Wayne Simmonds

[Jtown]

I hope its a first in 2020. I’d be trying to get out of this draft

 

[Rebels57]

Then Fletcher should be fired if that means he intends to re-sign him to a likely awful contract

Nah I dont think they re-sign him regardless.

 

[Rebels57]

We saw last night, that the Flyers are so much more entertaining when we play with emotion. But we don't need Simmonds for that. We need EVERYONE to finish checks. We saw Ghost smoke a guy. We saw a bit of angry Jake. We NEED Konecny to get back to that agitating guy. It's a TEAM ATTITUDE that we need.

We 100% took on Hak's personality and it was awful. Hopefully under the next coach, we become more like the real Flyers.

Hak "We had a lot of wasted emotion that we needed to get rid of."

What a f***ing loser.

Losing him for nothing is just as bad

I love angry Jake. He’s like a completely different player when he’s mad.

Sorry Benny.

Yeah, I consider a late first in ‘19 like a late first in Laughton’s draft. Not exciting.

I agree with you, I just feel like as fans we want the right things for the team and know how to get the team there but the franchise is still way behind what works and I was kind of just making my peace with the fact that Simmer could be resigned

What do people think Simmer will get signed for next season?

4 x $4mil?
Close to it, in term or $$ terms?
More?
Less?

Some scoring (and coincidentally some tenure comparables), just picked next 5 players from NHL points stats:

Simmer 62-16-11-27
Nick Foligno - CBJ - 56-15-12-27 $5.5 mil
Patric Hornqvist PIT 49-15-12-27 $5.3 mil
Nick Bonino NAS 63 14-13-27 $4.1mil
JT Compher COL 46 14-13-27 $925K
Zach Hyman TOR 51-13-14-27 $2.25 Mil

 

[Nabrules]

Sure seems like Simmonds will go for a couple picks after seeing what Zuccerello and Nyquist got back in return

Been saying this for 4 years.

X 1000

What a difference watching them play with attitude. It brought a tear to my eye. This has been missing for too long.

Thanks Hak you beet headed turd.

That usually brings more conditions. We've seen 2 big examples this decade from desperate teams who did that and got burned, which nearly included us.
