Different guys. I\u2019m talking about the \u201cYo Cuz\u201d one.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This Martorano is many things, which makes him difficult to adequately describe. Trying to crystallize the man in a short bio is a tall task. But the headline is about Dan Vladar, and it appears Martorano may have been the first to report that the Flyers are extending their top goaltender, which has not been reported anywhere else yet. They re-signed Aleksei Kolosov on a one-year deal, and Vladar has one more year on his current contract, but none of the big insiders have reported a new deal, which brings us to this:<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"\/>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.crossingbroad.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/05\/cuz-tweet.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"569\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.crossingbroad.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/05\/cuz-tweet-569x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-262743\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.crossingbroad.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/05\/cuz-tweet-569x1024.jpeg 569w, https:\/\/www.crossingbroad.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/05\/cuz-tweet-167x300.jpeg 167w, https:\/\/www.crossingbroad.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/05\/cuz-tweet-768x1382.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.crossingbroad.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/05\/cuz-tweet-853x1536.jpeg 853w, https:\/\/www.crossingbroad.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/05\/cuz-tweet.jpeg 1079w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 569px) 100vw, 569px\"\/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">screenshot via  @RayMoffo on X<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Shortly after this Instagram post went up, it vanished \u2013 deleted from his page.\u00a0But I\u2019d bet the Flyers announce that they\u2019re re-signing Vladar any day now.\u00a0Of course Vladar is coming back. The Flyers aren\u2019t going to let him leave, and he doesn\u2019t seem to want to leave anyway. It wouldn\u2019t make sense.
