Matt Walker's right and a game-used puck signed by Lasse Kukkonen?

If you toss in a game used pair of gloves from Jay Rosehill, I think you have a deal.

That's a bit much, think we could make those gloves conditional?

Ryan Suter is probably the favorite to win the Norris Trophy. Imagine that. How is it possible? Shea Weber carried him all those years in Nashville. First year as a # 1 d-man on a team, and he's a Norris Finalist.

Those Carle/Suter debates sure were laughable. Anyone who thinks Carle is in the same stratosphere as Suter is a super clown of the highest order.

That's your mistake. I commented on Donellon specifically.

absence of specifics on names of general sports columnists from a stickler for facts can lead to that. no prob.

Bill,

Do you think RFA Voynov would be a good fit with the Flyers and if a trade with the Kings might be feasible ?

The kid looks great already and he is only 23 years of age. I would think trading for Voynov will cost the Flyers less than going after Shattenkirk.

- Chris48

Thank you for realizing voynov. I said months ago he'd be perfect young guy to add to this core and of course the geniuses on here laughed at me. I said in 2 years voynov is going to be a beast.

LOL. Why would I need to name specifics on names? My original comment was specifically about Sam Donellon. You brought other columnists into the conversation in your replies to me. That onus is on you. Not me.

How'd I know you'd respond? Guilty conscience? Someone agreed with me, and bill too. Wow come around fly and see the light. Philly got a young goalie with some experience with high upside( part of my plan if you recall) now buyout bryz and Briere for cap room and get a young puck mover and top line true scoring winger to grow with the team. Trade coots picks and use cap space as needed. My originaL plan back 4 months ago when I said this wasn't making playoffs and not close to a cup. Some people are coming around time for fly to join the dark side. Lol

There isn't a single poster on this site who disagreed that Voynov would be a nice player to add to the team.

Sure I can! But why do I need to in discussing Sam Donellon as a columnist? And I named a columnist I like previously in Kevin Allen. You then added the parameter of a General sports columnist after the fact.

What would you give up for him in a trade ? I said I'd do read and a 2nd maybe a 3rd also if needed. Got laughed at saying that's way too much. I like to try and project younger players. I said to get younger players with upside generally you have to overpay or give up established players. Just like my trade coots for subban everyday post. I get laughed at for that too but. Your thoughts?

Are you sure they didn't laugh at you b/c you said he was only worth a couple of draft picks?

My thoughts are to wait and see how the draft goes... wait and see how FA goes... wait and see how Meszy and Coburn do... and then go from there..

We could very well end up landing a guy like Pulock and wouldnt even need to go out and trade for Voynov.
