21-22 Season - Jekyll or Hyde ?

[purdue81]

Question is does Holtby still think he is a starter?

Does he care ?

Does he care ?

Maybe, some don't take kindly to being washed up lol. Guess if it's just money to him then you'd have to question his effort.

Wow

Really a great point. Though was Yandle bought out maybe? So became a free agent early?

I guess I'm not totally opposed to the signing, especially at 900k. Veteran, good puck mover, could be a good PP2 guy. Blocks York/Zamula from being given the job, they'll have to earn it (or injuries).

Everyone said they'd sign another 6/7 veteran d-man, but Yandle is a bit better of a player than I expected tbh. Thought it would be easier for York in particular, to beat them out for a job. Yandle won't be a cake walk.

They look pretty darn strong on defense honestly..

Provorov-Ellis
Sanheim-Ristolainen
Yandle-Braun

With York, Zamula, and Morin as extras.

Wow love this! Maybe Braun gets the boot although he's pretty cheap. I guess York can be brought in slowly which is the better way to go. All of a sudden the D doesn't look too bad...

Also the flexibility Yandle brings should help match ups better. Braun should be able to handle 3rd and 4th line guys, would like to see York brought up to replace him though, pair him with Yandle to keep him steady. Yandle is by no means a serious game changer but he's def solid and could help with building the younger core.

Id like to try and add some scoring depth now.

Man would I love to pick up Brandon Saad. Dude is always in scoring position.

He was bought out.

Yandle means they don't HAVE to rely on Zamula or York. That means they can play in LHV and learn, the consensus was that York really needed a year in the A. Zamula, maybe not as much. Adding Yandle also gives another look on PP which can never hurt.
Having big Sam as the 7 D means that the Flyers can dress a series of different looks on the blueline depending on health and circumstances.

Would really like a goalie to back up Hart who can push him. While he is the future, he has to be on his game and improving and not backsliding.

Happy Frenzy day everyone!!

I think I saw on twitter last night that Coleman was looking at 6M x 5 years. If so, that's outrageous. I love his game, love his Cup rings, but 6x5 is nuts for a 30 point guy.

I think we get Holtby which I'm good with.

I agree That is way to much to pay for Coleman .
