And that's also without mentioning Patrick, JVR and a few others that have potential to produce a lot more... a new GM could very well enter next year with a contender. And as Moneyhands pointed out... they could do it with Q at the helm.
Pretty exciting for Flyers fans, and hilarious as Flames fans watching them put the wheels in motion well before the Oilers have seriously considered it. Anyone that they had pegged as a dream [insert any job that needs to be filled] could very well have moved their focus out east if they thought that a re-organizing team with a few valuable pieces was an enticing next step for their career.  |
They are never going to contend until they solve goaltending. It's been their Achilles for decades.
