let’s assume they are contending in 5 years. who will still be here that is part of the core “solution”
If you mean serious cup contention, it’s more about adding. They can use another #1/2 center, a Top 4 Dman, a goalie, more size and toughness. Maybe they can get one or two of those slots filled internally. If not they have to go shopping.
no one with the exception of possibly MM is part of the solution.
Nonsensical.

you said a lot of dumb shit. like brink will be fighting for a roster spot.
Nobody stepped up enough to take it from him. Bump was not as advertised and Grebenkin won himself a 4th line role. To be the man you’ve got to beat the man. Brink is still not part of the solution. Martone will fix that.

brink is the only one I see not being on this team next season. draft or deadline trade.
What was I saying as soon as this board opened?

Briere has some serious thinking to do over this break. The team is falling hard and fast out of the playoff hunt, but as usual, not far enough to get a real shot at a difference maker in the draft. They needs centers in the worst way, and he needs to start seriously thinking about dealing some of that winger depth for a center.
Shane Wright for Tippett has gained some traction in the internets. Would both sides entertain a deal like that? I hope Briere is working the phones because this team needs impact centers even more so than D in my opinion. They have none on the team or in the system, that is a fact.

Brink and Barkey both in the Top 9 leaves you with too small a Top 9. They’ve also got a few 185-190 guys, not small, just average. Now Carolina has a small team up front too, but look at their smaller guys. Aho, PPG guy, Jarvis, close to it, Ehlers, not far behind Jarvis and all three are much better producers than Barkey or Brink.
With Andrae in, along with average to smallish for Dmen York and Drysdale, it’s a small blue line too.
I have no problem with Grebenkin or Bonk who is still a kid and will fill out to 200. Martone is the guy. No worries there, just not 100% sure he’ll turn pro next year. Small with average at best skills gets smashed in the NHL regular season let alone playoffs.
For 58 minutes, the story wrote itself.
Nick Cousins, former Flyers draft pick and Stanley Cup winner beats Vladar on a defensive mixup involving Juulsen for the game winning goal. Will Juulsen be to valuable to the PK, with 6 SECONDS IN LAST 4 GAMES, to sit after the olympic break? Tocchet says he’d like to get Andrae some time after sitting for over a month but the PK is to important.
While they tied it up with the goalie pulled the Sens quickly ended the game once overtime started. Once again the Flyers skaters were vastly outplayed and only Vladar kept them in it.
I hope to hell Danny sells at the TDL but he won’t because he’s still looking towards making the playoffs next season rather than rebuilding. Same goal as this season.
lost in all this is danny boy loves this roster. he thinks they are not far away. there is next to no hope for anything in the next 5 years
