Tampa's down to $6.87m in cap space. Gotta be a trade coming.

I am just impressed they managed to give out a contract without a NTC/NMC. Of the non - ELC players that have signed, only 3 don't have one.

Yeah well don't forget who taught Yzerman everything he knows about GM'ing.

Dreger was saying on the radio yesterday he anticipates the cap being under $83 million. More likely $82 or $82.5.

Vegas, we're all looking in your direction.

God damn does Skinner look like a genius for putting his signature down already right about now.

Cap space doesn't mean much when the next lockout happens in about (checks calendar)15 months.

It's not funny because it's true.

Man, that is one hell of a declining asset to give up a 2nd any kind of assets for.

I would hope TJ Brodie could fetch more than Justin Braun (i.e. this trade setting for market for similar types of trades).

Especially after what the rags gave up for Trouba. Not sure I get this from the Flyers perspective.

Maybe it's Comcast being impatient and saying "We need to be back in the playoffs next season". Not sure how much Justin Braun will help that cause.

Who knows. Brodie's of higher skill and younger (but also pricier). Tough to make a direct comparison.

Can't say I'm hating the RD's being traded/signed with Zaitsev still dangling here. Gonna be looking very shiny to Ken Holland soon

Nobody and I mean nobody took a hit to make a play more he Braun. Nobody

True. He is good on the PK and the Flyers think this will help that void.
