Seriously. I shudder at the idea of the 15-16 Flyers D without MDZ.

I hate this team
Bruins fan here looking for some feedback on a trade proposal, I see you may be looking to trade Scheen , well I just proposed on our boards this trade involving said player. so here goes.............
To Philly: Lucic 33% retained/Smith/ Boston’s 14OA and 37 OA 2015
To Boston: Simmonds,Schenn,Philly 7th OA 2015
Philly gets legit LW to play on 1st line with 33% retained (cap reasons)
Smith to replace Simmonds on 2nd line
14th and 37th pick
Boston gets legit 2nd line RW with some grit on good contract
2nd pair D
7 OA
Our side seems to think it's fair , what do you think?

Nope, Lucic is a pending UFA next year. I like Lucic a lot but he's the type of player that teams overpay for in free agency even though it's not a good idea given the wear & tear that comes with the style of play they play while approaching their 30's.
Simmonds will be in the same boat when his contract runs up in 2018-2019.

Easy no.
We only need to move Simmonds if it gets us a young dman or LW with as much value as Simmonds.

I do want to commend you on a reasonable and well thought out trade proposal. However, I would agree on the drawback of Lucic being a UFA. Wihle I'm not a big fan of his so I'm biased, Lucic on Giroux's left with Voracek running on RW would be quite the line.

In all fairness, it's logical to have doubts over MDZ's sustainability. He was God awful in 2013-14 and inconsistent before that. It's totally possible that he'll regress back to mediocrity.

Probably not an unreasonable proposal but no from me. I prefer Simmonds to Lucic and our #7 to your #14. Those two considerations outweigh the rest for me. I'd rather draft Crouse or Werenski/Provorov with the #7.

Let's not go crazy...
one poster said it was fair, and one said "not bad". The others who posted are saying the same thing we are "lucic is a UFA, philly says no".
OP was saying that his side (Bruins fans) think it's fair. I didn't realize Lucic's pending UFA status so that makes it much less reasonable for me. Easy no for the Flyers.

Lucic isn't going to produce enough more than Michael Raffl (who potted 20 in his 2nd season and is a better defensive player) to offset the drop-off in production/toughness/heart/leadership from Smith to Simmonds. Then you factor in Lucic as a Pending UFA and it makes it worse.
Moving our 7th for 14th and 37th to get rid of Schenn is brutal on our part. No chance in hell.
Pretty terrible trade for the Flyers overall.

Easy no.
Simmonds > Lucic (plus simmonds contract)
Schenn will have value at the trade deadline. And to move down 7# to 14# for another 2nd round pick..
Could move to #10 for a 2nd.. and keep the better players on nicer contracts
Hexy isn't going to overpay for a 30 something old winger. We're going to have to be patient with this entire process. Beleskey is the only one I see worth targeting in FA but he'll either stay in ANA or demand too much. He'll draft a players to fullfil our need for forwards and scoring.
I don't think its a good idea for Morin to start in the NHL. His defensive game needs some more work. I could see Ghost, Hagg or Manning starting with the Flyers.
I'm not that big of a fan of Burmistrov. Maybe as a bottom 6 guy but I wouldn't pay much for him. He's a bust, had 1 PPG season and that was in the O and kind of a floater. They may give Straka or Martel (although a rookie, he has tremendous skill) a shot in the bottom 6.
Mutual contract termination seems like the most logical for both parties, Vinny gets to choose a new team and Philly rids themselves of that contract.
They'll probably really try to move MacD. With such a lack of D available in FA, there may be a team willing to bite. Streit has been a mentor to Morin, as well as being one of the better dmen, so I believe they'll keep him. Just pray Umberger can put up some points next year and Hexy can fleece another GM at the deadline.

What about something like L.Schenn for Loui Eriksson? Both have 1 year left, so no real risk....we swap an extra D for a vet LW.
