sekkes85 Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 I heard 5 years @ $7 mil per.... bit too much for my liking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FD19372 Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 That leaves about $10 mill in cap space for a defenseman. Not crazy about the years or money per but if JVR hits that 30 goal mark, I guess I can live with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have been fine with paying him that much for 3 years, 5 year deal should have gotten down to around $6 mil I would think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swflyers28 Posted July 1, 2018 Author Share Posted July 1, 2018 Definitely improves our offense. Just have to maybe sign 4th or 5th on the depth chart defenseman. Unless Ron truly lets the young guys come up. Still, Myers gets injured somewhat. So we have Gudas, Sanheim, Hagg, Provy, AMac and Ghost on defense. Not sure what to do there.

hf101 Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 So does this mean Simmonds is on his way out? Nice to see our draft picks come back........... So does this mean JRV feels he can win a cup faster in Philly than in Toronto? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OccamsRazor Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 Well JVR had 11 pp goals last year... ...would have tied the with the team lead with none other than...Simmer...so a powerplay boost. So does Laughton give him his old #21 back....or does JVR go with a new number? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobbyClarkeFan16 Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 Of all people. I'm just shaking my head. Now that it's a probability, Hextall better hit a home run on the Simmonds trade. Wow, I'm stunned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He disappears for long stretches, has no heart....not at all a guy who can be counted on as a cornerstone type. Yet, the contract he signed seems to lead towards cornerstone, or at least very important. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In front of the net on the top pp. Which ever one does not get that spot, their production will suffer, prob around 30%....so trading Wayne makes sense from where I sit.

darthbal Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 Just saw on twitter, someone mentioned these as possible lines for the FLyers next year... Giroux-Couts-Konecny JVR-Patrick-Voracek Lindblom-XXXX-Simmonds Raffl-Laughton-Weal Still missing a 3rd line C though. Wonder does Hexy go and sign someone else or does he bring up someone from the Phantoms? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
