Holmgren signs Richards, Carter, Pronger, and Bryzgalov to massive deals, but this is the Luongo Rule….

If anything its the screw Holmgren rule. The Flyers basically invented the idea of long back diving contracts and have given out more then any other team. Hell if they dont opt out in 8 years the Flyers will have no players on their team but have the highest salary.

Twice, no less.
