Flyers deals
| The Flyers announced today that wingers Simon Gagne and Branko Radivojevic accepted the team’s qualifying offers. Per club policy, terms of the deals were not disclosed. (A standard qualifying offer is a one-year deal for 110% of the player’s salary from the previous year.)
I answer this with a whopping, “Eh?!” Gagne is supposed to be one of the Flyers bright young stars, yet has had only one season of genuine, good play. Radivojevic was a throw in as part of the Mike Comrie swindle that left the Flyers with octogenarian Sean Burke. |

post a commentI don't have a problem with either signing. Gagne is a decent player who has flashes of brilliance (although it is usually in two games out of eighty-two), and Branko is a good defensive forward. The Knuble signing was a nice one, but Turner Stevenson doesn't excite me one bit. As long as the Flyers put LeClair, Amonte, and tools like Desjardins (I know, it won't happen) out to pasture, I am happy.
BTW, EXCELLENT quote today! Whatever happened to Steven Seagal, anyway?
