I wouldn't mind seeing them go after Duclair depending on the price. Potential explosive, young, LW.... of course he seems to have fallen flat on his face in terms of development but he is only 21 years old and has has tons of potential. Arizona has made it known he is available and he could probably use a change of scenery after this year in the desert. I really like Duclair. If he can be had for say one of the Flyers prospects and maybe a 3rd, I'd be ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They still like taking on salary? MacDonald and a 2nd? They need to replace Pronger's salary coming off the cap lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hahahaha...that's funny. I hope Washington wins the cup. I think their GM has done a pretty good job and they deserve it by now. Um if you actually read my original post regarding the Shattenkirk trade, you'd see that I said it was a gross under payment for him. In fact, I did say his cost was a late first; which is basically a second, and a throw-away roster player for a 1a/b defender. The statement you quoted was ME joking around about how Holmgren treated second rounders like they were radioactive by always disposing of them.

From what I have seen he is a speedy sniper that can outright fly. He has some decent size and could be that 1st line left winger or Scottie Upshall 2.0. If it's say a 3rd and a prospect swap like Weal, I'd be all over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had 20 Goals, 24 Assists last year, he is 21 years old, and most importantly he is a LW! This year 41 GP and only 9 points though. So which year is a fluke? I'd trade away a mid pick and a mid prospect and maybe a Raffl to find out. Or MacDonald and a 2nd.... lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did see the underpayment statement earlier but I didn't realize that was you. I'm confused though. So you're in favor of Holmgen's style? It looked like you were taking a jab at him, but if Washington underpayed, and you think it was the same sort of move Holmgren would make, that must mean Holmgren did some good things?

Washington underpaid = very good move for them if they can sign Shattenkirk long term, or win a cup this year St. Louis may have gotten fleeced = bad for them *****In other unrelated news to the Shattenkirk trade***** Holmgren traded away second round picks like it was necessary part of being a GM = bad for the Flyers farm team for many years I don't think I can simplify this any further.

This might make your brain explode then. You might want to simplify it a little more because I'm not even sure you know what you're trying to say. Bertmega math Washington gives up picks = good Holmgren gives up picks = bad I'm no algebramatician, but my calculator keeps giving me an error message when I type that in.

I'm tapping out of this back and forth. Let's just keep it to the 2017 trade deadline talk, and eliminate Holmgren from the equation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
