Betts Added to Flyers Training Camp Roster

PhilaBright via Twitter reports that the Philadelphia Flyers have added former Ranger Blair Betts to their training camp roster.

...as if the Rangers power play wasn't bad enough they might have to face penalty killing expert Betts six times this year.

...while I love Betts I'm really hoping he doesn't make the Flyers team. Not re-signing Betts could really come back to bite the Blueshirts.

I just dont see why you are in love with this guy. His offensive game is non existent. His point totals over the last seasons are terrible. Big deal he is a good penalty killer. Thats not hard to replace. I would rather have players on the 4th line that have potential to score and thats what Torts wants. You guys need to let go of Betts he is gone and its for a reason. Rangers get rid of players because they didnt help the team.

The king, u obviously have no idea what your talking about..Betts is NOT easy to replace by any means..he is not out there to score and get points. he is out thete to kill penalties and he is the reason we were number ONE Pk. He will give anything to win and not alot of guys have that will.

What are you talking about he will give anything to win?? He cant score or give assists, all he can contribute is penalty killing. Thats a waste, its a lot easier to train a player to be good on the penalty kill than teach a foward to score and make plays. He is replacable. Good job buddy for defending your Betts lol. Your right the Rangers definately should have paid him to take a spot on the 4th JUST so he can kill our penalties which sometimes we only get a couple a game. Why wouldnt the Rangers want a younger 4th line center that can actually contribute offensively and not just defensively? You are a clown, get off Bett's stick. We are the best in the PK thanks to Lundqvist. He brings all he has when its PK time. You are the kind of fan that like all the crap players just because they have heart. Don't tell me you want the Rangers to sign Dubi to play 1st line with Gaborik? lol
