Cause Giroux is our number 1 center, and to have a guy like Schenn or Couturier, who are possible all-stars themselves as a number 3 is a waist of talent. Move 1 to wing next season, save the Richards, Carter, Giroux, Briere problem.

I'd move Briere to Wing.

As would I

If they don't get a guy like Couturier, then that trade definitely has a much different feel to it.
- funmaster18

it was still the 8th pick and we would have had a solid defenseman instead, something we could have used. It still would have been a decent pick, and we wouldnt be talking about getting a young defenseman right now, possibly.

If the Flyers are making a move and they will because they are the Flyers I expect it very soon.

now or the deadline, I take now

Fine for next year, but I would rather move one of them.

Crosby
Malkin
Staal
- Schenn2shine

You say that like they've won a cup with those centers or something.

I despise him.

I'd rather have Modry.
- archion113

You've gone to far.

Someone needed to talk to Modry about "Ole Bullpoop" when he was a flyer because he was a damn turnstile.

I want to be strong up the middle, especially on the defensive side of the puck.

me too, I was replying to someone that said IF WE DIDNT GET COOTS, ther carter trade would have been a flop. I was just saying it wouldnt necessarily.

Im hoping one of Schenn or JVR actually show there more then career 3rd line players

How is Giroux, Birere, Schenn, Talbot OR Giroux, Briere, Coots, Talbot not strong up the middle?

Yeah. It has been quiet so far this season, outside of the Cammalleri - Borque deal.

- Scottie Upshall

How can Schenn be a career anything? He's played 25 NHL games. JVR has already shown he can be more then a 3rd line player.

How is Giroux, Birere, Schenn, Talbot OR Giroux, Briere, Coots, Talbot not strong up the middle?
- RooNosHockey

The team would be stronger up the middle with Briere at Wing versus Center. There are some ifs involved there, as far as Schenn. Couturier, is definitely a Center.

This is what he said. "The trade of Carter for Jake and a pick was pretty weak return, the Flyers just got lucky as poop he fell that far,"

If Cooter didn't fall that far they may have take Dougie Hamilton who the Bruins picked after Cooter, that would have been fantastic as well IMO

Yes they would be stonger up the middle, but weaker at wings. I would rather give Giroux someone like Schenn to pass to in a few years, then have Schenn on the 3rd line passing to guys like Talbot and Zulnerczyk.

Exactly what I said, but I added that if that was the case then we might not be talking about making a trade for a young star defenseman right now...

What a phenomenal trade the Kessel deal was for Boston.

i think giroux and jvr will make magic together for the next decade
