"IF Briere sticks to the philosophy of "not signing depth UFAs to more than 1-2 year deals" that he has so far. That is a big positive attribute for an @nhl GM. No-one is perfect. But so many GMs have screwed their team giving 3-5 year deals in UFA for depth guys. #Flyers #NHL"

"Now I think the @NHLFlyers can still turn things around and have a great future. Michkov and Martone should both be stars or close. Zavragin is a fantastic goalie. And have lot of young fwd depth. But they really have to hit on a 1C or 1D in the next couple of drafts. #Flyers"
