B. Schenn for Yandle? L. Schenn and Yandle on 1st pairing next year!!!! Just messing with ya lol.

Not to be negative but the 2 contracts he handed to Streit and Vinny, anyone here can do also. We are hoping that it won't hurt us in a few years. Homer has not learned from his mistakes, I wonder which 35+ FA he will give a 3 year contract to this offseason.

Take that all back, the season is not over!!!!!

I get that you have the two as a same player. But honestly if you had the two trade on the table, you would take Luke over Yandle? I don't hate Luke, I do hope he turns it around soon. But value wise at the time you must be nuts to not take Yandle over Luke. We can't do nothing about it now, our defense looks like crap next year if Timonen retires.

@Howie58 Doubt the Flyers will sell anything at the deadline. They never sell if they see a chance to make the playoffs, they only sell if they have no shot at making the playoffs. I would like to see them move Hartnell as well but that is wishful thinking. I see them adding a few minor players before the deadline but for a major move it will be in the offseason or at the draft.

@AlaskaFlyerFan@doom88 You guys can think Yandle is another Carle but I rate him higher then Carle. I would rather have Yandle here now and going forward then having Luke and Streit. A defensive defenseman is easier to find then a PPQB or puck moving defenseman. We are stuck with Streit for 4 years at a 35+ contract. I rather give that money to Yandle who is alot younger. We will be looking for another puck moving defenseman after this year if Timonen retires. I don't trust Streit being healthy for a whole season if he is relied upon to carry this defense. The young defensemen we have drafted the past few years will not be able to help for another 5 years or so. So we will be back to searching for that defenseman yet again. JMO

@jammer2 Me too jammer and I just ate right before reading that. I just got over the Eagles lost and this just piss me off more lol.

http://www.sportingnews.com/nhl/story/2014-01-05/keith-yandle-flyers-us-olympic-hockey-team-roster-snubs The Luke Schenn-James van Riemsdyk trade seemed like a bad one for the Philadelphia Flyers when it happened. After a season and a half, it looks even worse — van Riemsdyk is an Olympian for the Toronto Maple Leafs, and deservedly so. Schenn has regressed. On Sunday, it actually got a little worse for Philly. General manager Paul Holmgren turned down a trade that would've sent van Riemsdyk to the Phoenix Coyotes for defenseman Keith Yandle a few hours before pulling the trigger on Schenn-JVR, according to CSN Philly's Tim Panaccio. Discussions between the two teams were reported at the time, but this is the first time we've seen it in such uncertain terms: the Flyers could've had Yandle, and said no thanks. The Coyotes' Keith Yandle (AP Photo) MORE: Lessons from the Bobby Ryan saga The reason it came up: Yandle, surprisingly, missed out on the U.S. Olympic team. He's an elite puck-mover, but USA Hockey had concerns over his perceived high-risk style and suitability on the top four. He also can only play on the left side. Holmgren, by the way, helped choose the team. From Scott Burnside's all-access piece on the selection process: "It's not that he wouldn't be on the power play if he were on the team," (former Flyers coach Peter) Laviolette says. "But the risk in his game seems to be more than Dan's willing to take or wants to take with that type of player," he adds referring to head coach Dan Bylsma. One fan: L.A. Kings coach Dean Lombardi, who wrote what was referred to as "The Yandle Manifesto" in the piece. It was funny. "Yandle is clearly the only guy that I would consider for this team. I started this trying to figure out why the kid isn't basically amongst the top six," Lombardi says. Because the central knock on Yandle is that he's not responsible enough defensively, Lombardi says he focused on situations in which this might be revealed in Yandle's game and how the same assessment might be applied to the other candidates. There is no question, he says, that Yandle is the superior puck-mover and uses a combination of superior skating and passing ability to move the puck quickly up the rink. He is the highest-scoring American defenseman over the past four years, Lombardi points out. "Why are we discounting this kid?" he asks. If they use the theory espoused by some that inclusion should be based on current level of play and body of work, "This kid's right up there with Duncan Keith in terms of points over the past four years." In any case, Yandle isn't on Team USA — or the Philadelphia Flyers. If that is true, Homer is a IDIOT. We then didn't need to sign Streit.

Great deal here, I thought he would get more then that. A modest raise from 1.375 to 1.75 . Schenn should get around 2-2.25 mil per.

Or a puppet to continue running Snider's plan when Homer is gone.

I go to the one on Route 1 in Langhorne as it's closer to me. Pats and Genos quality has gone down and don't like the taste from Tony Luke's. Never tried Dalessandro yet.

Ok so let's predict which old guy Homer will give a 5 year contract with NMC to with the available cap space.

Don't like either of those places. Steve's Prince of Steak for me.

You might be right but I am still not sure if he will be what he is made out to be playing for the Flyers.

Don't want Bogo, I see another Coburn in him. don't know why but just do.
