NAK would be a perfect bottom 9 winger for this team RH shot with good speed who has been excellent 5 on 5. I think Weal is in trouble next season. If he isn't scoring, he isn't good enough defensively to play on the 3rd line.

Where does the riot start once they trade Foles?

Jk, I'm actually in favor of them getting a 1st for him(and then signing another backup of course)

- hereticpride


I would love a mid first rounder. Address the need at Linebacker with a high end prospect.

That being said it's tough. The draft class has 5 guys at minimum they all believe can be solid nhl starters. Mccaaron, keenum, bradford, cousins, bridgewater, and mccown all available. Who is going to give up a first for Foles when they could grab one of those guys? If I'm a gm I am keeping my multiple picks and signing one those guys or drafting one those guys.

Rumor has it the Cardinals have a lot of interest in Foles. If they’re offering the 15th overall pick and say a 3rd rounder too; well, as much as I love Foles, you gotta make that deal.
- BiggE

You absolutely have to do that deal if that's the return. There's enough talent on this team to get by with a backup til Wentz gets back. The division is terrible anyway. Those picks will be huge in the coming years. I think turning that down to keep Foles for 1 year to play like maybe half a season tops would be a massive mistake.

NAK with another ES point; I like Matt Read and thought he was ok on the pk, but I’d sit him for NAK in a heartbeat

IMO, He is a better player than Read or Lehtera.
- VladDrag


I think he has the potential to be better. I don't think hextall or Hasktol agrees on Lehtera as he has been a staple of the lineup over the past 2 months.

Read had half the points in half the games as Nak. He also has a ton of NHL experience.

I just don't see the flyers organization benching either one for NAK but I would love to see it happen.

Read won’t score anymore but he might be able to drive the play still. He is good with puck possession and a very smart player. NAK, you just don’t know, yet, probably not the time of the year to find out.

I would trade him for an early to mid 2nd and a 3rd. I would absolutely trade him for a 1st and 3rd/4th.

I look at the Bills with mcdermott and Shady and all their picks. Give me 22 and 96 or 53 and 65 and I do it.

I think NAK makes it out of training camp. Read will be gone. Filp should be gone, Weise isnt getting better and Leier didn't impress at all. Weal will need a really good camp to make it out of camp. It would help Weal a lot if Frost doesnt have a good camp.

The guy just won 3 playoff games including a Superbowl and put up unreal numbers. They’ll get a first and more

Yeah, I would demand at least a 1st.

If they can get 15th overall from Arizona oh man, there are some nasty defensive players they could add. Not to mention any WR to fill the Torey Smith vacancy.

I hope your right but Jimmy G got an early 2nd. I think we need to acquire more picks somehow someway in the top 90 because we need depth at so many positions and cant afford to just rely on free agents

I don't see the Flyers calling up a young player like that to play on the 4th line.

Watching pens vs Dallas.

Another phantom call on someone besides the pens.

Both these teams look like they're playing playoff hockey tonight.

I'm honestly afraid to see us in the playoffs. I just can't see some of our depth players keeping up this pace.

First thought I agree but styles make games sometimes, these teams are wide open right now

Next summer, Wentz is gonna get PAID. That means a lot of departures. This upcoming season is their best chance to repeat. You cool with Nate Sudfeld possibly starting 8 games next year? I'm not.

Lol if they trade Foles they're signing another back up. Sudfeld won't sniff the field.

Once Johnny Oduya is declared ready to play, the Flyers will need to make a decision on what they want to do with Sanheim. They have 3 recalls left but with 15 forwards and 7 defenseman, they should be able to use one of their remaining recalls to keep Sanheim up. The issue what will they do once Haag is ready to return.

if he earns it it's not an issue to me. Amac-Sanheim, hagg-gudas.

If he doesn't earn it. amac-hagg, manning-gudas, send sanheim down for ahl playoffs.
