and so, it ends. this flyers team was a good team. it had talent and scrap and edge. it also took dumb penalties and got in horrible streaks that it couldn’t pull out of fast enough. but enough about this season…let’s take a look ahead like all philadelphia sports losers like to do.
Unrestricted Free Agents
Jim Dowd
Riley Cote
Vaclav Prospal
Jason Smith
Rory Fitzpatrick
Jaroslav Modry
Other than Prospal, no big deal losing all of them…which we might have to do because
Restricted Free Agents
RJ Umberger
Jeff Carter
Patrick Thoresen
Stefan Ruzicka
Ryan Potulny
Randy Jones
Nate Guenin
well, in a perfect world, you’d like to keep all these guys. but i think carter and jones come first. umberger and thoresen have a lot of potential, but at some point, we’re going to run out of cap space. we pick up 4 million in space or so from the list above, another 2 for vinny and another 3.5 if mike rathje officially retires. that should go a long way to getting these guys signed. there are a lot of players out there on the market this summer, but i fully expect holmgren to tweak rather than tear down.
good season fellas. don’t go gambling with rick tocchet this summer.
