Larsson a RHD. Did we not want him as we are in need of someone who plays D and is righty?

If he did sign with Seattle, the flyers never even had a chance to sign him. Couldn’t negotiate until 7/28.

Unless they wanted to trade assets for his rights. But even that would be a problem because they still would have exposed him to Seattle with Provorov, Sanheim, and Ellis taking the protection slots.

Does anyone have any insight on Darryl Williams our new assistant coach?

Worked with AV in the past. That’s all I’ve read. Maybe he knows a PK is supposed to prevent goals against. That would be a helpful addition to the coaching staff!

Seravalli must have it in for ESPN. At this rate he'll break the whole Seattle roster before they release it tonight.

TOR - McCann
STL - Not Tarasenko/Schwartz, probably Dunn
MTL - Not Price, probably Fleury
PIT - Tanev
CAR - Not Hamilton
TB - Gourde, barring trades

In addition to the earlier ones of
EDM - Larsson
DAL - Oleksiak (less firm than the Larsson tweets though)
FLA - Dreidger

Lots of sandpaper so far.

LeBrun says SEA did not take/sign Landeskog as well.

Russo says SEA did not take Kahkonen. Not super relevant to the Flyers, but Soucy (LHD) was the other top choice in mocks.

So if the tweets are to be believed, and mocks had good insight SEA likely looking at:

Oleksiak, Larsson, Dunn, Soucy, and Bean was an almost unanimous decision from CAR in mocks. Running out of space fast for a Flyers d-man. Giordano was a common one from the Flames also.

Still hoping they take Ghost and Jvr. Fingers crossed.

Uh. Seravalli reporting SEA is taking Twarynski from the Flyers.

What?

That would totally suck. Maybe Seattle trying to get a pick to take a salary.
I mean, the optimal move would be to leak this info early and get teams nervous.
Curious to see how this plays out and if we'll see a flurry of trades now.

I'm sure they were. But looks like Fletcher called their bluff and let them pick.

Twarysnki is a really weird selection. A guy that might develop into a decent 4th liner? Not wanting to take on salary makes sense and was a potential outcome, but Twarynski is out of left field.

If it is Twarysnki, that leaves barely enough cap space to sign Sanheim, Hart and a 2G.

Dagnabbit!!!
Ninjered by @awaz!!!!

OMG they took Twarinski UGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
If this holds out and it's all we shed in cap space then this is another mismanaged cluster fuck by Fletcher. If he thought just signing Ellis was the cure then he needs to go ASAP! Maybe we can package JVR and our 1st for something. Twarynski should have never been dangled!

Cant blame Fletcher the guy to blame for this cluster fuck of a team is the GM in Pittsburgh.
