Flyers will NOT send Stamkos an Offer Sheet, Exploring other Options

2nd Time using this Picture, stay quiet!

T Panotch just let the air out of the tires letting every eagerly, excited Flyers fan know that the Flyers are not going to send Steven Stamkos an offer sheet. The offer sheet was rumored to be for 12 years banking Stamkos $115,000,000. Holmgren told Tim that the Flyers would not be submitting an offer sheet, rather that they would make moves when free agency starts tomorrow at noon. Peter Luukko also backed up what Homer said saying that the Flyers will not

Stamkos's most obvious suitor, other than Tampa, looks to be the Toronto Maple Leafs who just two years ago went after Phil Kessel around this time of year.

The Flyers agenda going into free agency remains unknown, however there are thoughts that Erik Cole is one their radar. Cole won the cup in Carolina with Laviolette at the helm.

Another name is Mike Ryder of the champion Boston Bruins. Ryder is a good depth scorer who can play on the powerplay. He made $4,000,000 last season, a contract signed just one year removed from when the sniper notched 30 goals. This season Ryder tallied 18 goals and 41 points in 79 games.

The Flyers may look at an old face to fill a spot down the middle. Michal Handzus's name has been buzzing around lately. Handzus is a strong checking line center who has spent the last three seasons with the Kings.

Eklund just tweeted that the Flyers may be in on Jaromir Jagr, and with that we have the Free Agent Frenzy that is the reason for the season. Enjoy All!
