

Is Johansen's "injury" behind him for him to be declared healhy for camp? If not, why are the Flyers not crying foul with the league
- Bayareaflyer

Wouldn't he need Dr's to provide proof of the injury? I can't see how he can just say I am injured, and that be that.

I didn’t feel like searching back to respond to his original post.

Looks like a landslide. 👍

There are two ways a man learns that he has made a huge mistake. By reasoning, or by bitter, learned experience. In hockey; consequence follows a big mistake fairly quickly so cause and effect is pretty clear. In public life, the consequence is delayed and much more diffuse.

In 2016, the Conservative party lied about how the money they could save by not giving it to the EU would fund the NHS ( 350 million pounds a week! said the banners on the buses). They promised to stop the immigration from Europe that was a consequence of being in the EU. They made racist arguments, and counties that had the least immigrants voted most strongly to ban immigration.

Problem is, the money was always a lie. The NHS today is on the verge of collapse from a lack of monetary and human resources. People come to hospitals and have to wait on the lawns outside for hours before they even get to an intake nurse. Sometimes "urgent" appointments take months to schedule. Junior doctors are on a long strike because of understaffing. Many of the nurses and doctors that would come from Romania, Poland, other eastern european countries can no longer do so to relieve the pressure.

And for a rare occasion, cause and effect was clear. The public was pissed. And the conservatives have suffered their worst defeat (lowest number of seats ever in their almost 200 year old history).

No you dumb dipschitt. I made fun of you because you took a vacation and didn't go anywhere. you stayed home. Its public record if you will.

now all of a sudden you where "working" on your house.

As far as retirement, you will be working until the day you die. No retirement in sight for you. .
- hello it's me 2050

Just one question and maybe some of you can help. If I take a week off work and go somewhere, how exactly would I work on my house?

I mean, the guy posting these comments and making these statements, you’d think he actually knew me in person like a neighbor.

These are pretty big assumptions from a guy who lives two states away that I’ve never met. Anyway of backing any of this up? It doesn’t matter anyway, you’re free to make up whatever fantasies you have of me to put your insecurities to rest.

Funny posting this as you will most likely vote for people in this country who ruined our health system and are hell bent on it’s destruction.

Such complete and utter bullshlt. Why do you continue to do this?

This is a fact. Quitter wanted to leave college after 1 season and join the Flyers. He then decided after Fletcher got fired that he no longer wanted to play for the Flyers and refused to sign an ELC with the Flyers in May, I think because the Flyers told him he had to earn a spot on the NHL team. So he decided instead to go back for a 2nd year while the Flyers worked to trade his rights once they saw he was serious and would not speak to them.

He was not under contract with the team , and doesn't have to meet up with anyone if he didn't want to. If he did defer all contact to his agent, and they ignored this and continued to try to talk directly to the player, then the Flyers were being pretty ignorant.

The only ignorance here is coming from you. You have no idea what you are talking about which is par for the course for you. You just hate the Flyers and their management, so you come on here ergularly to stick it to them, I'm embarrassed for you.
