It would not surprise me at all.

I really dont want to lose Coburn. He's our best dman behind Kimmo IMO.

Braydon Coburns dont grow on trees, and we acquired him for nothing.

What if they make a move like Coburn + for Suter...

Kubina should upgrade the PP right away.

Why would he be a filler? He is now the 6th and final d-man for us. The rooks now get moved down to the Phantoms and are call ups if needed.
- Flyers2821


I didn't say it was definitely happening.

But Homer trading 4 draft picks away in a matter of 3 days for two dmen, one in the twilight of his career, doesn't make a ton of sense when this team doesn't exactly look like a contender right now.

Not even if they are getting Coburn who can step in and be a top 4 d-man for them and they have him for the next 4 years?

If we really got nash and mason for jvr, bob, schenn and a 1rst. I would have to be pretty happy with that.

No, even Homer wont do that & risk Suter leaving plus Coburn gone?

The only way they trade Coburn is if they acquire say a Suter or Weber. Which is where I think this is now headed. Nash was a smokescreen all day today. It was all way too open and out in the public for how the Flyers operate.

Depending on if JVR goes back the other way to, its not that unrealistic.

Coburn would offset his loss and is signed to a much smaller cap hit then what he's gonna get in the summer.

Nashvilles going to spend to the cap next year as per their GM. Even if they do, I don't think they can fit him AND Weber without addressing other areas.

Highly unlikely, but its not impossible.

There has to be a plan. If this is all the moves made besides trading a phantoms player to lose a contract I will be surprised. I have no idea what the Flyers are up to at this point.

Not me.

The idea of replacing Bob with Steve (frank)ing Mason is absolutely painfull.

IDK we also need a goalie, and a top scorer like Nash? Mason in a new environment, can't be much worse than what we have

If Sievegalov was part of the deal it could happen.
