Well he wasn't going to get a chance to play with Bryz in front of him, but the Flyers definitely have a very small amount of patience for young defensemen and goalies. Also there's some rumors about the Flyers trying to move up in the draft, should be an interesting night.

Not worth the draft picks, they should have kept him. Bryz is an extremely streaky goaltender and isn't getting younger, having Bobrovsky in the wings was the best thing for the present and future for the Flyers. He's still 24, and it wasn't time to give up on him.

I've read that we're looking to use those picks with JVR to acquire Bobby Ryan.

A couple of 4th round picks and a 2nd isn't going to do all that much.

Especially not when coupled with JVR, who is incredibly streaky himself and coming off a sub-par season (although he was hurt a lot.)

[Ravin]

That is good for the Jackets. I always thought the Flyers gave up to quickly on Bobs.

Nothing wrong with this trade. Bluejs need a goalie and not those late picks.

I'm happy for Bob since he'll get the chance to develop and see how good he can be, no way he was getting that chance in Philly.
