Pulling the plug on and injured JVR will be Patrick Sharp all over again
- Scottie Upshall


Not really. If they get Schenn, they're getting a proven NHLer, not a guy who is unproven like Matt Ellison. Also all reputable reporters say that if the deal is made, it will be more than Schenn coming back.

Apples and oranges to Sharp.

Carle will not sign for 4M. He can do far better in Free Agency.

Then let someone overpay
I would throw up if they gave him 5mill

Wait I'm confused. You've suggested trading JvR how many times and now you're saying it wouldn't be a good idea. What am I missing?

I agree, but JVR will be a better player in the longer run.
They give Schenn and Colborne and I make the deal

He could be, but let's see what the deal is, or if it even happens.

The Flyers are not shopping JvR, nor has he asked to be traded. Toronto approached the Flyers, so the Flyers should be able to set the price they want, and not make a move if it's not met.

There's a lot of different ways that they could make a deal with the Leafs that would be fair for both teams.

So would I. But that doesn't mean I would throw up to sign a good player what he's worth.

Kadri's a better prospect than Colborne.

The stats and comparable players with his stats say otherwise.

I'd like to see Rinaldo get back in the line up. I know most probably won't agree, but sit Harry Z and bring Rinaldo back in.

I think both of them deserve ice time. Unfortunately one has to sit. I think we see Rinaldo sooner than later.

Why isn't he?

Because he's not a big physical player, just a skilled, very solid one.
