This team has such a logjam(karl hungus) of young forwards slotted for the 2nd and 3rd lines it's going to be really interesting to see who stays and who goes these next few seasons.

Simmonds
BSchenn
Read
Coots
Downie
McGinn
Laughton
Cousins
Raffl
Akeson

Read is the oldest @ 27. Good problem to have I guess.

I always hated those types of rumors. Do you know how many players have crossed paths and become friends throughout their hockey careers?

Apropos of nothing, check out this issue of Bob MacKenzie's "Insider Trading":

link: http://www.tsn.ca/videohu...collection=72&show=212933

2 interesting things:

1.) Claude Giroux needs to show more, given his impending raise in his contract extension. No question about it. But wait until you see/hear what guys like Toews, Kane, etc. are about to get when the cap goes up. Wowsers. Giroux's deal might seem like a bargain.

2.) Jeff Chychrun has a kid that is good at hockey. I officially feel old.

Before the "Bobby Ryan is from Cherry Hill" chatter, I always enjoyed "Bill Guerin's wife is from Moorestown/Mt. Laurel, he's totally coming to Philly" talk.

Just the worst. I still feel like part of the reason the Flyers traded for Luke Schenn was because they had Brayden. It makes no sense. It's not like they're the Sedins and can play on the same line.

I think there is a large contingent of Flyer fans who just assume Ryan will sign with the Flyers as a free agent in a couple years and give them a hometown discount.

His dad was a big dude, too.

I'd like to see the Flyers end up with Sami Kapanen's kid, speaking of Flyers off spring

Why is Nashville/NYR the nationally televised game tonight? Should have been LA/MON or CHI/DAL or Iginla returning to Calgary.

His dad played for the Flyers so we KNOW he will sign with us when he gets the chance. In fact, he may play for free.
