Homer is absolutely an NHL terrorist !Love how this cat works it year in and year out ! Gotta admire how he steps to the plate and looks to go deep with each swing of the bat !!!!!!!!
You have got to give Snyder and Holmgren a lot of credit here regardless of outcome. When they see a need, they do whatever they can to try to address it.
Absolutely agree !Lot of folks blame them for not winning the cup etc,,,,,But they have just been unlucky quite a few times over the Years,,,,They damn sure try their best to keep our club in the GAME !
I would give Nashville Mez in a side deal for future considerations if it meant Nashville not matching.
I don't think they'll match. I think that between all the up front money and the comments Weber's agent keeps making about him not wanting to be in Nashville anymore, they will let him walk. I do think another trade between Nashville and Philly will take place.
If you're honestly denying that the flyers are one of the top dogs in the NHL, then you sir, are delusional beyond repair.
Being a top dog has nothing to do with championships. The Flyers essentially have as much as an open checkbook and a well of money as any other team in the league, an owner that is willing to dish out whatever it takes and how ever much it costs to make his team better.
Does this confirm Homer actually was serious about sheeting Stamkos last year?
I think he would've but apparently Stamkos was adamant about staying in Tampa. He could've given an Offer Sheet but if Stamkos didn't sign it we would've never heard about it.
the worst thing you can do is get into an argument with a montreal fan. I mean seriously worst comes to worst the common denominator of any argument is 24 cups and that is why you will always lose .
I was thinking that when I engaged....still how many cups have they won since they set themselves back with that Desjardins and LeClair deal..then the Gomez signing did take the cake. But I have to be honest I thought Gomez was a better fit in Philly than Briere..thankfully I was wrong!
I didn't watch sportscenter today, was there any mention of this at all? I know Jeremy Lin received about a week's worth of front page coverage on ESPN.com and top billing on sportscenter. This is currently not on ESPN.com's front page and I'm just trying to see if they are even talking about it.

Yep, sort of like how we never heard about the offer sheet for Carter that he turned down until after he was traded.

Linsanity.....cults die hard...like that of Penn State....
That LickTheEnvelope guy in the General section is getting hilariously annoying. He keeps droning on about how there's "no doubt" that Nashville has the finances to pay Weber while also reaching the cap floor. Bitter Canucks fans everywhere.

I didn't know Jeremy Lin was offersheeted until this thread.
I really dont see how it's possible for nashville to match, financially... However I also don't see how it's possible they don't match an offer sheet for Shea Weber...I also don't see how they could warrant paying a player more than they can actually afford when his agent has just essentially said that he doesn't want to play in Nashville

About a 20 second clip, then back to NFL coverage.
I haven't been listening to WIP all day, but I turned it on and they were still talking about Phillies sucking and Eagles coming up. I never listened to 97.3 but they have had Dreger on, SanFilippo and Weber's agent. I think I'll continue to listen to them even though I don't get great reception for them here.
