I heard something that theyre now trying to pry keith tkachuk out of st. louis. he has a broken knuckle or something now. What the hell is their salary level now? can they fit him in without dumping some people?
Primeau should count towards their numbers, but doesnt, correct?
Is any teams other than them and jersey trying any cap shenanigans? Of course it would be those two.

They can have Tkachuk. They'll never win the cup with their goaltending duo.

Flyers are better then the Penguins. You all wish we were as good.

The Kolten Flyers are better than the Pens. Philadelphia still won't win the cup this year.

So not only do you guys whine when there is a cap, but now how the cap system works. Primeau is done, why should his salary count vs the cap if he retires. Palfy's doesn't why should his?

Once again the big bad mean Flyers are getting special treatment. LOL! There is no end to the whining.

Yeah like mentioned who cares, Tkachuk is done anyways.

The point is Palffy DID retire. As far as the NHL and NHLPA are concerned his career is over. Primeau has not retired. If he retires then YES his slary should come off of the books. But until that time, it should stay on the books. Better hope you guys win it all this year, because I see salary cap trouble in the future, for your team.

The way I understand it is Primeau's salary is not counted towards the Cap if he's on the IR much like Elias's was not counted towards the Devils cap. If Primeau decides to sit out the year then the Flyers can trade for Tkachuk. It's wrong to penalize a team because players can't opr won't play.

with that defence, the orange wienies are going NO WHERE

Randy Jones?
Fred Meyer the fourth (what a jag-off, sounds like a friggin attorney, not a hockey player)
Hatch the pylon?

Im sure there are more cap running deals in the works though to tighten it up

Hope RJ Dumbereger enjoys all that dough playing fourth line (soon to be buried further when tay-chuck arrives). He could be double shifting here, but the fly boys showed him the money

They may not go far, but rest assured that they're going a lot farther than our Pens are.

What's the difference? Only one team wins the Cup, and that's the only team anyone remembers.
No one says, "oh boy, my XXXX's sure had a great run to the 2nd round of the playoffs last year!"
