GDT: #38 | FLYERS (H) vs. Bruins (A) | Tuesday, Apr. 6, 2021 | 7:00 pm ET | SN360, NBCSP, NESNplus

Seattle 100% could take Braun with the intention of trading him to a contender. Not everyone they will take will be for their roster.

Select him, flip him for a 2nd either in the offseason...or at the deadline. We know how RHD are hard to find.

I do think lots of better players with higher cap hits AND TERM will be passed over unless teams give an "incentive" to take them.

Seattle could take Braun; look at all the dmen Vegas took last time.

They should be able to keep Morin if they want him. It's been an arduous ordeal, but Morin has finally gotten to this point he shouldn't want to disrupt the progress he's finally made by having to start over with a new organization that doesn't know him.

True, he has sweat equity with the Flyers. They know how hard he worked to come back. He'll just be another guy anywhere else. I hope he stays, healthy and a Flyer.

especially because if they take...say 10 Dmen....there could be 10 teams looking to trade for him to replace what they lost...lol.

And to some, he would be an upgrade.

 

[Curufinwe]

What if Morin keeps improving (and they don't screw up and trade for a dfenseman)? Who do you protect?

They have 19 games left and Morin will probably be benched when Hagg is healthy.

 

[FMichael]

Outsider here...Was a great game last night...Playoff atmosphere...Hoping for the same tonight.

 

[GKJ]

They have 19 games left and Morin will probably be benched when Hagg is healthy.

If Morin is still playing fine, I don't think they'll sit him for Hagg.

Morin-Hagg 3rd pairing here we go.

 

[mja]

I think AV mostly sees Hagg for what he is, he just struggles to see Ghost as anything other than a weakling fancy boy, so I don't think it's a given that Hagg dresses when healthy if Morin continues to show that he can hack it. His size and the potential of a soupcon of emotion / intimidation are going to be appealing to hockey guys.

 

[GKJ]

Morin-Hagg 3rd pairing here we go.

I don't think that'll happen either unless they have to. AV seems pretty locked in on RHD playing right side or if they're LHD, having had done it before (Ghost, Gus, Provorov at times). If the ship is steadying, he's not going to want to change the lineup just because either.

exactly. trade him now. I don't want to roll this same d next year and its looking like we damn well are. I cant stand another year of braun and hagg in the lineup at the same time.

 

[bobbythebrain]

Big game tonite. Guess we'll see if we ruined Hart permanently

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Rather have Raffl out.

 

[Tripod]

Rather have Raffl out.

(Rather have Raffl traded)

 

[CutOnDime97]

Rather have Raffl out.

Yeah that sucks. Tanner was playing well.

 

[Tripod]

We will be keeping Braun because we want to ADD a RHD. Fletch won't willingly go into next year needed 2 RHD.

 

[FlyTimmo]

Lame

 

[mr4tno]

Rather have Raffl out.

Same here. Laczynski needs reps; Raffl is toast. But this is classic Flyers management that has brought us 45 years a mediocrity

 

[swami24]

I hope Jake is reading this. He has had his fair share of, uhm, entertaining presser moments.

Nobody was better in a presser than Pronger. The one time I met him, I told him that no one was better than running a presser than him. He got a huge sly grin, and said, they are fun.

 

[bennysflyers16]

Tanner seemed like a guy AV would like, oh well, all for making the lineup weaker

 

[Magua]

I cannot wait to see Hagg find his way into the defense rotation.

Exactly what I was thinking. Morin checks the dinosaur "physical/fighter" box with a mile-wide Sharpie. And I'm fine with Morin as a sub-million-dollar 6/7 as long as he can play decent 3rd-pairing defense and switch out with York. Optimally, he stays with Gostisbehere as a Mutt-and-Jeff 3rd pairing once that shiny new 1RD sets up shop.

a bunch of players play on the right side. I would rather have someone better who is a lhd play than braun. Oleksiak, montour, Martinez..would rather we just change this shit up lol

 

[Fight4yourRight]

Big Sam needs to keep his head up though. He’s a target bc of his mean streak and because he retaliates. He has a tendency to put his head down and or hold onto it that second longer. He got lit up by Pasta last night of all people. For a guy with his injury luck, he’ll need to change that about his game and play it smart like Pronger. And yes. I realize he’ll never be Pronger.

 

[Stizzle]

I'm happy that Oskar is back, but choosing Tanner to sit is bullocks.

 

[Here4ThaLids]

Sammy better bank a few fights while he can! Ghost, too.
