I suspect that Patrik Berglund is the chip they'll try to use to get whatever help they need... he's on a 1-year show-me deal and he hasn't really shown too much.

Of course, he's not exactly what the Flyers need right now.

Berglund is another name they might try to move...I'd do him for Hartnell, clears the money off the cap & who knows maybe he clicks with somebody

So it's been a couple months. Whats the consensus on NHL 14? Still not sure if I'm going to get it. Only concerned about the GM mode really

best its ever been

Ek says St Louis Blues have interest in trading for Hartnell.

Hmmm that is a head scratcher.

How fast can you pack his bags?

I meant why would the Blues do it?

He'd have to convert to wing.

The Blues would need to trade back salary and I don't think there is any combination of players to make a trade work.

Like what Mason got, except instead of a pay-cut, Berglund actually got a bump up.

I'd wait for 15. They'll be giving it the total graphic and engine overhaul as it catches up with the other EA Sports games that already got it this year.

He's played a lot of LW for them.

how is he on shoot outs?

I hate to ask this but as long as it's a part of the game

Then sure, I like Berglund

He's 0% for his career, lol. He's a big two-way playmaking center, not really a barn-burner.

IMO they have really improved GM mode. Sims much faster.

Never sell low. That's all I'm saying.

Then get me a Blues jersey.

Sim speed is everything for me haha. Freaking 13 crawls along it used to be faster. I think I'll wait still. Thanks

I've never played it, but supposedly this game is a much more immersive GM simulator:

Men gm mode boring as dirt. Goals are lame. You can make the best play ever and goalie makes easy save. Computer backhands a shot from the red line and your goalie can't make the save.;

It makes no sense to me that St. Louis would want Hartnell when what they really need is a true #1 scoring center. If they're going to move a guy like Shattenkirk, I would think they try to package him with Roy to upgrade at center. I don't see where a power forward, on the downside of his career, locked into a long term deal fits their needs.

Maybe they can package Hartnell and Timonen to Colorado, lord knows they have the cap space.

No serious contending team is moving a top 4 defenseman midseason so Shattenkirk is going nowhere. I have heard the Flyers and Blues have been scouting each other all year but I cant think of any trade that makes sense for either team.

Perhaps one of the young centers is of interest to the Blues? There's a definite need on the Flyers' side of things, but they're unlikely to get the defenseman they need from the Blues.
