Maybe he'll play for free. For the love of the game

What you're asking me is moot. It doesn't matter.

I don't want Schenn traded but I do want to see that
- AllInForFlyers

Schenn-Read might be a nice thing, too.

If the crux of the argument revolves around price then I feel it's of the upmost importance.

That's the thing. I think if given a good, long shot at LW, and left their, with consistent linemates, who fit his strengths, Schenn could be a good winger.
- Jsaquella

True dat boo. I know we need two wingers though. At least one if not two d-men. We have a strong core that I really like. I think Hexy is going to make some good decisions. But when you have no where to go but up, like Homer did in the beginning, your moves all look good. I want him to make the tough decision to not bring in really any big name. Let the kids play. We all have some guys we wold love to see on this team(Nash ), but I know a guy like Moulson is a better fit then a Nash or a Gaborik. Cap and years wise.

I didn't love him on the wing, but maybe with another center...a playmaker with some speed...we'd need to bring that guy in, though
- AllInForFlyers

Try him with Couturier and Read. That could be interesting.

They do need pieces, andOutside of trying to land a number one defenseman, I'm perfectly fine with minor moves like adding Bellemare. I want low cost, low risk unless you're filling a big, pressing need.

And here comes another loop in another circle of the same argument. It's like you're only half hearing what I'm saying. If the price isn't right, Ott doesn't come to Philly.

That's really what it comes down to with Ott. He's one of those upper echelon role players that can command more money. In my opinion, the Flyers can't afford him.

Schenn-Read might be a nice thing, too.

The holy grail for me is finding someone who can hold their own with Giroux so you could get Schenn-Voracek -- man, I'm telling anybody who will listen that that would be explosive

I wouldn't call Montreal's defense "amazing." I give PK Subban all the credit in the world, but I simply do not believe that Josh Gorges, Andrei Markov, Mike Weaver, Alexei Emelin and Francois Bouillon are better than what we have.

They're not. Those other five guys are not one bit better than what the Flyers have.

Just goes to show the absolute need for a stud #1 dman

Might be late, but the Avalanche have re-signed Jamie McGinn to a 2 year extension

It doesn't matter if they can afford him. Will he bleed orange and black?

I promise I see your point, but the thing about it is Montreal drafted the guy, in the second round.

We shouldn't be afraid to give our guys we drafted the opportunity to become that kind of player, because you just can't pry these guys from other organizations

Great! He'll be able to afford to take care of his brother.

couts and simmonds have had chemistry in the past i have nooo problem trying them together

This is true. Flyers should take a hard look at this

In other news, Dreger is saying that the Pens coaching search is down to one guy and it's Willie Desjardins. He's done a very good job in the AHL for the Stars.

He's a UFA. He bleeds green.

nooo they can't take him! I still have this from when we were looking at new coaches

Is Ott a legit two-way bottom sixer? Or is he just more of an enforcer grinder? Cause his +/- was messed up last year to the point where I thought it suggested poor defensive play, like with Ovechkin.

The fans will love him
- PhillySportsGuy

and so will the refs

Just so we're on the same page. Do we like Grinders on this team and if we do, who is the closest player we have to a grinder on this team currently under contract? Just for my information.
