So I just read that Trump wants to send men to Mars as soon as possible.

I wonder if he expects the Martians to pay for it by putting a tariff on Martian imports.

the offer was jvr @ 50% retained.

so, the 25 year-old guy who is 4/5 on the ducks depth chart > jvr for trade value. got it.

- Tumbleweed

I think a lot are overeating Manson

I would love him on the team but he is a really good number 5 who plays only the PK...trading JVR straight up for him would be

I think they trade JVR for Vatanen with other pieces from both sides

or they use Bozak and retain half his salary and send guys like Carick and Leivo for Hjamalrsonn..Leivo would be their next Panik, Carick would be a cheap puck puck mover that they need and Bozie would be the Center who can win draws and put up points.

A friend of mine who's a bandwaggoner Hawks fan actually came up with it. He wants a 2nd/3rd thrown in though

Honest answer: I don't know.

Simmonds is an odd player in a couple respects. He is wickedly fast, but only in a straight line. He doesnt move laterally well at all. (Have you ever seen one of his breakaways? Hilarious). He's one of the best net front guys in the league, which he needs to be because he doesnt have much of a wrist shot. He was used on the PK last year.. was so-so at it. He's not huge, but he's really tough to knock off the puck, and to move from the front of the net. He doesnt really create his own chances, but he definitely is a finisher.

I really don't know what his value is in terms of assets coming back. I do know that a lot of the armchair GM's on the Flyers board are hot to trade Voracek, Giroux, and Simmonds... tank... and draft McDavid, Eichel, AND Matthews.

Sounds like Hyman but with finish.

Well, I call it "reading". My computer reads it to me, and I get an illegal immigrant kid from down the road to pay me to explain it to me.

You're right. He only led them in TOI/G and points among D. Seems like they thought he was their #1 but good thing you knew he wasn't.

Pacioretty is one of the best goal scorers in the game. Radulov drives the play and is amazing.

Lekhonen, in a first season after coming from europe, just scored 18 goals with no powerplay time and average 13 min per game.... things are looking good for him.

Galchenyuk and Gallagher had bad years all around, they need to bounce back.

And I told you, I'm not saying Paul Byron is amazing, I'm just saying he scored 22 goals and deserves credit for it.

I said they wouldn't be going far without getting a goalscorer! They picked up ott,benn, king,and what's his face from Edmonton? and gally sucked!they need a new g.m.!

Price told the media yesterday that he understands his contract will affect the team's capacity to bring in other good players and that negociations will take that into account.


He's awesome.

It's like saying Gardiner is Leafs best d-man.
He's not.
One season of sheltered minutes doesn't make Fowler best d-man on Anaheim.
