yep, couts is a big part of their franchise atm, elite defensive center alrdy, got offensive upside too

Wouldn't say elite but pretty good. Plus that's a quality flyers don't have much of.

For his age group, he is the best two way center in the league. It just sucked that he was stuck on the third/fourth line all last year. The kid is going to be a stud.


And yeah, Rivals, you're breakdown of Philly is idiotic.



Don't know if these have been posted, so here we go.

Kunitz resigned 3 years, 3.85M per
Chicago plans to use buyouts on Montador and Olesz. And are also shopping Bolland

mason is unproven

Philly has a lot of work to do if they want to be a cup contender in the near future

imo:

Keep:
Giroux R
Voracek R
Simmonds R
B Schenn C
Read R
Fedotenko L (Resign around 1.75 M)
Talbot C
Timonen D
L Schenn D
Foster D (Resign ~ 1 M ?)
Mason G

Get rid of:
Gervais D (Trade for a 3rd/4th rounder or 3rd D)
Briere R (bought out)
Coburn D (Trade for a 2nd/3rd rounder or 2nd D)
Meszaros D (Trade for a 2nd/3rd rounder or a 2nd D)
Couturier C (Trade for a 3rd/4th rounder or 3rd/4th C/L)
Grossmann D (Trade for a 2nd/3rd rounder or a 2nd/3rd D)
Gustafsson D (Don't resign)
Bryzgalov G (bought out)
Rinaldo C (Trade for a 3rd/4th rounder or a 4th C/L)


Rest I guess keep


Go out and get a proven goalie and some top D/bottom L/C's

Agree/Disagree with any of these?

1. giroux is a center for like 3 years now
2. foster is  crap  went through this
out of the "get rid of" id actually get rid of these guys(id trade gervais assuming he could even fetch that)
Gervais D (Trade for a 3rd/4th rounder or 3rd D)
Briere R (bought out)
Grossmann D (Trade for a 2nd/3rd rounder or a 2nd/3rd D)
Bryzgalov G (bought out) (kinda iffy but hes gone so ok )


d lines prob be like
timo-schenn
streit-coburn
mezaros-grossman
we prob trade  grossman and either mez or coburn tho since thats a shit ton of cap in a D core and we got young guys that can  go on the 3rd pairing

just going off what nhl.com calls him (giroux). doesn't really matter since a forward is a forward.  lots of wingers play center and vice versa
