Flyer WILL NOT GIVE UP SIMMONDS

simmonds protects giroux. no-way philly lets him walk

Kostin looks like a Simmonds type player now. Big body, skill, willing to drop the gloves to protect teammates. I get it, he may not be a factor for another 2 years, but skill set is similar

As a Flyers fan that loves Simmonds, we very well may trade him next season or let him walk. His production has already dipped a little and he's had issues with injuries this year. That on top of the fact that he'll be on the wrong side of 30 at the time of his next contract and power forwards typically don't age as well. A 4 year 6.75 AAV deal to Simmer in two offseasons is one you'll probably end up regretting for the last two years of it.

HUGE lol at that Fabbri contract. He'll get 1.5 MAYBE

This is two years ahead. If he comes back and plays well on a one year contract in 18-19, then he will get a sizeable raise. Again just showing how impressive our forward depth is in prospects

Gotcha yeah totally misread the years. Carry on.
