JeremyCuddles Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 I'd claim him in a heartbeat if we can move the cap to make it work. BUT, that would give us a massive overload of LD. Ghost, Edler, Hughes, Schmidt, Benn and Juolevi. Maybe we can find homes for Rooster and Benn to make the claim work. But that seems like a longshot.

Canuck Surfer Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Ghost is a LHD who plays mostly right side. At a cap hit of $4.5 mill. We already have Schmiddy for that. >> Schmidt, who plays better on the left anyway, as most lefty's do. But plays either side better defensively. Ghost is a PMD who's primary value used to be running the power play. We already have Hughes for that. No need for Ghost be hairy on our team! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven’t watched the games but his minutes were steadily increasing over the last 10 games or so. So it’s an interesting move Edit: Just looked again. I guess that was more before he was scratched 5 or so games ago. Philly having a rough year You've been watching but haven't watched??? Which one is it.. Surprised to see Ghost on waiver wire.. toast of the nhl just 2 years ago.. I think he gets claimed.. All offense no defense.. JB better not overpay Quinn Hughes and sign him to a rediculous contract.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB better not overpay Quinn Hughes and sign him to a rediculous contract.. Watching the scores. I’m always checking ice times etc for my pools. Usually read into quite a bit. Bit of a typing goof there though. Ghost has had a hard time staying in the line-up the last season or so. Scratched in the playoffs I do believe. One thing to be bad in your own end but the offence hasn’t been stellar. I’m also not worried about 21 year old Quinn Hughes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't think I would see Nick Holden's name on the waiver wire among some of these other, expected names. Some here have said that you are responsible for the Flyers' collapse. What say you?

He’s just being honest. That’s leadership in my opinion. Is society so soft now that this is frowned upon? Do we have to sugarcoat things and play pretend?
