Thread: Trade targets?

The compensation offered these teams is totally bogus. The guys listed are just trade targets I would like to see Hextall attempt to go for. Buchnevich could be a long shot, but NYR is probably rebuilding so they'll want picks and prospects for him....same with TB....Katchouk will probably require future picks because TBY is talent loaded at this point in time.

Thread: Just spit-ballin'

I would like to see the Flyers clear out as much dead weight as possible to start bringing up the "future".....Lehtera is a waste. You'd get the same production out of a younger player who was faster....cheaper. It's time to see what the kids are made of.

If we could turn 2 first into a player like Aho, I wouldn't be mad at Hexy for making a bold move like that. I just see Carolina wanting to get rid of Ward's price tag for a lesser expensive Neuvirth.

True. Grabner's deal was a little low....but for what he offers a team it's around what you can expect. Somebody may blow the doors off with an offer, ya never know.

Thread: flyers 2k18 3

Did you see the pairing of Manning / Gudas over the past six games? You have a younger talented Dman in Sanheim in the pressbox while Manning is out there? I understand Hak leans on his "vets", but you can't substitute talent for veteran experience.....Sanheim was better then Manning in the series, but the coach, I think made the wrong choice.

Thread: flyers 2k18 3

I don't want Manning anywhere NEAR this team after that playoff series.....He and Gudas were AWFUL....turnover machines.

Too much for Carlson. You have Provorov and Ghost as your top 2 pairing. AMac (god help us) as the veteran....The defense should be fine.

Thread: Flyers w/ Tavares (simple)

I don't want Tavares. Hexy is trying to clean up his cap space....not cause more chaos.

Plus getting rid of good young defensemen in the process....No thank you.

Thread: Fan Favorite All-Stars 87-Present

I would take out Richards and put Dave Poulin in there. He was a favorite on that 80's team.
In net I'd have Robert Esche or Pete Peeters on there before Boosh...
Peter Zezel was a ladies favorite back in the 80's....

It's tough puttin a list tlike this together...there were alot of fan favorites...

Thread: Philadephia Flyers as on July 5th, 2017

I'm alright if Patrick plays 3rd line C for his first season. 3rd line eases him into the NHL by not having to deal with the other team's top 2 lines game in and game every shift Plus it should allow him to catch up to the speed of the NHL at a good pace, not rushed as if he were on the 1st 2 lines. He'll get his minutes and he could prove himself and move up, but he's young and needs to develop in the NHL and be able to learn from his mistakes/shortcomings. We have plenty of time to watch this kid be our #1/#2 center....now is the time for his adjustment.

Thread: Philadelphia Flyers

No to Schultz, Del Zotto, Vandevelde, Gordon or Mason. I'd prefer that this team went in a different direction regarding all these players. The success of the team won't hinder on them being a part of the roster.

Thread: Contesters

I wouldn't offer LV those deals. You're giving away Sanheim, who may become better then Schmidt.
No to Palat - not at that cap number. I'd rather have Weal to see if he can build off of last season.

I'm for the ARI deal...that I could see happening.

Thread: Let's Go Flyers!

If they do bring in Shattenkirk I doubt it'll be for that length of contract....I could see Hexy doling out a 4 year deal....6 is too long to be committed to a player. I know he signed Voracek to a ungodly 8-year deal.....that could be the only long term contract he hands out as GM.

I couldn't remember which pick it was in the 20's....

Thread: Trades

As a Flyers fan I wouldn't trade #2 for # 9 & #71 + a goaltender with one year left on his deal. Philly has a good stockpile of young goaltenders in the system. It would probably take more then that.

Thread: Would you trade 3 First round picks for #2 - Read description.

