I believe there are viable options for a puck moving d-man in the organization already. If you may recall, when Carle was traded from TB, he was pretty much playing like monkey crap. I do recall a lot of griping when Homer traded a 2nd round draft pick right before free agency for Meszy, that turned out pretty well. I still believe there are higher ceilings for both MAB and Manning in particular to be reached. Both have good size and a physical edge. I'm not including Gus because I don't think his upside is as high as the other two.

I think Homer will continue to upgrade the roster if possible. Obviously, he has more medical updates on Kimmo and Meszy then all of us. I'm not concerned about Grossmann. I don't buy he has chronic knee problems after let's just say a questionable hit led to his latest knee sprain (and yes I do know he does wear a knee brace on the other).

I believe he identified the core he wants to build around, but this past offseason he isn't opposed to try and improve the roster if he can uses pieces outside of the core. I can't wait till training camp.

do you mean physically weak or what?

Too much of a drop off from 2nd and 3rd lines. Not enough scoring, not strong enough defensively.

I can't believe they would move Meszy in a deal without getting a d-man in return. If that deal is anywhere closed to being proposed, I would have to believe Sbisa or Fowler is coming back. No way your moving basically two first round picks and two roster players for Bobby Ryan, just don't see it happening.

If they move Mez they better have another defenseman coming back.

aside from size, what's the difference between feds-holmstrom-wellwood and gionta-carter-bernier?

there has to be a serious jump in merchandise sales when the Flyers make a move because that is about as lateral and nonsensical of a move i can think of them doing right now.

I think they'd be willing to include Gus/MAB but not Meszy. They'd be short on the back-end.

really like what? that he guessed the preds would match that offer sheet? puh-lease that was a 50/50 call all the way. In fact I'd bet his method of selecting that prediction was a coin toss. Must've been watching the Dark Knight before he went to the theaters to watch the new Batman movie.
