ssshhh I'm trying to use my Jedi mindtrick on Poile to take Mezaros instead...
- JoeRussomanno


the way he handled Suter, it might work.

He could offer Weber $10 mill a year for 15 years, Weber would say ummmm, I'll let you know next year, and Poile would wait on it.

Did he really think Suter was going to go to free agency & come back?
He mismanaged that big time.

#Flyers may have offered Voracek, Gustafsson, Laughton and a 1st rounder to #Ducks for Bobby Ryan. Looking into it. Wow!

I want Sbisa back for all that. And I want him back just because he's cool. I don't know if it'd really even up that trade or not

I'd have to pull back either Laughton, or the 1st round pick. That's too much.

No

we already have 3 centers under 24 years of age moving forward, excluding (Laughton)

the coaching staff considers Gus a #7 or 8 D man

Voracek & a #1 pick, your only losing Jake on the current roster, bad trade????

I'll pull back Voracek, thank you very much.

On second thought, I'd like to pull everyone back and say that the Ducks are crazy....

2nd wouldn't sway me on that. The odds of a 2nd round pick being anything is low.

Once B Schenn or Couturier are moved for Weber you'll need Laughton

Yes. Because of Voracek.

Don't want to see him moved.

I don't want to see anyone moved.

I would ask for a 2nd back. You know homer can't have two 2nds in his pocket. Another trade!

In that proposal, by giving up Laughton you basically are giving up two first round picks.

That's horrific. Holmgren should be given paper cuts on the balls if he considers that.

you do realize not all of the players on the roster will finish their careers as flyers right?

Thank you! I wasn't going to go that drastic. But it illustrates the point well.

Oh I agree I'm just saying last week the price (according to Manayunk) was ridiculously high now this?

I like Laughton. Keep the kid.

Just for a reminder, Carter got the Flyers a 1st and Voracek.

Voracek who was for the most part kind of a risk.

Is Ryan that much better than Carter? Ryan's defensive game is questionable, he wouldnt even be on my radar.
