I am a much bigger fan of Silfverberg, mostly because of how often people will pronounce and spell his name. And no I dont think any college UFA signing will stop Laughton from reaching his potential.

Id love to add silfverberg to this team. would be a complement to the second line. and also another weapon the 2nd pp unit, or gives us an option to break up the 1st unit, and even out the skill on both units.

How do you feel about the low shot totals and the lack of forward scoring?

1) I signed Perron in NHL16 he works great with Schenn and Couts

2) I actually saw an article the other day; one of those "15 trades that could happen" and it had the flyers trading Streit (half retained) a pick and maybe a prospect for Silfverbrg.

Concerning Joe Paw-velski (the cat):

All of the stories I've read, for the most part, talk about how the cat got onto the ice. But from the video I've seen, a guy on the bench picked the cat up and put him on the ice. It then ran past both benches and into the tunnel. So...why did the dude put a cat onto the ice?

I hate Perron and solely did it for experimental purposes. Usually no FA would sign with my team but for this one rare instance both him and Boedker signed with me. My work as a GM has been remarkable, even wth the cap in full force. The following offseason I managed to snag Tyler Johnson and offer sheeted Draisaitl. I also flipped Perron the same year I signed him... I eventually had to trade G

What was the return? Who became captain and what happened to the locker room chemistry? What was said about him in the papers after the trade? How soon did he win a Stanley Cup? Did they cheer or boo him the first came back?

Congrats to Gostisbehere on the nomination, he is very deserving. I think it will go to Panarin though, who is also very deserving. I don't think the Flyers would've made the playoffs without the offensive jolt Gostisbehere added, and I think he's going to get even better.

After careful rewatching of the 1998 Orioles/Yankess brawl, I am voting for Darryl Strawberry this November.

I traded him at age 31 or 32 I believe with my 1st rounder to move to #1 or #2 can't exactly remember. But I solely moved him to afford Provorov who commanded $10 M per year. I don't blame him being 22 and a Franchise Dman 96 overall. The game automatically gave captaincy to Ivan even though I was gonna give it anyways. I actually haven't started playing the season yet just made the moves to afford Provorov, Travis, Morin, and someone else. Locker room chemistry is at an all time low currently and understandably so. But the fans should be happy as we just came off a Cup victory.

Silfverberg is definitely somebody we should be looking into if available. He's young(25), already a solid two way player, can produce on either wing (natural RW), and Anaheim appears to be willing to make some big changes to the roster.

I believe the offer somebody else posted was Streit, a pick and a prospect. I think the best deal for us would be Streit, Cousins, and a 3rd. I think the deal eventually ends up something like Streit, Laughton/Leier, and a 2nd. Which still seems a little optimistic.

Silfverberg's contract is 3 more years at 3.75m. Could we retain some salary on Streit's contact?

I think Panarin wins it....But I am hoping for and think Ghost deserves it just as much...for many of the reason's already stated....Had Mcjesus played all year he would have walked away with it...but I'm not sure 1/2 the season gets you a major award.

The team will suffer, winning games to the tune of 8-3 as opposed to 13-2.

I cant see any team trading for Streit at this time. I could see it at the deadline if he has still proven to be productive and to a team that could use a little extra offense from the back end for their 3rd pair in a playoff push.

Other than that, I'm not sure as the receiving team I would be dealing for him. He seems cooked to me.

But hey, what do I know.
