Normally, I would agree, but Amac would be the 5th player to have that happen to him in the last 4 years of the Flyers.

Lupul, Carter, Richards and JVR.

JvR, too, right?

And that was a GM trading his own contracts. Hexy's not married to anything that Homer did as GM, thankfully.

Would love them to package AMac (and his poop contract) in a deal for a better dman... if that was in any way possible.

The nice thing about MacDonald was Hextall's half hearted defense of his deal

Schenn and Read looking real good at Worlds...might want to try a 10-14-24 line. Just saying

Being a Philly sports fan pretty much sucks right now:
The Flyers are done and the Rangers are still playing
The Phillies blow
The Sixers are down to rooting for a ping pong ball
The Eagles don't play a meaningful game til September

And the frankin weather isn't even nice

This thread is very disappointing. Not nearly enough bickering over semantics.

I think Schenn plays better at center, but not markedly so. I keep doing line combos, and I keep getting back to two things-I want Couturier in a scoring line role and I want Laughton as the third center.

i don't remember it either, but it's been a couple of days at least. when there's a sudden absence and the thread count is about half of what it normally is, there's a reason.

And if Schenn is still a Flyer, in that scenario, he'll be a LW with either Couturier or Giroux.

Yeah, but the Flyers won't trade for an overpaid stiff who has 1 goal in his last 18 playoff games.

Oh, sorry. I made a mistake. But I still can't agree. Donald Brashear isn't likely to come back and he doesn't skate well enough to play center.

Regardless if you unload Vinny or not, Laughton comes up and your back to square one. We might even be worse off because we get even younger with Laughton coming in and with that comes the growing pains. Schenn should have saw full time wing duties even when he was playing on a line with Simmonds and Briere. Not much has changed in all three seasons since Schenn has been a regular in the line up. I've tried to point this out many times already but I think many think Laughton will come in and Sean Couturier with immediate 20 goal offense.
