We don't need two-way defenseman?
- PhillySportsGuy

we have a few two-way defensemen. And if we need more, and are going to pay a guy nearly $5M for more than 3 years, which is what is being bandied about, I want more than Andy MacDonald. We need to get rid of our one dimensional shot blocking, hot-potato defenseman and pick up some real talent. And we need to use our assets in a smart way to better achieve that.

So who should they get? Name specific trade targets or free agents. It's easy to say what we need. I want to hear about how we get them.

I have to admit these guys suck me into the dark side vortex. And I am forced whether I want to or not to actually retain some info to stay an informed fan.
You have no excuse

holmgren just doesn't (frank)ing get it

How does gillis still have a job? Now they don't have Schneider or luongo and TBH not much to show for it.

At least he is under 30. I believe.

overall the situation was a disaster. but i think given what had already transpired, this haul for luongo is a good one. granted, hes making the best of a bad situation that he created, but not bad damage control.

- PhillySportsGuy

it's just as easy to sit here and comment on the trade that they did make. I could list names (Ehrhoff, Edler, Yandle, etc.; or seek less experienced guys like Vatanen who is allegedly on the block), and of course they would cost more, but if I'm making moves for a dman, those are the moves I am exploring. Andrew MacDonald is a free agent this year. He is not the piece (I don't think and lord know I hope I'm wrong) that will get them over any kind of hump. They did not need to trade a 2nd and a 3rd for him right now imo.

at this point though, they did and I'm a fan of the Flyers and so I hope it was a good move.

giving up 2 picks for spare parts
didn't work out for grossman
didn't work out for kubina
and so on

why not keep those (frank)ing picks and draft your own players

You are not brought upon this world to GET IT, mr. Burton!
