wow the flyers GM will listen. who cares as all about actions. Their actions show they have zero interest in moving certain players despite being a bad team.

They overvalue guys like Risto and Laughton. They set such a high price tag which indicates they have no interest in moving them.

Flyers are a horribly run organization.

When is the RYJO arbitration hearing. league is setting a bad precedent with all this collusion.

I don't think so either, so as usual Ek is making things up.

I have tried to stay patient with this management as they usher in this "new era of orange", but it looks to be the same color as the previous 10+ years.
Honestly for the life of me cannot figure out why we say "we're not competing for a cup yet" therefore no moves to be made is such a great position to take...
Philly fans aren't that stupid to come out and say we should be in the semifinals. But we sure as heck would like to see the roster get improved year over year towards that goal, even without this grand event they're waiting for...What ARE we waiting for? What is the defining event that says..."we're now going for it" ???

Dubas has one of the most difficult charters a GM could have. He has to try and make a contender out of an aging roster to salvage the last few years of his core. I didn't think it was possible, but he's doing it! Why aren't we looking for "glue players" that fill specific roles, but aren't superstars? Why didn't we pick up an older veteran goalie to stabilize the net after Hart left ? We are trying to make the crease work with 2 young players+ 1 with no NHL experience, Fedotov's age doesn't matter. This is the same mistake Hextall made with the D during his tenure. I thought we learned from his mistakes, but apparently not.
Ironically the best thing that has come out of this is that Kolosov proved he is worthy. He's not ready today, but there's a pretty good chance he's going to be a keeper in the future. Just don't know how long it is going to take. Which is why it would be nice if there was a veteran there to stabilize the other half of the games.

Overall, I'm sick of losing to the Penguins. Something like this should not go on this long, is unfair to the fans.

The Flyers banked on Fedotov. Paid him 3+M a year. Just another example of their poor decision making.

He was coming of a good career in Russia. They took a gamble. Hasn’t worked out. Though it is a
Short term contract that has no real effect for the future. Why do you have an issue with this move?

You say every day you want them to get a high pick yet you complain about this signing.

Were you against it when they announced the deal?

i remember some folks saying risto was immovable. i'm curious how folks will spin this if he does get traded.

We did these things. Glue guys signed, Feds is 27 and a national level goalie

You can say it hasn’t worked out, but the flyers did those two things

You should really take more pride in spelling a players name correctly. CanTalbot. Tablott. Tarasenko!. It’s in every post though.

Grammar police are the worst but spelling a players name correctly is like bare minimum.

I’ll believe the Risto trade when I see it.

Misspelling has been an intentional schtick forever here.
