Schenn and Streit has the potential to be a disaster. Schenn likes to hit, and can get caught out of position when he tries to lay a hit. Coburn is the ideal partner for Streit, because he is responsible defensively and he's also the most mobile of the "defensive" defensemen, so he can recover more quickly than Schenn or Grossmann is Streit gets caught.

I'd go:

Timonen-Schenn
Streit-Coburn
Grossmann-Gustafsson

To me, that gives you the most logical pairs, gives a good puck mover on each, and a solid stay at home guy. It also gives at least one guy with good mobility on each pair.

Probably didn't want to ruffle feathers and is happy to stay with the Caps. Guys don;t sign that kind of deal unless they're very content in a place.

Take out paajarvi from their side and put coots on our side and you have something alittle more realistic.

Honestly, with no 1st rounders going from our side, that wouldn't be off to get someone like Pietrangelo. Of course, we could remove Laughton and/or Simmonds, put in someone like Read, and add a 1st rounder or 2, and it'd be pretty equal value.

Look, once and for all, the Flyers are not getting Pietrangelo. But they are getting Bobby Ryan!

I want Gagne to add to the current group, but if we ever add Gagne and Jagr, while subtract young talent like Simmonds, Laughton and Coburn, this is the end of me being a Flyers fan.

Rumor that the Flyers are very close to a Bobby Ryan deal with Ottawa is completely TRUE.
