Philadelphia, PA:
With the Flyers off to a slow start to the Preseason new GM Michael Blair was seriously looking to make a few deals but unfortunately nothing came to him that said lets do it... However, with the recent play as of late the Flyers have won 3 straight and are playing well with Sean Burke in goal. GM Blair has decided to hold off on any deal making for the time being so he can better analyze his current roster and get some of these resigns done and see if they can get under the cap... When a reporter asked about the John Leclair contract situation GM Blair had this statement. "John was and still is my #1 priority right now... Unfortunately his agent has been busy as of late but we hope to hear back from him by this weekend with a counter offer or if he is going to sign our offer.." Regardless again our number 1 priority remains to be Mr. Leclair after that we will be sending in another offer for another player.
