As a Flyers fan, if they went into next season with this roster I would cry my eyes out.

The good -
Sanheim
Bishop (would never happen, not for 6.2)
Leier I think he'll be a solid 3rd/4th liner

The bad -
Ghost (5.5 is way too much).
Eaves King Miller Weber (don't need any of them)
Morin will make the Nhl before Hagg
Konecny on the 4th line??? Do you watch the Flyers play?
Ghost/Provy would be an absolute disaster right now as a pair

That's about right or keep Laughton and send a 3rd instead. No way at this point I'd give a 1st for him tho.

Thread: 16/17 - Myers, Rieder

I agree 4mil for top 6 is good. I just don't think Rieder is that man yet. He hasn't done enough to get that kind of contract. That's why I think he should get a bridge deal just like B. Schenn got a couple of years ago 2yrs for 2.5. If he proves he belongs than he can get his 4/yr or more.

Ok, thought that you were trading for his rights, then signing him. Either way I think that would be too much. Getting another skilled player would be nice just not at that cost for Rieder.

Thread: 16/17 - Myers, Rieder

The price for Rieder seems a bit high, change the 1st to a 2nd and I think it's closer. The 4/yr for 7 is an overpayment, 2.5 for 3yrs is more reasonable.

It's not awful, but it's definitely not cup worthy. I was just being realistic with what I think it is going to look like next season. I agree we do need a RHD. I don't think Macdonald gets bought out till after next season. It's also highly doubtful he gets traded unless we retain some of his cap.

True but I don't think that both Sanhiem and Morin both make the roster next year. Having 4 of your 6 dman having less than 2 years of nhl experience isn't a good thing. It's not that I don't think they would be ready, I just think it could hurt there development not having a veteran presence to guide them. So I see MDZ getting resigned next season.
I see our defense looking like this in 17/18
Ghost/MDZ
Provorov/Gudas
Moran/Macdonald

Fair enough. I think he'll be ready after this season tho. I also don't see him as a C on this team. I think he lines up on a Wing with Couts and Simmons. Unless during the offseason we make a splash, free up some cap space and get a 6mil a year winger but I don't think realistically that would happen

Thread: Flyers side of Jets/Ducks/Flyers and more...

Yeah I looked. I like Leier. He could be a perfect 3rd line LW for this team. A Leier/Cousins/NAK 3rd line I'd like. It's a young line but I think they would mesh very well together.

I'm a little surprised you didn't have Konecny on the 17/18 roster tho

You really like Laughton. I cringe seeing him on the 2nd. Would like to see Weal get a solid crack at the lineup.

I'd be ok with these deals. Maybe rather than 2 4th's from Dallas change it to just a single 3rd, considering they would be late 4th cause Dallas has a solid team.

I like that we would have some cap space to play with heading into next season.

Thread: Bringing in the big guys

Flyers don't touch this, Simmons has one of the best contracts in the league(one of the few things Holmgren did right) and has 3 seasons left on it. Only to receive 2 players that haven't proved anything while also giving up a 2nd. No thankyou

Thread: Back to the playoffs

Yeah, lots of things wrong here.

Basically Schultz is being traded for cap space in this trade which is ok, but there is no need for us to throw in a 3rd and 4th round pick to do so. That's an overpayment and you're using that cap space to sign a player that is not needed. We'd be better off keeping Schultz and our picks than let him walk after the season and use the cap space else where.

Gordon on the 3rd line is just terrible. You're about 10 years late with Tanguay.

If a defensemen is going to be traded it's cause Provorov makes the team. It won't be for Hagg to sit in the suites watching the games. He be better off staying in LV if that is the case

I've seen him play many times at the PPL center. We'll just have to agree to disagree on him.
The same thing goes with every other team in the league with converting centers into wingers. Yeah RNH is soft but not everyone is Tarzan, every team has a few Janes.

I see your future lines as realistic, but still not a Cup worthy roster. Top 2 lines are nice, but 3rd and 4th are huge ?'s. I don't think Laughton is gonna turn into a top 6 forward. 3rd line at the very best. Cousins in my opinion has more upside than Laughton.

Getting rid of Read should be of high priority for Hexy this season. Get whatever draft pick or expiring contract you can get for him. I know it's a pipe dream but than hopefully Vegas takes Macdonald in the expansion draft.

Thread: My Flyers 16

I disagree with you on Stolarz. I don't think he'll be a superstar but he has the talent to be a solid goalie and he has the one thing you cant teach... Size. Now Lyon I'm not sure about him becoming a regular NHL goalie since I haven't seen him play live, so I can't really have an opinion on him. I do think that Carter Hart is our future #1 tho

I agree that RNH is over played (by about 1.5 mil a year) and being that he still has 5 years left on his contract really hurts his value. Could he turn into a 6 mil a year player? Sure he could. He would be that top 6 forward that Hexy's been looking for. I think that he would benefit from playing wing instead of center since he wouldn't have as much defensive responsibility as a winger so he could play more freely in the offensive zone.

As for Nichushkin he's someone i'd be willing to take a chance on. I really liked him at the draft and at the time I hoped he would have fallen to us. I think all he needs is a change of scenery, consistent playing time and knowing that if he makes a mistake his playing time isn't going to be cut. Maybe he could be our make up for trading JVR.

Thread: My Flyers 16

What do you think would have to be added to the RNH trade to get that done?

Niemi would just be a stop gap. Talent wise Mason has a slight edge and a better contact, but gambling on an underperforming Nichushkin makes the deal worth it. Niemi would split time Nuevy this season unless one ran away with the job. Both Stolie and Lyon spend this year in LV, than one of them takes over as backup next year before taking over full time when Niemi's contact expiries.

As for the lines I prefer them to be balanced. Each of the top 3 lines have 2 good players to go along with 1 decent player. Only line I'm not sure about would be the 2nd line since it's a completely new line. Maybe Couts and RNH could play on a line together for Team NA to gain some chemistry.
