Coburn to Tampa for a 1st, 3rd, and Gudas

[Retroram52]

I think Hextall might have in mind of returning the team to a more "Broad Street Bullies" mentality and playing performance. The league no longer looks on Philly as that and they don't fear playing Philly like they used to. Perhaps Gudas is a first step in that direction. Perhaps he is has a little more smarts than Rinaldo but we have not had a really big line-up since the days of LeClair and Lindross and the Legion of Doom.

I agree with Chy and awaz. Hextall pulled off two good trades and got picks and dumped salaries. Now if we could just get somebody to take Vinny, Rinaldo, and MDZ for picks and it doesn't have to be just one team.

Hextall did well..very well! A first round pick in a deep draft and a decent young hard nosed dman wow I'm impressed. Had a feeling Coburn would get moved but never thought he'd get that much...love it!

Ive been waiting 7 years to see this type of play from him and he goes and does it in Tampa. What a tool.

I agree Lasgop. Why didn't he do that when he was here?

I dont care about the fights

I wish he played competent defense on a nightly basis and had his head anywhere other than inside his ass

When you drop the gloves every now and then people respect you a little more and don't come forchecking so hard with a result of us being in our zone for half the game.

I was more impressed with the big hit he gave before the fight. He needed to be more physical.
