And BTW, how many times have you insulted me today already? In the limited time I have spent on this forum today! You once again prove to everyone that you are incapable of a simple conversation without spewing insults. - jd250
All I've done is used your comments, both present and past to expose the nonsense that you post.

Maybe. But once I found out he had the same agent as Gauthier, I think that cleared up why the Flyers passed. I really think Luchenko has a good chance to develop into a good player within a couple of seasons. - jd250
You don't know that, how can you make that statement? LOL
I doubt it had anything to do with the pick but if it did, it's just another indictment towards showing the incompetence of this franchise

In 25-26 the Flyers will be spending at least $18,850,000 on four right handed right wingers. And that's before extending Foerster.
It's a very odd way for a team with Michkov to (re)build their roster. - Feanor
So 35-40 mil for the rw position once mm gets his extension in a few years. ššššš

I don't think he will be a 1D. I see him being very similar to York, a really solid top 4 defenseman. I don't see a Hedman or a Peitrangelo in this player. - jd250
He doesn't have to be a Hedman or a Pietrangelo to be a 1D. Your track record of player assessments is abysmal.

I don't think they're full bore going for the playoffs this year. Only because they really can't. As soon as they get the cap cleared up, they will though. For sure. - MJL
Come on manā¦ you know that cap is never getting cleared up |

It will get cleared up but that will be temporary. My point is once they get the cap space. They will spend it.

How do you know the Flyers didn't explore the market and decided there wasn't anything worth doing? Maybe they dangled TK to move up into the top 5 this draft and teams refused. You don't know anything to truly be able to make this response. And being patient means there is a good chance they head to the deadline and TK is a rental, which brings back a late 1st round pick and maybe a decent prospect. None of this moves the needle for the Flyers IMO. The Flyers need a 1C and 1D, and TK has not getting them that, either by a player to player swap or trading him for a high pick. - jd250
The most important thing is not the return (it was never gonna be earth moving) itās the cap flexibility and all that goes with it over the 8 years of deal. One hand washes the other. He never fit a real timeline. Itās as simple as that. They just are intent on setting up the next decade with mediocrity that they know they can turn a profit off of because yeah Philly fans are (frank)ing stupid and buy into the narrative every (frank)ing year. They deserve to be losers and suffer. (frank) philly |

Holy (frank)ā¦.I would hope the Flyers are more PROFESSIONAL then that. - landros 2
Well I meanā¦ this IS the team that put on a full court press of pr assault on a 19/20 year old kid trying to annihilate his character when trading him instead of being professional so I put nothing past these losers. (frank) philly |

If they get cap spaceā¦ they never will have any real cap space that can actually be used to do anything major. They already are locked up for the next almost decade assuming those younger guys get deals (trees York mm etc etc etc. ) I do agree it will get ācleared upā in a sense and like you said ātemporarily ā but they will have the money earmarked for extension and such.
Iām just here to troll this team now forever. (frank) em Iām out |

And since they are going for the playoffs this season, the Flyers will be picking most likely between 12-16 the highest, plus two picks most likely in the 20s. This IMO will not move the needle one bit. The Flyers have good players. They need elite players, and we already know 1. teams picking in the top 10 will not trade their picks so its a pipe dream to think they can trade up into the top 10 and 2. outside the top 5 its very, very difficult to get a potential elite player a team can develop. Its purgatory at best drafting like this. That is why I feel the Flyers will trade these picks and like you said, try to sign their way to the top. It rarely works. First you need to build a team through drafting high and developing, then you augment with free agents. Once again, another regime thinks they can circumvent the process. Like I said, I know how it ends. Two rounds, maybe three rounds at best, but no Cup and it eventually collapses under the weight of the cap. Unless DB and Jones know something I don't know, like there is more coming this off season. Right now I am not on board. - jd250

I was wrong I thought that Danny if he signed TK would give him 6 years max. 8 it is. Throw Danny in the pile of other poop GMās.
They need to be renamed to the Comcasters |

Any chance DB trades TK before his new contract kicks in? Ala Mike Richards and Jeff Carter.
I'd love to see that š
Nobody would sign with us if DB did that |

Who would take that contract. 8 years no way. Just a terrible extension. |

The projected cap for the 2026 season is $92M, and this TKās new AAV would be 9% of the cap and only get better after that. Not happy with the direction of the team, but as I stated, it could have been a lot worse. If the Flyers can somehow trade Couts I can live with it. A big IF. |

Iām speculating of course, but it would be a reason they passed on him. I agree itās never good for a team and agent to be at odds. The team usually loses in the end. |

If the plan was to build through the draft, I agree TK doesnāt fit the timeline. I donāt think that is the Flyers plan. |

Oh, so you can speculate and give an opinion but when I do it and give an opinion. It's "I don't know that so I can't give that opinion" You're not even aware of what you do or what you say from one minute to the next.
