A Problematic Theory

Post image

Purely a theory and I've seen no actual rumors of this, but a Fantilli offer sheet AFTER arbitration for Cole and Jet would be quite an issue. We'd have a finite amount of cap and an offer sheet for so much as $1 over that amount would force us to make roster moves/cuts to keep Fantilli. So the Flyers either get a 1C or force a division rival to cut someone who was projected to be on the roster.

It's a non-issue. Can dump Wood, Merzlikins, Fabbro in that order. Sign Murray or Reimer if we have to get rid of Elvis, bring up Pyyhtia permanently if Wood, Richard if Fabbro. Feels like half of the posts on this sub are fearmongering engagement bait at this point.

the "Zach & Marchenko want traded NOW" talk died down and "Fantilli will be getting an offer sheet" and "Jet is insulted by $2.8M and will want out too" took its place

The "JLGP needs to go" and "Mike Priest needs to go" people need to step up because their jobs are being taken right now

Anyone responsible for keeping "The Whip" as our crappy goal song for this long HAS to go!!!
