I wonder if Fletcher would have a handshake agreement with another team if he got a great offer for Simmonds, but he won't move him until after the outdoor game. It would be a classy move. |

Always interesting that the out of town press always refers to 180lb beanpole Simmonds as "beef", or "big", or "muscle".
Just goes to show you what kind of player he really is from a toughness and heart perspective. He has a lot of respect around the league it seems.
If they could resign him to 3 years at 7aav I would be ecstatic. Term is the barrier IMO. I could even live with 4 years if the aav came down a bit. But anything longer is throwing out bad money, especially at the end of the deal.

It sounds nice, but no GM in a million years would do that. On either side of the deal.

Earlier someone said that he was out but i'm pretty sure the Pens blogger said he and Schultz might be back for this game from a post a day or two ago. |

Me too, those Avalanche teams with Sakic and Forsberg were so good. The 80's Flyers teams, despite three Cup final losses, have always been my favourite though.
I can honestly say, I've never, ever, liked the Penguins though - Dave21Brown
the 90-91 team was one of the best ive ever seen. the late 70s habs, then 80s oilers, 80s isles, yzerman/fedrerov wings, sakic/forsberg avs, all were awesome, but 66 90-94 was the best player ive seen by far.

I disagree. If Fletcher is trying to get the best deal and the other team is really interested, it can easily drag out until the deadline. Maybe re-signing is still on the table or there are multiple interested other teams...there are lots of reasons Simmonds might still be with the team for the outdoor game.

Penguins fans always puzzle me.
On the one hand, they'll say Gretzky got all of his numbers because his team was so good.
In the next breath, they'll tell me that the early 90s Pens teams were as good as any Oilers team ever.
I think the 2 teams stack up pretty evenly, honestly. |

What's up with all the emphasis on the outdoor game? People honestly think Fletcher would tell a trade to hold on because he wants Simmer to play in the outdoor game? No chance. |

I don't think so dude. What if Simmonds gets hurt? What if the other GM gets a better offer that involves part of the Simmonds deal? What if Fletcher gets a better deal for Simmonds? |

No, I think it’s more the interesting timing of the outdoor game, right before the trade deadline. |

not sure anyone has noticed or not but simmonds try level out there is very low, he made a comment a month or so ago after a fight that he was stupid for fighting, meaning he has no deal and if anything happens to him it can and will affect his next contract, he is going to be traded and until then he will just lolly gag around out there |

Anyone can get hurt in any game, practice or elsewhere. I don’t believe that is a reason to not let him play if he is still with the team...and yes, that is what I think. |

some overlap with players, but also slightly different eras. i was probably to young to appreciate early gretzky, but from 88-95 mario was just such a dominant, transcendant player even with substandard talent early oni dont see how hes not viewed as 1b to waynes 1a.
i know gretzky scored 200 plus twice, but mario put up 199 with such a lesser talent base. |

Yegor Zamula is tied for 8th place in defenseman scoring in the WHL this year. |
