#Flyers have traded center Darroll Powe to Minnesota in exchange for Minnesota’s 3rd round draft pick in the 2013 NHL Entry Draft.

Are the Flyers clearing the decks for Brad Richards?

 

[SLY]

Its possible. Its also rumored that they are interested in Gagne and Ryder.

 

[pixburgher66]

I just can't imagine doing all of this on something that MAY not work out.

 

[pixburgher66]

I can see them going after Gagne. I seriously believe Richards goes to TB.

 

[PhillyPhaithful48]

Can we just replace him with Scottie Upshall?

 

[pixburgher66]

Powe's a free agent, right?

Thought so...just wondering if it would take money off the cap for them.

Why even bother trading both Mike Richards and Jeff Carter if you're just going to sign a more expensive Brad Richards?

Less than a mil

Don't see Philly or TB signing Richards. The whole reason Tampa traded Richards was because they were too top heavy, signing him and Stamkos would put them in the same situation. I don't see Philly handcuffing themselves with another monster contract. Leave that sort of stuff to the Rangers.

My thoughts exactly. I realllllly do not want him.

Brad Richards to Tampa

Stamkos to Philly



Hey, a guy can dream.

Well if they signed Richards and asked him to take #18, it might appease those who spent hard-earned money on certain Flyers apparel.

Kypreos is tweeting that Stamkos and Tampa are not close to a deal, maybe an offer sheet for Seen Stamkos?!?

This!!

Mike >>> Brad.

He's cheaper and younger too.

Lol I thought about the exact same thing.


I wonder what the ratio would be to people are are offended by that compared to people are happy their jersey still applies to the current team.

Why would they do that when they can make even more money on a Richards jersey with a different number?

That was like the Phillies with Lee/Halladay. Lee leaves and Doc takes his #34. Off by only a few letters.
