*Oh hey, Kurt & Travis did some BSH Radio last night. If you missed it, you may listen here. *Remember when Paul Holmgren gave Dan Cleary that ridiculous contract 1.5 days ago? Homer says nope, didn’t happen. But we know it did, despite the posturing. Travis looks at the pros and cons of the signing…
*This Dan Cleary saga is getting ridiculous. First, Elliotte Friedman tweeted that Cleary wasn’t reporting to camp. Then Homer pretended he had no idea what anyone was talking about and said Cleary would be in Philadelphia for his PTO. Either way, we’ll find out soon because… *…camp starts today! Check out the full roster as…
Well, then. Dan Cleary might not be a Flyer after all. This will open up a lot of jokes about the “Flyers not knowing how to read that three-year deal they offered Dan Cleary,” but it appears as though the forward won’t be coming to town after all, at least according to Elliotte Friedman of…
Update (12 p.m. ET): Dan Cleary has signed with the Red Wings for one year and $1.75 million. The Flyers signed him to a PTO and seemingly had a handshake agreement on a three-year deal, but Cleary seemed pretty keen on the chance to re-sign in the city he’s spent the last eight years of…

Translation via simongagne.com: “All summer, the Philadelphia Flyers kept hinting that they wanted to offer me a new contract…
*Finally, our long (re: two days) Dan Cleary-related nightmare is over; he’s a Redwing. Why he didn’t just take their first offer ages ago we’ll never know. *And even though we avoided overpaying Cleary for three years, we still don’t get Simon Gagne. Which seems cruel. Reports are Gagne may end up with Danny Briere…
As we mentioned the other day, the Flyers have erected a six-foot-tall sand sculpture outside of the Wells Fargo Center as part of their hype machine for the opening of training camp. It was supposed to look like Claude Giroux, but instead it looks like your overweight grandma, sittin’ in her TV chair, watchin’ her…
