They NEVER said rehab, it was just a conclusion I made, based on the inferences, tone of voice, and Kane's history.

And based on what I heard, too, I found your conclusion to be sound. You never came off as saying it was fact, it was just your opinion.

Ah, my bad. I hadn't re-read the thread since this morning, so I got it mixed up. It does kind of sound like Bernsie may be ateempting to make something out of nothing, but then again, that's what a sports radio host's job is to do.

Kane's history of what?

 

Googled that too, found pictures of a 21 year old kid drunk a few times.

Hawks have a brutal 9 game road trip to start the 2nd half of the season.

Maybe it was dance rehab???

That f***ing blows.

Flyers to trade Jeff Carter to Columbus.

 

Not sure if they have cap trouble or what, but that's interesting. They had just signed him to an 11-year deal, and that's a 25-year old kid that can score 30-40 goals no problem.

The only evidence of Kaner drinking has been fairly light (ok, he may have skipped on a cabbie bill, but he was 19). He's a young kid with oodles of cash who can bang any chick he pleases, and he goes to bars. It hasn't effected him on the ice yet, and these rumors are all unsubstantiated.

I'm not saying he's in rehab, but some games, it sure looks like something's going on, so you don't know that for sure. And the rumor of missed practices? Well of course that's never going to be confirmed, no one would back that. Doesn't mean it didn't happen, who knows.

Flyers trade Jeff Carter to CBJ, Mike Richards to LA, and likely Versteeg to FLA. How big of a contract do they think they need to give Brzygalov?

Jeff Carter is a massive pickup for the BJs. Richards to LA is cool. Versteeg is going to play for every team.

Wow. So I guess they would prefer to lose games 2-1, as opposed to win 5-4? Rumors are that Bryzgalov may get up to $7 million a year. I wouldn't be happy if I were a Flyers fan.

9 years, $51 million for Brzygalov in Philly. Who saw that one coming?

They are ditching Carter and Richards? Are they expecting Danny Briere to score 60 goals next year?

Lord knows they needed a goalie, but f***ing hell.

 

Ugh, I remember a few years ago when Bryzgalov was available for a cheap trade. I wanted the Hawks to nab him so bad.

Owner told management he wanted Bryz at any cost.

 

And there's your result. He basically pulled a McDonough.

I can't believe Philly unloaded like that. They got younger up front and better in goal, but jesus, that leaves them with no depth.

 

LA is going to be scary next year with Penner, Kopitar, and Richards.

Trading Richards is stupid.

Richards + Dustin Brown on a line would be pretty brutal for opposing teams.

Penner's really not that good, he's living off that big year in Anaheim, and that other year in Edmonton.

Two years in a row the Hawks get screwed by scheduling. 17 back-to-backs and 2 long road trips.

Trading Richards is stupid.

 

I thought trading Carter just to get Bryzgalov was nuts. Richards as well? The owner there basically fixed one problem by creating two more. Very, very strange. Bryzgalov will have more pressure on him than any Flyer since Eric Lindros IMO. Any sign of struggle for the Flyers next year, and he's going to take the blame since he's the guy that basically caused Carter and Richards to leave.

WOW Flyers did what? I know the Flyers realized they need a better goalie to win the Stanley Cup but I dont think its Bryzgalov and for 9 years.

 

P.S. This is what adds excitement to hockey, teams are not afraid to make trades especially during the trading deadline.

This move from the Flyers, I should also point out, was a Tim Thomas overreaction IMO. Was the goaltending for the 3 Stanley Cup Champions before the Bruins this year really that great? You need good goaltending to win a Cup, but not great. Luongo was a whack job all postseason, and the Canucks lost the Cup by 1 game! And to overpay for a goalie who isn't even great is insanity by the Flyers.

Actually I thin even Thomas proved you dont need a franchise Goalie, he was demoted not too long ago. Terrible moves by the flyers.

The are rumors that Philly are going after Brad Richards. The Bruins are also rumored in on Richards, using the Savard money.
