how's Johnny Gaudreau doing so far? Do you see a lot of improvement?
- Barnaby36

He is doing well this year. I think it will take a couple more years for him to blossom fully, his play making abilities are stellar though.

Philly ends up with the better players there. Not close.

You think Perron and J Schultz is much more valuable then the Schenns??

I think B. Schenn is the best player in that deal personally. Schultz and Luke are basically throwaways...i think Edmonton would make that deal.

Couple things here...
T-Mac = Tracy McGrady
Mac-T is the GM not a coach anymore.
Bylsma won a cup and coached that team reasonably well..

Bylsma also managed to ruin one of the most stacked teams ever in the 2013 playoffs. Refused to separate Iginla and Malkin despite it never, ever, ever showing signs it was going to work and refused to put Iginla with Crosby despite them showing chemistry every time they were out together.

Know what would be super fun?

Fire all coaches and let the players run the teams. I bet that would be (frank)ing awesome.

Swapping out T-MAC for Bylsma would be a horrible move as they same coach...... horrible line combinations & total mismanagement of ice time for players. As they are both overrated coaches.

Just to remind you: Bylsma loves TK

L.Schenn is slow as F. He's a bottom pairing D-men on most of the good teams if not a 7th defenseman. Schultz is better than him, no doubt.

As for the Perron and B.Schenn swap, I'd rather have Perron on my team but since Cs are expensive to get I'll give you that. They are pretty close.

I would do B Schenn and Coburn for Perron and Schultz and maybe add a mid pick

Nice. I bet he'd be amazing with Sid and Geno. Tic-tac-toe BAM!

B. Schenn is also a bunch of years younger with arguably a higher ceiling.

Schultz may be more talented but the guys a tire fire on D. Because of Oils needs i think they'd pull the trigger there.

I hope Bylsma goes to SJ. He'll trade for his buddy Craig Adams and the Penguins would be free of some dead weight

Now it's a different story. Coburn > L.Schenn. That would be interesting.

I would want no piece of L.Schenn though. Throw in Coburn and it's a whole different story as someone mentioned above.

- Barnaby36

Agreed, I have no interest in Luke. not much of an upgrade on even our plugger D.

The one player leafs should be going hard after but won't happen since they're stuck in evaluation mode for the last 3 years

- Oilfan19

Just cause he won a cup doesn't make him a good coach, would you consider Marc Crawford a good coach? Like i said before bad line combinations & total mismanagement of ice time sharks don't need that type of coach we already have that in Todd McLellan.

i'd rather see the flyers tank this year than to make a bunch of stupid trades

lol

Ain't happening

The problem with the Flyers are the 4 or 5 bad contracts that they signed marginal players to.

Unless the Flyers turn it around on the ice you're going to see both

Put that Oil jersey on him cause nobody can out tank us.

Sat once from the coach to get a different perspective from above. He's been flying ever since

It's pretty hard to beak that flames team right now, they are doing everything right.
