Completely agree. Let both lindblom and jvr play out this year, suck, get another top 5 pick, and have the cap space next offseason. Hell they might have been able to get something at the deadline for both of them this year. But you're 100% right the front office doesn't care about anything except selling tickets right now. This offseason has been atrocious, the only thing fletcher did right was keep 5th overall.

Especially with JVR they should let it go to the trade deadline. He’s in a contract year. he might wind up playing well trying to get his next and last contract. I have a feeling he winds up being good on a better team and the flyers are just unloading him with picks to unload him. Lindbolm id have just let him play it out. It’s $3 mil and everything he’s gone with. If he had 2 or 3 more years left i could understand it. Frankly if there wasn’t LTIR to put Ellis on I’d have said buy him out. i have a feeling he might never play again and they have to do that whole song and dance like they did with pronger for years. 

Lol makes this funny is if the flyers didn’t piss away draft picks and cap space on deangelo and risto they could’ve afforded Johnny gaudreau. Just shows how poorly run the flyers are and how bad of a gm Fletcher is.

A small part of me thinks it would be hilarious if Gaudreau signs with NJ. Fletcher does all this literally for nothing and immediately gets fired.

No reason to have done any of this, getting gaudreau isn't making this team that much better. And you're right it is hilarious that if fletcher didn't make the idiot risto and deangelo trades we aren't trying to dump JvR. This guy Fing sucks

Worse GM- Fletcher or Klentak?

Hmmm that’s tough. Klentak not only didn’t field a competitive playoff major league team but did an awful job with draft and development. He had very high picks too. The Phillies never made the playoffs. 

fletcher keeps giving out bad contracts, trading away draft picks that could help in a rebuild and is about to set the flyers into a purgatory that’ll take 2-3 years just to get out of. but made the playoffs once.

I’d probably go fletcher cause i tend to think he’s going to leave them in a far worse disaster of an organization when he leaves than the Phillies

The league knows the Flyers are strapped for cap space, they know we need to Move JVR. I shutter to think how much this is going to cost to get done.

Honestly doesn’t send the message to the flyers about how horrific their organization is being run nothing will. Missing out on gaudreau because of the ineptitude of Chuck. Legit if he wasn’t stupid and deal all the licks he did for risto and deangelo and then paying them 10+ mil next year they easily get gaudreau. Too bad ownership is too stupid and can’t figure out fletcher is dumb. And they are dumb cause they can’t see past next season and see a rebuild is long term be more fruitful for the organization.

Yeah.  Hilarious 

I find it funny they had since December when they knew they were had to try and off load contracts to clear enough space to make a run at gaudreau if they wanted him. They managed to piss away picks and drop $5 mil on deangelo and then give risto a 5 year deal at $5.1 per year. This organization is so disorganized and clueless about where they are and what they should do. They are going to go into obscurity to the point where dans just have apathy 

 

Lol these Fing schmucks

 

They just re-signed Braun too to block the young defensive prospects. 
 

Complete garbage franchise.

 

Every move is somehow worse than the one before.  It’s actually impressive 

All you can do is laugh now. This has got to be one of the worst offseasons for any team in the city in the last 20 years.

I think what makes it worse is the flyers organization believes they are doing a good job

As clueless as Dave Scott and Comcast are, there is no way they see this and watch literally all of hockey media clowning this team and think that everything is fine. And if they do, they deserve to see an empty arena which they most likely will. 

LMFAO. So what was the purpose of buying out lindblom? To give a 31 year old goon a 4 year contract?

To admit they never even inquired is absolute lunacy
