Too late Hexy is trading 18, moran next yrs first and schenn for #4, Yak, and Hall
- flyers4487



To Philly:
Hall
Yakupov
#4

To Edmonton:
Schenn
Morin
#18
2017 1st rounder



I prefer Morin over Sanheim but that is interesting.

I would do it if I can replace Morin with Sanheim.

No way Hall is a throw in. Hall and #4 gets you PK Subban or Malkin or Pietro

Too much. And EDM has zero reason to move Hall. That's like asking us to move Ghost.

I really don't expect any big moves by the Flyers tonight, nor do I expect any big signings or major trades during the Summer. This team is a work in progress and I think they will stay with program and be patient.

Next summer is the time to look at free agency or perhaps a major trade. By then, the expansion draft is over, Streit and Schultz are off the books and they even be able to move AMac with some retention. Also, more of the kids will have more pro experience under their belts as well.

okay i'm ready to learn all about all of the draft kids now
- -davies-


First rounders are probably really good
Second rounders - some are good, some are okay
Third - seventh rounders - good for them to get drafted but you'll probably never hear their names again so listen closely

Lol I guess I only have 5 as well, my point is if you get yak for a 2nd you can juggle him around the lineup and see what happens.

I dont realistically think edm will trade him for a 2nd, but id give a 2nd and a 3rd or 4th for him. Think it could help the team in the short term with no long term repercussions.

Thats hexys goal this offseason isn't it? Get better now, but not at the expense of the future.

- flyers4487


exactly what im saying, see if a 2nd and 4th gets it done, we have 11 picks, get something done in that regard. its a manageable cap hit and we see if we can strike gold, like an MDZ signing.

id do that 10 out of 10 times.

I'd like to keep Schenn at the right price. He's pretty streaky, but he had a solid year last year. I think he can be a consistent 25 goal scorer. Don't see a reason to trade away from an area that is a need.
- PLindbergh31


would the right price be 5 years 22.5?

A Yak - Couts - Simmer/Jake line could be interesting
- arichardson22


id say yak with G and Simmonds, i like keeping schenn and coots together, and adding voracek for bonafide winger for coots. i think G and simmer and Voracek and Coots are better combinations than G and Voracek and Coots and Simmer, although, you really cant go wrong either way. i think with this as a top 6, while adding a piece or two to better improve the bottom 6, u move into that 100 point mark and possibly looking at a division playoff berth rather than a wild card berth.

Geez I really hate Tanner, him and his stupid fancy stats "proving" everything.

McDavid snubbed coming in 3rd? Best player in the NHL? Takes a hell of a lot more than a measly 48 pts in 45 games to even open that debate. Better than Crosby? WOW. McJeebus needs to start racking up 90+ point seasons and translating them into wins before that conversation even starts.
