the kings just landed mike richards?!?

are you f'n kidding me? That was an awesome trade.

i know the flyers were up against the cap but i can't believe they let richards (and carter) go so cheap.

it's an awesome day for l.a. hockey fans.

you'd be surprised how many frostbacks get tired of the snow and move here.

People are still scratching their heads on the Richie trade. Carts put the writing on the wall himself with his disappearing act in the playoffs. I honestly think im the only person in all of Philly (besides the bartenders n broads he helped feel popular) tht liked Cartsy. It seems like during the playoffs tht i was heavily embroiled in about two arguments a day about him. People think tht getting rid of him is the answer---i say they're batshit crazy... The same people tht booed Mike Schmidtt, tough crowd..

i think you'll like schenn eventually. he's probably the best thing you got in the trade. he won't win you a cup in the next two years, but he's a great prospect. the kings development program right now is 60-70's era orioles or dodgers good.

I don't know, there's a better Richards on the market this offseason (Brad). Perhaps the Flyers will be targeting him? I know M. Richards was the captain and a leader and blah, blah, blah, but can the Flyers be a better team without him? Potentially.

Carter is by far, at least in my opinion, the more skilled player, though I think the Shenn kid has some serious potential.

i think there's a reasonable chance the kings also sign brad richards. we'll know after 7/1 but if they do...
