Does anyone else think the Flyers won't be able to move anything at the deadline? I was really hoping that Nashville would have reacquired him. But since they picked up that Franson, I can't see them making a play for Kimmo. - redcoat75
Other teams will have interest. At the very least I'm sure a team or two will call about Schultz and MDZ as well.

We are less than 2 weeks away from the TDL (March 2nd). Kimmo has said he wants at least 1 week to practice with the team before returning,, which puts his first possible game at Carolina on 2/24. There are 2 more games (@ TML 2/26 and vs. NYR 2/28) before the TDL. I doubt that 3 games, in fairly quick succession, without any prior games this season, will be enough for most teams to get a good feel for what he can offer them.

They might do it based on past performance and optimism, but the return will be heavily conditional.

Perhaps if Kimmo puts up 5G, 10A in those three games
Lightening are looking for defense and possible PP quarterback. Kimmo could be a help for them. Also Coburn(not the PP part). TB has 2 first rounders and some decent prospects. Could they maybe get a slater Koekkoek or namestnikov or Erne? I don't know. Probably not but I would be hitting up these playoff teams because they will want to sure up the d for playoffs. Anaheim lost Beleksy and Vatenen. How about Coburn and B.Schenn for a first and Shea Theodore or Etem or Karlsson or Ritchie.
Not sure if it can happen but I think some of these playoff teams might get desperate
