how much would you give up to move up and take Oliver Wahlstrom
- wcorvette

It is complete ultracrepidarianism to think that the Flyers should move up to select the unbarbigerous dandiprat Wahlstrom, and that not just currilous talk. However, should the Flyers decide to pursue the fainéant, I think that two malapert grimalkins and divers camelopards should get it done.

I get it.

But coming off the injuries this year I don't believe he'll come back and be able to avoid future injuries. Once you get one your tend to start getting more nicks and they seem to take longer to recover. Just my feeling.

His style of play doesn't lend himself to being protected from much. Especially if everyone wants to see the fighting, hitting, net front PP player.

If I am wrong, great. But I am not getting my hopes up for a huge resurgence.

It may be a feeling but there is nothing behind it. Hockey is a physical sport. No guarantee of avoiding injury but the flip side is there is nothing to say that he can't come back completely healthy.

I miss the days of hockey buzz arguments...

hey where is that old guy who started posting at the end of the season? The one who was overly fond of MJL?

I think you mean Grubauer's dad

I'm going to enjoy basking in the warmth of your rage when he does. It should cut down dramatically on my winter heating bills.

nice

Snow let go by the Isles. Gonna take a wild guess that he couldn't get a deal with Taveras done.
- hereticpride

Hopefully Tavares is the first star with balls to walk away from their franchise since before the cap was put in place. I mean bonafied superstar. With all the crap I heard about Steve Yzerman playing hard ball with Stamkos, I'm blown away Stammer didn't go home to Toronto.

So I was reading about the kid the Phils took at #3 and this kiddo can rake

28-39 K/BB ratio as a junior too. OBP .438. Can't complain

The last 3 #1 picks the Phil’s have made are killing it. Much confidence

14th and the 2nd?
- wcorvette

Yeah, I'd offer 14th overall and the 50th overall to EDM for 10th overall (and I'd try to get a mid rounder back as well).

That's if Farabee is on the board at 10. If there's a run on forwards early I'm not sure I make that move.

They'd better back the money trucks up for an outfielder with a bat this off-season.

JoeGreif? The 96 year old with 40 years of GM experience? He showed up the other day in Tanner's thread.

Sounds like an MJL guy

There was a documentary on NBCSN late night about the Czech national team winning olympic gold in 1998. I was too young to pay attention/care too much back then, but it was a well done documentary and was really awesome to watch vintage Hasek highlights. That guy was incredible
- YuenglingJagr

I saw it too. Great piece.

Hasek was the shiznits! Scary thing to consider: he was Ed Belfour's back up in Chicago before being traded to Buffalo. Imagine what Chicago could have received in return for Belfour in a trade instead, a king's ransom...

Any idea what it would take to get Hamilton from Calgary?

A package of picks and one of Sanheim or Myers.

He didn't want to play in Boston. He probably doesn't want to play here either.

Is he a west coast guy???

SB Nation gave that pick a “C” because Santana is currently at first for another 2 seasons, his defense is supposedly average and Rhys Hoskins for some reason, not elaborated upon. Great analysis!

Got my bladder full for both.

Knew the Flyers should have signed Oshie.
