Make what Weber deal? You don't have enough to acquire him. Don't say one of the Schenns and the next Ron Francis either. That isn't close to being enough.

On a side note, would have been cool if Hunter was the coach for the Caps. Berube v. Hunter would have been a great way to finish off the night.

We'll have to pull a Pittsburgh and be horrible for a decade to stock up on top first round picks.

Thanks for your input.

Would you trade Morin and a couple of firsts for Seth Jones?

He's 19 years old, 6'4", playing 30 minutes a night, is on an entry level contract, and has huge upside.

I don't know what Morin's going to turn into 5 years down the road but Seth Jones, today, is better than anything on the Flyers roster or anything they have coming up in the next 2 years.

i would have just lost the last few gmaes of the season and drafted him for free

Welcome to Philly. Where Free Agency is the farm.
- hereticpride

He isn't a free agent. Unless you are talking about Mike Weber or Yannick Weber. You can afford to get either.

There's nothing honourable about punching a guy in the back of the head when he's down but that's the Flyers for you.

Move over Buffalo, you have some company.

isnt it fun being a Toronto fan not getting trolled for a change?

This is what I am most curious about from Flyers fans. Is Giroux still considered untouchable?
- Genev21

The only way I get him is if you get a player back that has basically averaged a point a game for the past 3 seasons and has 55 points in 50 playoff games.

Giroux is not the problem.
The problem is short of Voracek, no one else on the team has any real dynamic offensive skills..
Oh and our defense sucks..

Yeah, because Emery = the honor of the Flyers.

I wouldn't move him, but others will disagree. I think he's a solid piece to build around, but isn't good enough to do it all by himself. With a well build team, he'll be back to form. First career crisis and some aren't willing to let him work through it.

Or 4 years, but hey.... who needs counting. Not like they were in the ECF in 2001 or any... whoa... never mind. They were.

Some combo of BSchenn, Coots, Jake and picks for Weber. Fill those holes in FA.

Giroux is not the problem? Considering the Phoenix goalie has more goals than Claude and a rookie that has played three games in Pittsburgh has more ... I'd say he is a major disappointment.

for a Pitts fan you have alot of interest in the Flyers?

I think he means we don't have the prospects to make a big move because we draft poopty and build through free agency instead

you are right..10 games and not 3 years is an adequate comparison.

- hereticpride

Coots? LOL. Nothing like taking a fourth line center that has regressed. BSchenn ... LOL.

Seriously, you have to do better than giving up that. Voracek, picks and what?

What decade was that? 2 cups and 2 other ECF in the 90s. 2 finals 1 cup and 1 other ECF from 2000-2010. The 80s weren't a great decade but they were decent by the end and besides all those players from the 80's are retired.

Emery and that ref that let him attack Holtby like that should be suspended.

He wasn't good either last year. Don't kid yourself.

Read can flat out snipe but they seem content keeping him in a more defensive role.

hey come on now, those wins were great for the morale and went a long ways in building team chemistry.

For Shea Weber? Even your playstation would reject that trade.

So assuming this team goes through a major rebuild the major pillars you want kept are Giroux and Voracek and the rest can kick rocks?

Also just curious but how has Streit been for you guys? Thought it was a bad signing when it happened, curious to see how he has played.

That's rich coming from a Leafs fan, because you guys are all class. Maybe we should take pictures pretending to be a player that is being taken of the ice on a stretcher.
