Into what role as a coach? AHL? Bench coach?
On the Flyers and Leafs...
I am told the Leafs have big interest in Brayden Schenn and Couturier, and could offer up defensive help if the Flyers were to choose to head that way. I would not at all be shocked to see a move in that direction sooner than later...
Probably just to laugh at the stuff Ek is saying. That's why I stop by most of the time.
Eklund is so full of it.
The leafs need D help pretty badly. Doesn't make any sense. The only D-men I could see them getting rid of would be Gardiner or Phaneuf. Obviously Franson would be a rental and were not in the playoff picture so that wouldn't happen. Doubt the Flyers would ever trade for Phaneuf. I don't know why I go to HockeyBuzz anymore.
Kimo is supposed to get tested by Friday to see if his condition has improved enough to allow him to play. He has said that he wants to retire as a Flyer so I don't think that he'd come back to allow himself to be traded. It could be that if he can play that the door would be open to move Streit. Kimo would be the vet to keep the defense together as the youngsters start to fill in for the traded veterans.
He also said that he is open to coaching. It would be great to have him in the Flyers system for that. He has a green card so he can work here now.
