"You Didn't Get the Memo?"

So long time Flyer d-man Chris Therein has been in Philly longer than any other current athelete. Think that would mean something right? Apperently not. Poor Chris was put on waivers this past Friday which means any team in the NHL can just call up the Flyers and claim him for nothing. Okay its cool they put him on waviers to make room for younger players, but they didn't bother calling him to tell him he was unprotected. He found out from the media.


Poor guy. He wasn't picked up by anyone which sucks, because now he is on a team that wants to use him as 7th D-man. I honestly would like to see him go the last few seasons have been pretty much a waste keeping him around. However wouldn't it be the right thing to do for Clarkie to call up Chris and inform him he might be moving to another city soon, instead of him hearing about it on 6 10 WIP? No class on the Flyers part. Guess Clarkie was either to busy throwing dars at a picture of 88, or kissing Ed Snider's ass.

I wish someone would have claimed him, and made a roster spot free. I guess he will have wear out his welcome with John Leclair.

Too make matters worse the Flyers just got their butts handed to them by their farm team the Phantoms. It is going to be a long season.
