Would pretty much mean the end for Rinaldo (not that I'd mind that). Certainly don't need both of them.

Yes to all three... would consider any of them.

This might be a stupid question to some but do we still need that big checking center? I want to say yes but Couturier really did step in and do a fantastic job all season long. Just ask Malkin.

I want to see Couturier take on more offensive responsibilities next season (he'll still be excellent defensively, and match against Malkin and other top offensive centers in the playoffs).

And, yes, I do think the Flyers need to add another checking forward. Prefer Talbot and Read as wingers.

I'm still debating whether I prefer Schenn as a LW or C. Leaning toward winger.

I'd like to limit Carle to a 3 but no longer than a 4 year deal & one that's under what Coburn is making or equal at most.

I thought Schenn did well when he played wing. And given the other centers we already have, I think that's where he can help the most. We can definitely use his physical play on the wing.

Also, agreed that Talbot and Read are better on the wing. Read really gets more of a chance to use his speed on the wing. Love that guy, and love his attitude. What a great pickup by Homer.

I think there will at least one top-nine opening, yes. I don't think the entire top 9 will be back, though not sure who specifically.

Parenteau gave the Flyers some problems this season, though his stat line (0 G, 3 A in 6 games) wouldn't show it.

Isn't Walsh Parenteau's agent? I think PA gets paid.

Danny at center; Schenn on the wing?
