2018 Flyers: They'll Still Suck

[Geowhizzer]

James Van Reimsdyk apparently coming back to the Flyers:  5 years / $35 million

[ice grillin you]

worst contract ever?

[Rome]

Yes.  A mid-level deal for a perennial 30 goal scorer is the worst ever.  Nighty night sugarbritches. 

[ice grillin you]

hes scored 30 goals twice in nine years and had 11 less pts than shane gostisbehere last season and is horrible defensively but now gets 7 mil a year?

hard pass

[Rome]

Thankfully you don't run the Flyers or the Esgles for that matter.  Or anything more complicated than daiquiri blender.

If this were say a 3 year $15 million deal I wouldn't have a problem with it...but 5 years at $7 million per is ludicrous. No idea how Hextall struck out so bad with Tavares

Maybe the fact the Tavares was going back to his home town to the team he grew up idolizing had something to do with it.

Also - 3/15 was not getting it done.   And $2M/yr is really a dealbreaker for you?   K.

[SD]

$2 million is a lot of money in hockey terms and you conveniently left out 3 years in your argument. I really don't see how JVR gets the Flyers closer to a cup unless they're moving Simmonds for a stud Dman.
