Player Notes
September 5, 2008
Simon Gagne will enter the 2008 season free of the concussion related symptoms that he dealt with last season if you ask HC John Stevens or GM Paul Holmgren, according to The Philadelphia Inquirer.

Our View:Gagne was limited to just 25 games last season due to his concussion, and is looking to return to the level that saw him score 88 goals in 2005-06. If he can return to those scoring levels off the left wing, the Flyers will be in great shape. Still, until we see him take a hit on the ice we won't be sure about his status, so you will be taking a risk if you reach for Gagne early in your draft despite the upside.

Simon Gagne passed baseline and impact tests on Thursday "with flying colors," general manager Paul Holmgren informs the Philadelphia Daily News. The veteran battled concussion symptoms all season and appeared in only 25 games. His next hurdle will be to get in shape, as Holmgren says Gagne is currently a "little chubby."

Our View:Gagne's value will be depressed heading into 2008-09, for obvious reasons. The two-time All-Star could end up being a great value pick if he stays healthy, though.

Simon Gagne had a terribly disappointing 2007-08 season being limited to just 25 games of action, but both he and the team believe that he will be ready to go come next season, according to the Philadelphia Enquirer. "I believe that he'll be a good player for us next year and a healthy player," said GM Paul Holmgren, pointing out the Gagne was skating at season's end. "I haven't seen any reports or heard from our doctors or the doctors that have seen Simon that have led me to believe otherwise."

Our View:Gagne had back-to-back seasons of 40-goals in 2005-06, so look for him to be undervalued heading into pools next season marking him as an intriguing mid-round selection with considerable upside.
