What I was thinking last night.... before the Hayes deal was announced. If I'm Fletcher, I'm saying to Hayes' agent - $5.5MM / 5 years. Deal comes off the table on June 23, 12:01AM, because I will be putting offer sheet into Point for $9MM/7 years.
And you're okay with losing all of those draft picks

The Flyers were knowingly going to be very aggressive this offseason. Let's let everything play out before everybody starts jumping off Bridges

A second round and third round in the Gudas deal... plus the 5th round for Hayes ? I am ok with that. I might be missing something though regarding how many draft picks have been dealt away.

You're missing the point, I want to compete for the cup this year and next and next. The draft doesn't help us there this year either.
How do you know we're not going to improve at the draft either via trade

??? G's comments. Dude get over yourself. I have no memory of having anybdebate of the source with you.
Stay on topic you mentioned trouba. We signed a forward not a defenseman. It's apples and oranges bud


Duchenne would of been a better pickup
Simmonds would of been a better pickup, probably at a cheaper price
Drop a pencil on the UFA list, probably a better pickup

Do you think Hayes wasn't over rated.
Listen I'm not thrilled with this contract either. If this is the market what can we do. He's not a bad player that's what that's on forward you can play defensively which is a key for this team and he has size and has size and Grit. All I'm saying is let's let the rest of the offseason play out and see where we're at once we start playing in October

Duchesne would have been 10 plus a year. You're out to lunch if you think Simmons has anything left in the tank especially for a playoff run

Well if Hayes reads social media he's gonna hate coming to Philly, all the twitter feed is nothing but negative about him and this signing, wonder why?

But if your going to overpay, why not go big or go home....

Hayes does have size but does NOT have grit. He is a soft player. Ive watched him for years in NY he is not a gritty player whatsoever.