The rumor said it would be more then that, probably a roster player or two from PHI like Laughton and Manning.....if I were Hexy I'd take a good long look at that deal. The cupboard get restocked real fast that way plus you open up $5 million in cap space and a roster spot, plus you grab a forward who just put up a 30 goal season. Like I said I saw this out there and it made me think....I would probably do this deal myself. The rumored picks were listed as #15 and #24 or #27 (supposedly both are deal that are on the table for LV). So the Flyers end up with #6, #15, and either #24 or #27....which you could possibly be able to package those picks either together or with, say Filppula and move back up in the first round

Thread: "MB won't trade Sergachev for Duchene"

Wow this is a good move on Montreal's part....TB get their top 4 type Dman and MTL gets a winger who could replace Galchenyuk if he's moved.

Forum: Armchair-GMJun. 14, 2017 at 3:16 p.m.

Thread: A little minor tinkering.

The Howard move isn't a move to make the Flyers a contender. It's a move to bring in a bridge goalie till the prospects are ready. I think Tatar would prove to be more valuable then Schenn would be because of skating and offensive ability. Especially at even strength where Schenn seem to struggle last season. I forgot to put in that Detroit would be retaining salary on Howard. Howard and Neuvirth are stable enough to make this team good...possibly playoff contenders....I was thinking maybe the 2nd 4th round pick made that deal a little more then it should've been.

I've been to LHV games....Hagg is, to me at least, 3rd most ready Defensive prospect....Sanheim and Morin are 1 and 2....There's something about Hagg's game that gives me pause to him coming up to the Flyers....I could be wrong, but he shows hesitation in the defensive zone during games....hopefully it's something he'll overcome....with another year of NA hockey....we'll see.

Cousins' is a decent prospect....hasn't really shown anything in his parts of 2 seasons with the Flyers....seems a little undersized out there....but again that deal was just something I'd like to see Hextall attempt. Bring in a player like Tatar for offensive ability and it meant taking Howard, I'd be ok with that to get us to Hart, Lyon or Stolarz when they're ready to take over.

You have to give something to get something.

Thread: Attention Avs fans

If Voracek is on the table, I'd ask for Rantanen and Duchene plus a 2nd rounder in '18 for Voracek, either the BOS 3rd rounder or our 4th rounder, and a low-mid level prospect or one of Read/Weise/Raffl. I'd like to see what the young players can do for this roster.

Too much?

Forum: Armchair-GMMay 22, 2017 at 9:35 a.m.

Thread: What if....

In my description I said the Calgary deal is outlandish, but I'd like to see Hextall try something to revamp this offense. I'd go as far as to send Simmonds and Couturier, plus Hagg or Gudas, negotiating rights to Cousins and Laughton, and a 2nd rounder to CGY for Gaudreau + Tkachuk. I think our players are too comfortable on this team. Our GM hasn't made a significant move outside FA signings that are questionable at best that forces them to play game in and game out.

Forum: Armchair-GMMay 12, 2017 at 12:03 p.m.

Thread: 2017-18 THIS WILL HAPPEN

In order for the Mason trade to work he would have to probably be in agreement to go to ARI in a deal like that. The NHL doesn't really do "sign and trades" type deals because the players would have to accept the deal first. The NBA has them, but the players almost always have knowledge that a team is looking to strike a deal for them. And in the NBA, the team that owns the players rights can offer more money in a deal, sweetening the pot, for a player to want to accept a deal to another team willing to take that contract on.

Thread: Retooling for 2017

I watched almost every game last season and saw a team that was so offensively disfunctional on the ice for a majority of the games it's time to look at the players we have. The moves I would like to see is just moving expendable pieces. Read, Schenn, Filppula, Manning, and Raffl are not long term pieces to this team in my mind. Couturier, possibly, but if he has alot of value out there why not explore it. I may have undersold a deal for him.

Alot of people blame the coach for this team's rut.....problem is it's been the same rut for 3-4 different coaches with alot of the same players...why not blame the players they're playing the game, not the coaches.

Not many teams if any can afford to take on Jake's contract. $8 million is a hard pill to swallow for 7 more years...

Plus I am envisioning moves that will open up cap space. I'm curious to see what Hextall can/would do when he has more then $4 million in cap space to play with in an offseason.
