I wonder if it will be a big blockbuster trade with St Louis,

They have 3 goalies and some very good defenseman... with Couts going back in a package deal of some sort
- Marc D

Couts Read Coburn 11

Pietrangelo Halak, Ian cole

Coburn for Gagner

Makes Schenn available for younger Dman somewhere else
- aosplayo

Probably would be more to it than that but I would like to get Gagner, we need a second line center.

i could definitely see it....I doubt it but AP would be a dream

I would rather have Eberle

Done

Me too for sure, I dont think Coburn would get that though by himself.

With our team i will take the younger option

If Wiggins was a certainty I would agree. What if they don't get Wiggins? They traded their best player, who is 23 for a project big man with an injury.

There will be plenty of good players in next years draft.

Besides they aren't going anywhere with Holiday either.

Noel will be fine. People in a panic over his knee b/c of the Bynum situation. Completely different scenario's.

They will be worse then that they are going full on tank mode
- griouxmvp2012

Worse than 14-68? You are talking historically bad. I don't know there are a lot of bad teams in the NBA. They only have one shot at Wiggins with their pick. The New Orleans pick they acquired is 1-5 protected.

He's not on the block

As constructed they weren't going anywhere. Keeping Holiday and building around him would have been the way to go. Holiday is a winning player on a good team.

If you take out AP and put in a newly signed Shatty then it becomes more likely

Reports Cal Clutterbuck available......... not really a need but Ive always liked that guy
- aosplayo

kind of a need. a very solid 3rd line winger

honestly, this is the type of thing that i'm terrified of

What does it mean that a draft pick is protected?

so the sixers get the #1 and #6 picks next year..not bad

The Sixers will be better in the long run.

Now back to hockey.

i was actually kidding

are we really talking about jordan eberle? the 23 year old with 156 points in 195 games? that jordan eberle? for coburn?

He's not on the block
- cfish99

Not saying he is, but if they want Coburn as bad as reported you got to ask for more then he is worth and use your position of strength.....hell i would ask about all their young fowards hall rnh etc.....not gonna happen but i would definitely ask....Coburn to EDM is all about getting the number 7 pick

It means if the pick they got from New Orleans turns out to be a top 5 pick, the Sixers don't get it.

the sixers will be the Miami heat of the east in a few years

They could have 1 and 6 in a deep deep draft and tons of space in a stacked fa class they are setting up to be crazy good in a few years

- PLindbergh31

so the sixers are skunked?

they get no compensation?

Coburn for RNH.

Sounds fair.

Alex Gologoski got Pittsburgh James Neal and Matt Niskanen.....Defensemen get a really high value so yes Jordan Eberle and I am serious....why not its silly season right maybe the Flyers can rob someone else for a change
