Will be interesting to see who gets moved...you'd have to think Darcy and Farrell would be locks and one of Brassard or Legare could be moved. Thoughts?
Brassard has been less than great in nets, maybe they would entertain adding a 19 year old FA type and make a big move at midseason?

Legare out, or move Brassard and run with Sullivan.
This is insane.

The problem with keeping Legare is would he be happy with a third line role? My gut tells me that Legare gets traded to a Quebec team but I am not the one making the decision.
Will the top 6 of Farrell, Darcy, Svechnikov, Lazerev, Bishop and Pelletier be the best Eagles top 6 of all time?

If Duclair can stick in the NHL after 9 games, and now with the unexpected return of Darcy.. on paper CB may be the legitimate #2 in the league.

That's my thought as well, but a third line of Legare - Simard - Dubois would be such great depth if hes willing to play the role. It's not like it'd be a checking line, it'd be a 3rd scoring line.

I'd flip Legare for a 3rd until Xmas then go after a goaltending upgrade and the best veteran D on the market. I have little confidence in Brassard but less in Sullivan.

Just read this on twitter. Wow you guys just put yourselves in talks for a Mem cup run. With Duclair not coming back I can see him becoming the favorit to win MVP.

The problem with him on the 3rd line is your putting everything on Sullivan and if he goes down... I think Legare has the most trade value of he and Brassard so you move him and then work on upgrading the goaltending and finding a #1 D.

Yeah I do agree with that and I'm like 90% sure its gonna be Legare getting traded, but from what I've seen so far from Brassard this year... I dunno. Brassard - 0.865 2-3 record. Sullivan - 0.879 3-1 record. It sucks that hes making it a tough choice because if you look at his numbers the previous years, you know he can be .900+ goaltender.

If anybody belongs on the 3rd line in that group it would be Bishop.

hmm thought you folks said he wasn't likely coming back
this news doesn't surprise me at all
does make for a tough call... if you had a solid goaltending option it would be quite a bit easier

He has made large strides forward during the off-season and I would say that he is clearly ahead of Legare on the depth chart now.
