Are there any top 9 forwards that Philadelphia would be willing to unload for a defenseman?
If they are serious about bring Jagr back for another year then may be Voracek. Not that he hasn't been awesome but how much can they afford to pay a guy to be a 3rd liner?

It depends on the defenseman. But I would put JVR at the top of the list. But as I have stated before. I would rather just tinker with the line up. Unless it is for one of the big two out of Nashville.

Voracek for Murray?
I would definitely consider a deal around these two. Not sure who has to add.

Me neither. I am not sure of Murray's age or contract. Voracek is a very good two way player that should get top 6 minutes but I can't see him playing on the wing over a healthy JVR, Hartnell, a healthy Jagr, or a healthy Briere. I would rather keep Voracek and not resign Jagr at age 40.
One of the reasons I think Flyers fans are comfortable with JVR, besides needing a good dman, are to get bigger and tougher in their top-9. For that reason, Clowe is good, but moving Simmonds as a part of the deal would not be.
My personal view is that Flyers have a big big need on defense, so if they are going to trade someone with as much value as JVR it really ought to be for a top-notch dman.

Murray's 31 and has 1 more year at $2.5m. He's fantastic as a #5 - one of the best hitting defensive dmen.

Voracek for Murray?
I would take that in a second. That's an overpayment by Philly though.
I'd be all over original proposal. Murray is solid and what the Flyers need. Clowe is a great peice and would love to have him in O&B and next years 1st? It's a no brainer for me
Gotta give to get I think htat makes us a better team now and helps us in the future as well

I like a smaller deal of Murray + for Voracek. Simmonds for Clowe is a wash talent wise pretty much except clowe is older and more expensive.
Salary is a wash. How is value? Who would need to add?
Kudo's to the OP . This is a good proposal and one that helps both teams.I really believe that the Flyers need to add a draft pick too. Say a 3rd
Personal i'm not sure which Dual is better.
