Is Simmonds coming with a time machine and some sensu beans for his broken down body?

 

[Flukeshot]

Are they not expecting Ferland back?

 

[north49er]

The Canucks are headed up, no need for a down turn.

 

[Canucks5551]

Are they not expecting Ferland back?

He was supposed to go to Utica earlier this week, but got delayed for an unknown reason.

 

[Nucker42]

He was supposed to go to Utica earlier this week, but got delayed for an unknown reason.

He got delayed because Utica only played one game this week. Makes sense.

 

[Duodenum]

Harddddddddd pass.

 

[Canucks LB]

Njd fans.
Can he still skate? Would a third get it done?

 

[Brodeur]

Can he still skate? Would a third get it done?

Late 3rd sounds plausible, same ballpark as what Carl Hagelin fetched last year.

 

[Flyer lurker]

1) if he wants to stay on east um Canucks aren't exactly east. Simmons was cooked last year. There are a bunch of players who will get a 2 on trade market before Simmons. 3 and 5 feels closer.

 

[Bertuzzzi44]

Ferland is good to go finally! Heading to Utica for a conditioning stint.

[Static]

Why?

 

[Canadian Canuck]

Baertschi+4th most I do

 

[Mickey Marner]

Don't be dim, Jim. He's an ES liability, has been for years.

Edit.

2016-17 to present at 5v5

1.15 P/60
41.3 GF%

Just atrocious.

 

[Frankie Blueberries]

This doesn't make too much sense given our forward depth. Even if both Ferland and Motte are out for the rest of the year, Leivo should be back before the playoffs.

A bottom 6 of:

Roussel - Gaudette - Virtanen/Leivo
Schaller/MacEwan - Beagle - Sutter

is fine to roll with.

If we need top 6 help, I'd rather just give Baer or Goldobin another shot than give up an asset for a player who clearly has lost a step.

[bruins4thecup65]

Simmonds value is a mid round pick these days

 

[Phrazer]

Erikson + 2nd.

 

[Bettman Returnz]

Schaller or baertschi + conditional pick of some sort?

 

[TT1]

but why?

 

[benedictTavares]

Simmonds lol

 

[Jerzey Devil]

I’d be happy with a 3rd, fine with a 4th for Simmonds.

Don't really see why this is getting so much shade. Simmonds on a good team is a .5 ppg mid six guy with a physical presence. He has an expiring contract, and the ask is not a likely to be too high. It's a low risk potentially mid-reward move.

Schaller or baertschi + conditional pick of some sort?

Why are the Devils taking back a cap dump for an expiring contract?
