We make MJL an "A" so he can argue with the refs
And MOAT can take the agitator role.
Funmaster we'll give a can of mountain dew to and let him go...
BiggE is obviously D.

OMG I could do this ALL DAY!

Poor Bill would have to coach this mess...

Oh what fun.. Franchise Hockey Manager lets you make your own fictional teams and players.

I might have to putz around with this and see what sort of mayhem I can create.

MacDonald + Vinny for Campbell makes sense. They can't get free agents to sign with them and stay there so we send them two guys locked up for 10 years.
- Feanor


God bless them if they make that deal, because Vinny can't keep up,with those kids down there.

Maybe they think he can help mentor Jonathan Huberdeau, and I do understand the theory behind that, but i'll tell you what: If the Flyers pulled off that deal, i'd dance in the streets

History would seem to suggest that you won't be able to convince FLA to move back any further than 3-4... so the costly part would actually be convincing BUF, EDM or CGY to move back first, then use their pick to make a stab at 1.

It's almost pointless to talk about, it's so farfetched.

price would be too high, but I could see Florida accepting Coburn, Schenn and #17 for #1 and Campbell.

True, but if I am Florida who seems on the cusp of contention getting another draft pick is not as helpful as one or two sure things which make us better next year. Also, it would send the message to free agents that they are ready next year since the owner gave them the green light to spend and its a good free agent class.

This deal would make me want to set something on fire -- the Flyers would be trading two roster pieces under 30 -- one under 24 years old -- for a 35-year-old defenseman with a $7 million cap hit and a pick who might not see the NHL in years?

The Flyers control Brayden Schenn's rights for five more years, and Coburn is signed for two more years and is younger, bigger and better defensively than Campbell. Amd who is gonna play 2C? Vinny? If you move Couturier up, who is gonna stop us from getting scored on at will, since Coburn's gone?

That deal...would we just not want to make the playoffs? I would truly want to set something on effing fire if that went down

I totally agree which is why Florida would do it. the price to get the #1 pick is too high, IMO.

Take out our pick, swap Campbell for Howden and I'd do it.
