You know you need the shotblocking and spectatorial force that is Nick Grossmann.

You know damn well it doesn't take that much. All it takes is a puck to bounce over Coburn's skate, a puck to roll off of Giroux's blade, Hartnell to not get to a puck he has no chance of getting to, etc. to start the rampant demands for wholesale changes.

i respect grossman a lot. seems to be coming out on the wrong side of things this year a little more than most, but he usually is extremely steady and tough as nails.

No Grossmann is terrible. We need more offense. Defense is not important. Didn't you read Moneypuck!? It says defense is unimportant. We should play with 5 forwards and 1 defenseman. No goalie. Grossmann is useless in life and on this team

Well, Simmonds will be heading to Edmonton for some package of mid-round picks and failed prospects.

B. Schenn will be shipped to a team whose defenseman are not better than the Flyers; however, since they are not (as of yet) Flyers defenseman, Flyers fans will be saying how much better they are.

Hartnell will go to Washington for that Russian guy who will likely never come across the pond. 2Real will then quit hockeybuzz having nothing more to complain about, and Hartnell will score 40 goals on their top line. Flyers fans will complain that "he never played like that here."

Coburn will get moved to Anaheim for a first and a non-Gibson goalie prospect. He will win a Cup...Flyers fans will complain that "he never played like that here."

haha in life.

i do think on the flyers he may be a bit redundant, with him and luke schenn (and to a lesser extent coburn) all being fairly similar.

Defenseman are useless. If only Giroux would back check, we wouldn't need them.

You forgot trading Grossmann for a 2nd round pick. Then having the fans wonder why our defense allows so many goals in front of the net.

Grossmann and Akeson for Crosby? Actually, you guys might have to up that offer for Art Ross Akeson.

Going INTO the 3rd with a lead? this is weird... hopefully the team knows how to finish it off.
