He's hinting at Brent Burns.

I really hope you are right. I have never been this nervous about a dumb move like I am now.

Think about it with a clear head. Clowe for Couturier??? Laughable, even for April Fool's.

He would fill the hole left by Sami Kapanen, for sure.

It seems outlandish but sometimes I seriously worry about the Flyers decision making

Yes. If we didn't move Couts for Weber, I don't think SJ has a player we'd move him for.

I understand that Clowe might be addition via subtraction for them, but why would a team in a PO spot be willing to trade either Boyle (their ice time leader) or one of their only recently productive forwards (Burns) for a couple of undeveloped talents? Seems more like a pre-UFA move than a TDL move.

As an aside: I know Burns is playing forward, but is there a reason for that?

Was this done out of a San Jose need or because of Burns' play on the blueline?

Depending on the price, Bouwmeester would be a great addition.

He was drafted as a forward. They've also got too many dmen w/ Braun, Demers and Irwin stepping up. And Burns is a terrible defender. And Clowe can't score to save his life.

flyers don't have the assets other orgs do unless the overpayment is can-worthy for homer

unless the prices are much lower than we've seen so far, a move in this direction would be homer channeling his inner Clarke...scary thought.

Clowe is about as useful as Mike Knuble at this point.

I think a deal involving B. Schenn makes sense for both sides.

RE: Crosby.

Remember when JR came back from getting his jaw broke?

Pretty sure he had to play with a fishbowl on his head and he lost a bunch of weight.

- johndewar


One thing is for sure now...while he is on a liquid diet and eating through a straw we can totally say "Crosby Sucks!" and be 100% accurate.

By assets you mean C-level prospects and late 1st-rounders? #feaster
