I hope Homer's phones broken, just what we need to do - trade our best Dman prospect.....we should be trying to ACQUIRE young Dmen, like every other team
Id be willing to let a lot go for Pacioretty at 4.5mill for 4-5 years. Morin is not going anywhere though.
I come in peace
Question: What do you guys think of Josh Gorges? I thought he might be a good fit with you.
The Flyers brass will not move Morin. Even though MTL would inquire about that deal.
If Hartnell+Mez were heading to the Habs for MaxPac I'd be more than ok with that, BUT anything other than that no thank you
I wouldn't mind moving morin if they threw in Beaulieu. Something like the Schenns + Morin + 2nd rd pick for Pacioretty + Beaulieu.
I'd pull the trigger on Hartnell and B. Schenn for Max Pac.
Here is where having junk at the AHL level is killing the Flyers. The could make a large move and trade two roster forwards but that would put them in a precarious situation the rest of the year. The Pronger trade plus all the 2nd and 3rd picks moved for ill begotten cup runs are hurting this team bad int he present.
I bet we all would be underwhelmed with the return if Maxpac is moved. We all over value our guys big time. He won't get more than Ryan got the ducks. Regardless of contract
The ahl team is in the best shape in years. Its not great but improving big time. Two years ago was nothing but junk, but now they have some solid pieces down there. Not saying NHL stars but they have talent now that will eventually make the NHL in one way or another.
Don't forget the giant woody Paul Holmgren had for Luca Sbisa. No one here is untouchable.
I like your optimism but top 6 forwards dominate the AHL at about or close to a point per game pace. The only forward on the roster that is close is Akeson and he is a Ryan Potulny clone. The phantoms as a team are one of the lowest scoring in the entire league with Bordson, vandevelde, and Newbury the next three leading scorers after Akeson. I have hope for Straka and Cousins as they are only at about 25 games into their professional careers but the early returns aren't good. Hopefully I am wrong but statistically the forward crop on the phantoms does look to have any top 6 forwards on it.
