Pals don't make pals think about things!

(the line is familiar, I'm just not pulling it out right now...so I'm going to be offended instead.)

Surely the wrong reference but funny nonetheless.

Settle down, smartypants.

The lines I like:
12/28/93
89/14/10
24/21/17
20_25/78/76


Thought those lines showed the most jump

Who would you swap around? I do not think Simmonds and Schenn have ever really been an effective combination. Too similar. I'm ok swapping Umberger and Read, but that's not what you're suggesting, is it?
- TheGreat28

I would keep B. Schenn with Coots

Gagner- Couturier- B. Schenn
Read - Laugton - Simmonds / Umberger

Settle down, smartypants.

Just saying, "pal" was not part of the cadence.

I agree, switch 12 with 20 to get a spark or something

I'd try to pry Sonny Milano from Columbus. If I remember some posters are not big fans, and he has his pros and cons. But we could put him at LW, and he's got the speed and hands to really add value here.
- TheGreat28

Could you do hagg for Milano? Both teams get younger players at areas of need.

Maybe throw Simmonds there. He seems to be trying to do too much with the puck. Simplify and dig pucks and get to the net. Raffl with laughton and read would have speed to use on offense and still be a good defensive lineline.

They tried Simmonds on the left wing, that experience didn't last long.

That's pretty even. Columbus might want Morin or Ghost, but I wouldn't do either. I'd move them, but not for Milano.

Something like L Schenn and Hagg for Milano and a 2nd round pick might help both sides out short and long-term.

how is he doing in Arizona, anyway? Tanner have a heart attack yet?
- funmaster18

Steady, knows how to play around his limitations and use what he does well.

Does anybody know what Mason's personal issues were?

Unless they switch Voracek and Simmer, don't remember if the Flyers ever tried that combo putting Jakub on the left wing:

Voracek - G - Simmer

Nope

No idea, although I'm guessing the beats know and won't tell out of respect to Mason.

Makes sense

Actually, I think it's a credit to most people here that there hasn't been endless speculation on what it may be. Everything is generally fair game on HB, but it shows the respect for the player and the decency of the posters to give him his privacy.

I've read a couple of people on twitter ripping the beat writers, but I think they've also shown remarkable restraint as well.

Yes, but he doesn't want to discuss it publicly and all of us around the team in any way are respecting it. Suffice to say it was an emotionally wrenching family issue and that the support of the team environment and getting back playing hockey again is a catharsis in coping.
