when they showed him on the bench it looked like he was cradling his arm or shoulder so I think you are right.

Simmonds is very physical. He wins board battles. He’s a leader, which this team really lacks. He stands up for his teammates. He’s probably the toughest skilled guy in the league. He’s the second highest PP scorer to OV since he got to Philadelphia.

What else do you want?

Dude we all know you love simmer. Like obsessed. And we all know he's good. No one is arguing that. The question is can we afford him at the cap hit he wants and if in 2 years that deal won't be good awful. He still doesn't bring anything at 5 on 5 and we have young power forwards in the pipe. We've had this discussion a hundred times and every time you refuse to look at the bigger picture. I hope they can resign him to a short term deal even if it requires a higher cap but he will probably want the max he can get and the flyers should think long and hard about giving him that.

IDK what Hagg did over the summer but he looks way better than last year. Still not sold but I would be more than happy to eat my words if he keeps playing this way

Really good effort today.....best two periods by the D on a whole ...all year. Gap control, really good today, with only a few odd man rushes. Without Fluery, Flyers would be up a few.....Hopefully Laughton ok, he really is playing good right now.

Starting to open up finally. Looked like a 90s Devils game to long.

A part of me hopes that the guy inside Gritty is just showing his real personality and it’s not staged. That the marketing guys have just run with it.

One trick pony that for all his talk of grit I don’t really see a whole lot of it outside of the PP.

He’s not a POS but I would love if they explore a trade. Here is to hoping.

Have you been watching the games? Simmonds has been one of their best forwards to this point of the season.

Don’t get personal. I make a point for Simmonds, I’m obsessed. I make a point for Schenn, I’m obsessed. I can’t believe I’m responding to this message because it’s so (frank)in stupid. Simmonds will want the max? This is just a dumb assumption in itself.

He lost puck battles, turned the puck over (just did again), and looks uncomfortable with the puck on his stick.

tirefire might be rough, but he's been the worst defender this game.

- VladDrag


MacDonald has been fine in this game. Provorov in that second period had 4 really poor turnovers.

Stating that Simmonds doesn't bring anything at 5 on 5 is complete nonsense. Part of the big picture that some apparently refuse to look at is that Simmonds is still a very good player and looks to be healthy this season.

Dude you make things personal all the time. And here we go again with the victim complex. Oh and btw the Flyers pp last year was just as good without simmer ad it was with him. And we have jvr who can easily take his spot. Simmonds is awesome. But he's not irreplaceable. Few players are

vanRiemsdyke cannot take Simmonds spot on the PP. They are opposite handed.

He deserves JVR $ for sure....I’m hoping they sign him....that’s just me. He is also the toughest player they have. Not sure who replaces that if he ever is dealt.

I made valid points to keep Simmonds and the best you can come up with to counter is, I’m obsessed and he’ll want the max is payment. Not one of those counter points by you sounds stupid to you?

I think this is pretty logical thinking, yes.
