If Schenn, Read and Bourdon gets Bobby Ryan in return then Holmgren shouldn't hesitate at all, in my opinion.  

Ryan-Giroux-Simmonds
Hartnell-Briere-Voracek
vanRiemsdyk-Couturier-Wellwod
Rinaldo-Talbot-FA/??

Jagr coming back isn't out the window either.  If he comes back, he could play alongside Briere and Hartnell.  Or they could keep this set up and go with a guy like Travis Moen or David Moss for the 4th line.

There's no way in hell you give that up for Bobby Ryan. Bobby Ryan is not a star player. He is not that good to command that return.

I don't care what the Flyers gave up for Lindros or that he never won us a cup...I just feel lucky that I got to watch him in his prime in Philly for a few years.

Loved when he would destroy a guy on the faceoff.

These rumors never end...

Flyers would never win the lottery. It's fixed

I hear you Mook. Don't you think it's time for JVR to step up and become that perennial 30 goal scorer power forward?

We all know how "patient" the Flyers can be. These next few days will be crazy to ay the least. After the awards ceremony I think guys will start getting moved. This could be an interesting year. I think some teams on the brink may try to trade to get some fresh new pieces while s ome others will try and break the bank for that "superstar". I can see Toronto and N.Y. trying to make a big splash. I for one am excitied, make it rain trade muther (frank)ers!

The Flyers love Nash but that's too much IMO.

I'm about 75% convinced JVR is going to be traded for pennies on the dollar, and it will be a trade the Flyers regret. The damage will be immeasurable, immense.

I agree.. He is a heck of a player, and would be a great addition, but not for Read and Schenn. Hell Schenn himself might should be a 30-30 guy in the not to far future.
