If one guy is the answer then what's his name? Don't say Weber, because that's just a pipe dream as of right now. I'm not knocking Grossman or Coburn or Meszaros or Timonen. I like all of those guys. My point is the Flyers are short a puck moving defenseman and a hard hitting, physical defenseman on the back end. Even if they do sign Suter, I'd still like to see them go after another defenseman.

They aren't short a hard hitting physical defenseman on the back end. If they re-sign Carle, all they're short is a true #1.

There are about 40 d-men I would look to move JvR for before Schenn...

It might take more for most:
Enstrom
Yandle
Shattenkirk
Faulk
Edler
Seabrooke just to name a few

I don't think any of the top 3 will make to the 45th pick. However, have heard the Flyers also like Joonas Korpisalo, so that's a possibility.

any "xxxxxsalo" is welcome in my opinion.

What is your definition of a star player. For me it's; high marks in all cataegories, reproducability year over year, durability, scoring, physical play, fan base, all-round play... I think my last note shows that he is above average in all categories.

Ryan is a goal scorer. He's not an all around player. He's a 30 goal Winger. A real nice player. But not a star.

that 2nd rounder will not make it to the draft. it's burning a hole in holmger's pockets as we speak.

Yea thats what i was worried about. I know that the Jets were also in on Bob with their 2nd round pick which would of been the 39th pick and there would of been a better chance of the goalies being around at that time... But we will see what happens

Pshh.. you would never get that for that soft POS. Guy is terrible. Cant believe he forced the Flyers to use the 2nd overall pick on him.. Could have drafted Wayne Gretzky instead

Only a second rounder for Bob?.. Thought it would of been better to use him in a package. But good move getting rid of his salary

Not worth enough.. especially to teams with tradeable defensive assets is my guess
