Then we dig into the Flyers salary cap for the season. We look at who will make up the official opening roster to get under the cap, how they will handle LTIR, goaltending choices and how that gets younger guys opportunities.

That is a superstar in dead cap again. Any chance we pull a proper move? Or a Lecaviah move.
When was the last time anyone heard a word from Ellis?
If Martone and Luch do not make the team fans will flipp shit.
Truly excited to see Owen Misset shoot high and wide three times per game again this season! “Sniper” 😂
I want to see the Flyers make effective use of their #4 waiver position at the start of the year. There were some good players who went through waivers last year (Fabbro, Kakko) and The Flyers are in no position to pass on any quality NHLers at this point of the rebuild. And I still hold a grudge against Danny for not just keeping Atkinson last year as that buyout is costing us close to $2M this year for absolutely no reason!
I really think Owen Tippet will have a bounce back season he’s my favorite player and I hope he works out I don’t wanna see him go.
Still think there's another move coming. The pipe line is still clogged. My guess brink and Zumula get moved. Side note Andrea is 9 or 10 on the depth chart. They will give grans a chance well before Andrea.
Why won’t they just put Ellis on Ltir?
Watch them give up on both Russian goalies and they pull a Bobrovsky or Stolarz in 2 years..a solid and more aggressive D will immediately improve the goaltending..always has.
….and how can there be no compensation for the Ryan Ellis debacle?? How does that even happen?? Absolute BS!
Rachel !! What is up with the sunburn girl. Looks like the sunglasses protected your eyes but more sun block please. 😮😮❤❤🎉🎉 I love this channel you and Russ do a great show on the nhl and my team the flyers. So informative. Keep up the great work 😊😊❤❤
I'd rather they didn't, but I think they will keep 3 goalies again. It really limits the rest of the roster. And something tells me that Toch will keep 8 defensemen, rotating players within the 3rd & 4th pairs. They didn't add the 2 jouneymen, Gilbert & Juulsen, not to play them. And both played for Toch before. That leaves only 12 forward spots. If Foerstar is not ready, probably Bump makes it temporarily. Fans would hope for Luchenko or Martone but sorry, not this year. Somebody goes down, Seeler can play wing for a couple games. Or Grebenkin gets a short look call-up
Not that I’m expecting him to be the same player, but does Nesbitt compare at all to Tage Thompson? Big center taken in the middle of the first round… any comparables? Not sure how he was thought of back in the 2016 draft.
I was at the premier member Q&A with John Snowden tonight I got to ask the question is he and tochett gonna run the same system and they are so that is great news the bummer is I submitted that question yesterday and he already had answered it in his introductory press conference this morning but he went into way more detail about it at the Q&A it sounds very promising for our future prospects
