I agree for the most part, except I'm not sure Neal and JVR may not be available due to their teams still being in the playoff picture. Simmonds I would love, but unfortunately, I'm not sure our prospect strengths and lack of picks match up with what the Flyers needs are (they are strong on the backend and weaker up front, much like us) and of course they are just 4 points back of a playoff spot.Don't even care that much about the character issues. Just don't really think Kane is all that good. I'd inquire on Simmonds, Neal, JVR before him. Neal would still be my first choice, he's a UFA in the summer so if it doesn't work out the Flames can cut ties. Would be a great fit beside Monahan and Gaudreau.
Plus there's still a chance McPhee would want prospects over more picks.
Adding another 30 goal scorer would be a huge get for this hockey team. Ferland it doesn't matter where you play him in the lineup, he's either bringing it or he's not. If the cost is too much just phone up Jarome and trot em out for the PP
I think the teams most likely to be selling right now are the Sabres, Senators, Panthers, Red Wings, Coyotes, Avalanche and Canucks for the time being. That said the Golden Knights being an expansion team may be more interested in selling UFAs and adding assets.
