2020/21 Roster Thread X: Chuck's time to shine

[BernieParent]

Am I gonna watch the 3rd period, or will I try cleaning dog poop in the dark

To-MA-to, to-MAHH-to

To-MA-to, to-MAHH-to

tOO-MAH, TOO-murr

tOO-MAH, TOO-murr

Or the fancy, TYEW-murr for "in the know" people. Also, I tried to pronounce your first one and hurt myself.

Spit balling a trade possibility.
To Phila: Seth Jones
To Columbus: Myers, Patrick, and 2021 #1 pick, (Hagg too if they will take him - they will need to replace some D this off season)
What else do the Flyers need to add?

This solves the Flyers RHD and #1 Dman issues. Frost replaces Patrick in the lineup. D looks like this:
Provy - Jones
Sanheim - Braun
Morin - York or Ghost if still here

 

[Rebels57]

This will go well. ^

I am curious. I know it kicks over the nest. I don't know what it will take to get the job done. It will take more than the 3 pieces (plus Hagg who is filler). Columbus can use a center. They might be willing to take a chance on Patrick's pedigree upside. Myers is also an upside player and a RHD to pair with Werenski, filling in Jones's spot (downgrade there but other additions), the number 1 will be necessary, as will something else. I just can't put my finger on what else. Jones will be on his last year of his contract. It will be a good time to move him for the CBJs.

From what I have seen here, and i'm no authority on the topic, the metrics suggest Seth Jones is not good defensively and a lot of people consider him the most overrated player in the NHL. Many of those people post here. I'm not great with presenting the necessary graphs and charts here because I don't know where to find them / don't want to become a patreon to any of these nerds lol.

I wonder if Provy might be better defensively with an offensive partner.

 

[TCTC]

I think we've seen last season (and this season) that Provy meshes better with a defensive partner. Jones would be the perfect partner for him, imo. He's the perfect partner for Werenski and Provy and Werenski are similar players.

I'm gonna have to disagree

 

[Starat327]

I have absolutely zero interest in paying to acquire Seth Jones. Be it via trade, or UFA contract.

 

[flyersnorth]

I would guess that Hamilton will be (or should be) the primary target this offseason. He's a UFA, #1 defenseman. Find a way to make him a Flyer.

I'm guessing Seattle has first dibs at negotiations.

I hate expansion. There are too many teams as it is... we don't need more.

 

[Yukon Cornelius]

Wait a minute....the Flyers signed a guy named Jack Cates?

 

[TB87]

I.....want no parts of Seth Jones. He trips himself up a lot in the defensive zone due to his poor defensive skating mechanics.

Seth Jones' Achilles Heel


I have no clue why more people haven’t noticed this glaring weakness in his game. It’s a big issue.

Fair enough.

I'm not a huge Hamilton fan, tbh. He's a good player and he would improve us, but I'm not sure he's the kind of player we should be looking for.

What are the thoughts on Provorov’s contract?

Seems like the most moveable of the high cap share guys with term. Not sure if he has much upside to provide surplus value.

 

[Beef Invictus]

If you want to know who we are signing this off-season just go scan old Wild rosters, pick the shittiest player who isn't Stewart or Prosser, and there you go.

Our big coaching change will be fitting Prosser into the staff somewhere

 

[FlyTimmo]

Fair enough.

Werenski is more of a Sanheim than Provorov, IMO.
