i dont kno why ppl are falling off the Rinaldo bandwagon already.

Sure he hasnt done anything this year but he clearly said he hates playing in the AHL now.

Sure its selfish of him but its refreshing to see an athlete speak honestly.

Last year was one of the most exciting years in terms of flyers hockey and most of it was because of him, post lockout.

Mathers gets like 15 points per season in the O. I just don't realistically see him on the big club. I'd stop having so much hope. I know it might seem like I hate him, but I actually like him. He's a nice guy, easy to talk to was never cocky about the fact hes on the ****tiest OHL team, but I just don't think he has the skills to play.

Against certain teams I'd certainly take that lineup as well. Against the NYR or B's having both Shelley and Sestito in the lineup would be awesome.

Sestito is boss and should be an every game player. The issue is he is just getting over a case of the mumps where he lost a lot of muscle.

In the long run, if he learns how to maintain his composure, he can be a legit top 9 forward who can take on HWs.

Shelley has earned the right to stay with the big club and dress in games vs BOS, BUF and Rags

Now he just needs to get over being an idiot with penalities. There is enforcing than there is being a dip****.

Sestito can be more than an enforcer if he pulls in the reins a bit. He's a solid skater and checker. He could definitely be a regular checking line winger if he stays out of penalty trouble. Throw some hard, clean hits; be defensively responsible; understand you don't have to fight every opportunity you get. Good to hear he got over the mumps. Hoping he's back to full strength soon and looking forward to seeing what he does this year.

Janssen and leblond would be some of the guys id go for. Because i know they can actually play and would see plenty of ice time.

Ryan Clowe needs to be in a Flyers jersey, he reminds me of Tocchet. Can play the game and fight. Would be nice to see a new heavy added next year also.

Ryane Clowe is one of the players (along with Chris Neil and Chris Stewart) that would make me jizz my pants if the Flyers acquired them.

If Orr proves himself capable and shows his form he had as a Ranger player wise I'd love to get him.

Clowe's good too.

Bam Bam would thrive in Philly. He's a Flyer at heart.

Haha. Couldn't agree more.

Erskine is another guy I've always wanted the Flyers to pick up. Seems like he's just wasting away in Washington.
