Lot of starting goalies hurt atm. In my opinion the cost of a good backup right now is probably a little too high.

you're prob right. i'm grasping to think of ways we can get some help w/o expending too many assets.

Or getting ready to swing a massive trade. Or just a little one.

it opens up a spot on the team... trade probably headed our way.

What did we get?

That is the thing which keeps me from turning on him. Otherwise he's been a letdown the last month or so. Totally inconsistent.
- JoeRussomanno

i agree totally w/ Bill's assessment.

i can't help it...i hope BOS smokes the Pens...

Kimmo will be gone in a year and the FA market is so weak anyway. Keep him for next year. He is what he is.

Coburn, I might take offers at the draft just see what I could get... but it doesn't really make much sense to move the guy with Kimmo almost retired and Mezzy always getting hurt.
- hereticpride

Outside of bad penalties, I have no problem with Coburn. He has brought little offense for a number of seasons now. He is very good in his own end.

if they got a F/o guy and a better b/u goalie...these would be incremental changes that might not cost too much. one guy who may be available is adam hall...why not? b/u goalie, i'm open to suggestions because, despite my dissatisfaction w/ bryz, he does look spent the last couple of weeks.

I think the Flyers were really counting on Couturier in the face off department. The two veteran players that they brought in recently, as role players and to play on the PK. Fedetnko and Talbot. Neither are faceoff specialists. I'd like a 4th line guy who can take key defensive faceoffs. That is a need.

Coburn has show that he can be very good in his own end of the ice. But he hasn't shown he can be very much this year. He's been very disappointing. He's a player that can be much better then he has been.

I do wonder if he's feeling the pressure of having to be a bigger cog in the machine.

hall would fill the bill @ 650k, but not sure he's available.

Good thing I don't have one. I try to avoid spending money for the jerseys of poopty journeyman defensemen....

Could be. And to be honest, I'd like to see all of the defenseman on the team have more support. It's a very tough position to play regardless. Sometimes you try to do too much and struggle because of it. The defenseman on this team have to work awfully hard to get the puck out.

yes

As of right now he'll be a UFA after the Season.

What do you think causes the penalties?

We're getting Bob Ryab so the Ducks can afford Corey Purry, right?
