Thread: One of my many mock Flyers off seasons. Comment.
As a Flyers fan and a Wayne Simmonds fan, i can say that Simmonds had an off year but was battling so many injuries. He also got demoted to the third line sometimes. I think this year whenever the top 9 forwards get better and he has better line mates, stays healthy and battling for a new contract extension, we will put up some pretty good numbers compared to last years (which wasn't even bad, tbh) I think Simmonds could get a 4,500,000 a year contract for 3-4 years.

As for Weal i think we could get more for the guy. Maybe not straight up just Weal, also add in Raffl or a draft pick and get a 3rd round pick. The Canucks is another team that would make an offer to get Weal, they tried to get him when he was a free agent, he is a young guy and his play style fits in their system.

Thread: Krejci's much needed blanket (i.e. Simmonds) - Flyers fans comment? Part 3 (JT)
I'm a Flyers fan and can tell you that if we ever did trade Simmonds, his new team should not be offering 6.5mil a year.

He's got heart, the size and the attitude. But other than that, not much. His shooting and passing ability is average and i would think that he's only worth about 4,650,000 a year.

He was playing the entire season with many many injuries and even forgot some of the ones he had when the interviewers were asking him about them,

Also i'm not sure who the players are in the trade coming to philly are, but when trade rumors were happening with Simmonds it was suggested that a package deal could be made with him to get a first round pick.

Example: Simmonds, A 3rd round pick and a low-mid tier prospect for a top 15th overall pick.

Also Boston and Philly have two of the best prospect pools in the whole league and if they ever traded in recent years i could see philly trading one of our goalie prospects to you guys such as Anthony Strolaz or Felix Sandstorm.
