Willie Mitchell or who else for #4?

[chy1127]

Now that Hamhuis has dicked us, we still need another top 4 defenseman. With the Canucks getting Keith Ballard, not sure if they will bring Mitchell back. I know he had concussion problems but if healthy he may be in our price range. Any other ideas for a #4.

michalek?

 

[h X c Chris]

Volchenkov?

I'd take him.

michalek?

Probably not.

Volchenkov?

Too expensive.

#5 once the Flyers resign Coburn. I would target Michalek.

 

[scottflyers88]

hamhuis? haha. nevermind.

 

[anderwho2513]

Marc Staal? Maybe pull a 'Vanek' and fuck up their cap situation because there is no way they let him go.

 

[GagneFire12]

Michalek, Tallinder, Corvo, Leopold - would all be servicable on the third-pair.

A-Train, Martin - would be great, but with their pricetag, probably an impossibility.

 

[scottflyers88]

gonchar, johnsson, martin, morris, tallinder, lydman, corvo, foster, and
randy jones.

Michalek is an interesting idea. He is a right handed shot, something we haven't had since Jason Smith, and he never shot the puck.

Nabokov and Michalek would make for a good offseason.

I think this would fit the cap. Marshall fights for #6.

 

[anderwho2513]

Are the Penguins re-signing Eaton? He would be fantastic as a #5.

 

[scottflyers88]

there are actually good choices on defense.

Eaton is another good option. Our old friend from '00 playoffs.

Marshall, Bart, and MAB should battle it out during camp.

Nabby can sign an incentive laden deal (35+). Michalek will demand somewhere between 2.75-3.

Nabokov and Michalek

...and a pick for Carter??? Ok!

Mitchell would be awesome, but...

 

[GagneFire12]

If we're trading Carter it's for nothing less than Jonathan Bernier and another player.

Carter for Bernier and Brown.
