Flyers try and screw with the Canucks yet again!

As if I needed another reason to hate the Philadelphia Flyers, word comes out that they've signed up Canucks centerman Ryan Kesler to a 1-year $1.9mil offer sheet.

Yep, it wasn't enough that they signed RJ Umberger after raping the Canucks to get him for next-to-nothing, but now they have to screw around with one of our RFA's and put the Canucks in a bind. As if the Flyers aren't already screwed with enough contracts, they have to go out of their way to do something punk-ass like this.

From TSN:

The Philadelphia Flyers have signed Vancouver Canucks restricted free agent forward Ryan Kesler to an offer sheet. Sources tell TSN the deal is worth $1.9 million for one season.

The Vancouver Canucks have seven days to match this offer, but if they choose to walk away for financial


The Canucks are already close to the cap, so this puts them in a real bind. There's no way they can just walk away and come out with just a 2nd round pick for a guy like Kesler. They'll need to match the offer, but then do some more roster work.

Stupid Flyers. I can't wait until you choke in the first round after watching Derian Hatcher screw up for the 1,000,000th time. Stupid-asses. Enjoy overpaying Petr Nedved to sulk around like a stiff.

Totally outrageous. I think we can safely say that terrorism now extends its reach into the NHL, making Bobby Clarke the first hockey terrorist.
