OFFICIAL: Free Agency Opening Day(s) thread....

Jody Shelley, Philly, 3 years, 1.1m. Bit more sandpaper.

 

[anderwho2513]

Jody Shelley?! Why? Because he scored both of his career goals against us on the final weekend?

 

[pixburgher66]

holy snap, blob saying we're still in on hamhuis as well as martin. king shero is SERIOUS this year.

jody shelley to PHI 3 years 1.1mil. so, no carcillo then?

 

[evolver115]

i'd take martin at 4.5 for around 5 years. man, our D would be...wow

Hell YES!!! Martin/Orpik/Michalek/Letang

yes sir, may i please have another

 

[dash]

I'd like to say that I'm very impressed with Steve Yzerman today...Nice moves, StevieY

 

[anderwho2513]

Does Shelley kill penalties, does anyone know? I can't imagine Carcillo wanting that much more that they say go away, and the Flyers had like 3 wins all of last year without Powe in the lineup, 2 of which came against the Islanders! Powe would be cheaper than 1.1 Something's brewing. Gagne on his way out? Hartnell?

 

[pixburgher66]

i'm so happy with this right now. really, no matter how it falls out (hamhuis, martin, leopold or eaton for cheap) shero is playing this well. focused on D. i like it.

 

[evolver115]

Sounds like Hamhuis is VERY close to signing. I bet if Shero doesn't land him, Martin is his man. I like the latter more than the former

I see the Sabres are making another big splash. Darcy is probably trying to find Bob Corkum's number.

Or Donald Audette....

 

[pixburgher66]

something even better about michalek: HE IS RIGHT HANDED!

Or Richard Smehlik

Panaccio is an idiot when it comes to non-Flyer related things, but he's usually dead on with everything the Flyers are doing, and even he has no idea what's going on. There is no need for this signing, and no need for a trade unless Bernier is on his way to town.

Not while he was in San Jose. In fact he didn't do much but lose fights while he was a Shark. Good luck with him.

I have heard that he is a good locker room guy and his teammates like him. Kind of hard not to like a guy that gets the crap beat out of him for you.

 

[loki604]

Martin is a pen.

 

[evolver115]

WWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO


Paulie Martin

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[Dupster]

The Ellis deal is 2 years, 1.5m/per in TBay

 

[pixburgher66]

it's really great that in the year the pens need D badly, there's TONS of options.
