Description
Still probably not enough, but is it a good starting point? I've seen a ton of offer sheets, but I have to think EDM is looking for players and not just picks at this point. My question to EDM fans is basically would you rather have this deal or an offer sheet? I have a feeling Drai will stay regardless, but just throwing around some ideas. My question to other Flyers fans is would you part with Simmer if this is the type of deal that we could make?

**Note**
I am still firmly in the camp of not breaking up the Flyers until we see if this core of players can play with a competent defense, but players like Drai are rare (IMO) and from the EDM games I've watched this year I think he is a stud and not just riding McDavid's stellar play to the top.

Lastly, I feel really bad for Taylor Hall....

    I dont think this would fly, I think oilers would rather have Coutueier or Schenn but not impressed with their cap hit for a 3rd line C. Just don think it matches up well for either team

    yeah I thought about Schenn, but the cap hit made me think they might want Simmer more. If they wanted a center then yeah it'd ahve to be Coots because Schenn can't play center anymore - that experiment has ended this year
