It could be that you guys just overachieved last year.. how many people had career years? Who expected Talbot to pot over 20?

Schenn and Cooter are having a very rough fall from last year.

But it's only been 3 games... it'll probably hit level again.

I think 2 angles I'd explore are Coots for Subban (assuming LTC was worked out beforehand) and something along the lines of Jake + Read for Bobby Ryan. I think this helps on a lot of fronts. Ryan is the sniper Giroux could use and provides physical play and leadership. Subban is the potential #1 guy on D that can shoot and move the puck.

Hartsy-Giroux-Ryan
Schenn-Briere-Simmonds
Fedo-Laughton-Wellwood
Sestito-Talbot-Rinaldo

Subban-Coby
Kimmo-Grossmann
Mez-Schenn


I think we'd still be deep enough at forward and it opens up a spot to bring up another energy player like Sestito full time. JMO

I like Subban. I like Ryan. I don't like those moves at all.


Make a move on D if it's there and doesn't cost the moon.
Hope you get Ryan as a free agent one day. It just doesnt make sense to trade for him.
Gun for Perry and re-shape the D in the offseason.

I'm probably going to get hammered for this, but it seems Luke Schenn had an okay game. I'm not sure why Leaf nation hates him so much.

Ok, Positive energy. Looking forward how do the Flyers build on that with the least impact on the O. Talking 2,3 years here no mortgage of the future.

The only way to not mortgage any part of the future is to draft a player. Which takes development time.
