nyet. Schenn and Schenn for Bogosian and Kane. Done and done.

I suggested the Schenns and a 3rd for Bogo and a 4th. One Jets fan liked it. I don't wanna trade Read

if Pinaccio is looking for some new agenda to push in his key organizational role, perhaps this is as good as any.

Both. It is a lot to give up. But he's got the talent to be a top pair guy, if not legitimate number one defenseman(not elite, but Bouwmeester/Phaneuf level)

Health would really worry me... not sure his hockey sense ever caught up w/ his raw tools, either. Dude was considered equal to Doughty at draft time, and better than Petro... safe to say he's going to fall well short of that, for various reasons.

well Mason Raymond's last year with the canucks he had 22 points and then left went to Toronto and got 45... Booth could be in the same vote if he stays healthy and is given the same offensive situation as raymond was he may excel..all i am saying with very little cao room he may have been worth the chance for the price...oh wait we have no cap room
- flyer186

Trust me... with my work hours I watch the Canucks even more than I watch the Flyers live. I was on here last season trolling for the Flyers to sign Mason Raymond and I'm telling you if Booth contributes at all with the leafs it will be a miracle. His head just isn't in the game anymore.

I would like to hear the argument for Vinny on the 3rd line. Quite frankly I don't see that as a good fit.
- Pelle31Forever


In the traditional sense of what a 3rd line is, I agree. But it really would depend on who his Wingers are.

It's amazing someone with so much talent can be so universally hated. He might be the most talented current hockey player without a job in professional hockey.
- PhillySportsGuy



Guy could've been a flat out star. Has more talent and ability then a lot of top players. It's a shame.

Anyone think Hexy will still make some front office or scouting changes this summer now that the draft is over?

Doug Gilmour would be a solid choice so would Mike Kelly, Ray Shero, or even somebody Hexy worked with while in L.A.

I love Hanrahan's Schrutian rise to his current position:

"Barry Hanrahan was named Assistant General Manager of the Flyers during the 2005-06 season. Previously, Hanrahan served as director of team services and assistant to the general manager respectively for the Flyers."
