In addition to this currently-delayed Philadelphia trade with St. Louis, there is word the Flyers are also working on a Tony DeAngelo trade that would return him to Carolina. That one might also wait until tomorrow.

Adios Brett Pesce
The guy is a defensive liability, i assume heād have to be on the 3rd pairing with Chatfield
Do not want
If we give up anything other than āfuture considerationsā I will never forgive Waddell
This is going to trigger people… but good. People can change. And as long as he’s willing I hope we extend him an opportunity.
Ghost replacement maybe? But fuck I do not want this. Aho again exposed just how defensively bad TDA is. And at that salary? Philly better be retaining 50% and only expecting future considerations back
No
I have an idea. Donāt do that.
Fuck all that noise .
Not this again
Ghost is gone. We need a 6d. Hes shown he can succeed here. Just don’t give up a lot and this is an easy win
Yikes
Idk whatās worse Kevin Hayes rumors from earlier, or TDA coming back here
Ugh philly better be retaining 90% of that salary of his
What.
Dude had 51 points in 64 games here and weāre getting him for 2.5 mil? Sounds like a steal.
Seems like heāll QB PP2. Only 1 year left and hopefully they retain 50%. Not the move I wouldāve made, but I kinda get it as a stop gap on 3rd pairing
Am I here before the usual derailment of any post involving TDA?
WTF???!!!! WHY???!!!! We do NOT want him back here! In addition to his character issues, we already have more than enough defensemen, and Burns is still locked up for a few years and he has been playing really well (arguably better than TDA), and our biggest need is goal-scoring forwards, WHY on EARTH would we bring him back? This makes ZERO sense to me.
WHAT!!!???
Gonna be unpopular on here but I’m fine with this, he helps our PP and was good when he was here
Didn’t have that on the offseason bingo card.
Please no
LOVE IT!! WELCOME HOME, TONY!!
I watched DeAngelo during his one season with us and I thought he was alright, but why would we want him back?
I guess we could use him as a water boy?
Dear god please no. I know he was good in the regular season but he totally lost his mind in the playoffs and was horrific in Philly. No no no
Hell yes
Why arenāt weāre resigning Ghost?
I guess the Flyers are shedding Cap or actively trying to tank for next season?
Great move.
I love his competitive spirit so I’m down for it. I felt like that was a big missing piece for us last year a competitive Rat. Tony is our Rat. My problem with Ghost was that I felt like he didn’t care. We won’t ever have that problem with Tony.
even at 50% reatained that’s $2.5M? I really liked the 3rd pair with Chatfield and Gostisbehere, and thought Ghost in particular just fit great and moved the puck well from a handedness POV. TDA had a pretty decent season with us in that one year before flaming out in the playoffs. Dont’ expect he’d be better than Ghost, but it’d be interesting to see how he does in the third pairing role.
IDK, not super excited, feel like there could be better options out there, but not sure who they are.
I think we should start a GoFundMe to pay Philly NOT to trade him back to us.
