Just for fun, let's look ahead to the offseason in terms of the D. Coburn, Streit, Grossmann and Schenn are all signed. Gus will be a RFA. MacDonald and Timonen will be UFAs, and it's very possible Timonen retires. On the farm, Lauridsen is probably the closest to being ready for NHL duty, but he won't fill a need as the Flyers are set in terms of defensive defensemen with Coburn, Grossmann and Schenn. Top UFA non-Flyer offensive/puck-moving d-men will probably be Andrei Markov (35), Matt Niskanen (27), Meszaros (28) and Nikita Nikitin (27). If you care about left vs. right handed shots, Schenn is the Flyers only Righty. Niskanen is also a Righty.
What do you want the Flyers to do, especially assuming Timonen retires?
Could this D get the job done?
MacDonald-Schenn
Coburn-Niskanen
Streit-Grossmann
Gustafsson
Talk about a collection of 3-4 d-men.
