Patrick dominated that shift. Beautiful to see. Now we just need someone to score.

I honestly don't give enough (frank)s about Schenn too reply to this seriously sorry man. You obviously have a hard on for the guy it is what it is he got traded and the Flyers got the better of the deal in my mind
- FreshFlyer

This is all you got?

Brayden Schenn is a young number All-Star center in St Louis who has only made St Louis better on his own merit.

Facts are facts.

The ample opportunity is Schenn is now a number one center and an All-Star in St Louis.
- SuperSchennBros

hes good player. he wouldnt have the same numbers playing here. I agree that, he would give the Flyers a more complete lineup, this year. He isnt a make or break player. He only had 9pts in the 17 games that Schwartz missed. I like the move for the long term.

We'll never know but I won't argue this because G and Jake are the main focus of our team. You're not taking their points or ice time away.

Never said he was close to the worst d-man in the league, but what do you disagree with?

-Risto can't hold Ghost's jock
-One of the more overrated d-men in the league
-He isn't touching PP1. We have enough PP d-men
-I think Sanheim can be better than him long-term

Just give me a next time, dooood. You know you wanna.

You do realize that moving a player from spot to spot could ruin a player's comfort in one position, right? Schenn isn't currently being moved all over the place and it's worked out.

A lot of circumstances had to come into play to get to where we are now. We traded for Filppula, which I never would've have done in a million years. Filppula was on the road to nowhere the moment he got here. Than we won the draft lottery to draft Patrick. Nobody expected this. Scott Laughton finally has become an nhl regular. Sean Couturier started scoring by Hakstol taking a risk and making him our number one center.

Even with these four ways of getting lucky, you could still easily fit Schenn in the line up because our fourth line isn't great. In my opinion, it isn't Coots' production that replaced Schenn because Schenn was producing on the second or third line. Its Filppula who replaced Schenn by being here as a player we never needed.

But it wasn’t necessarily like Schenn didn’t have consistent time in each position he was tried at. Filppula and Schenn have no correlation imo; Getting Patrick determined Schenn’s fate, as well as getting an offer we couldn’t turn down. Schenn was NEVER 3rd line; maybe if he pissed Haks off. He had majority of time 1st line and 2nd line with 1st PP unit time. Schenn disappeared for long stretches while getting the ice time to snap out of it. I liked Schenn but he wasn’t a fit. I’ll gladly take Frost as well with the season he is having.

Nobody knew Scott Laughton was finally going to put it together the way that he has. Nobody expected Couturier to take over the number one center role. The expandable Brayden Schenn is better than 80% of the forwards on this team. Giroux, Voracek and Simmonds are on borrowed time as they enter their 30's.
