Philadelphia Flyers Rumours

04 Aug 2025 04:31:11
Philadelphia Flyers receive:

(C)Mason McTavish (Unsigned *RFA*)
(RD)Tristan Luneau
(RW/LW)Sasha Pastujov


Anaheim Ducks receive:

(RW/LW)O.Tippet
(C/W)J.Luchanko
(LD)E.Andrae
(RD)R.Ristolainen (50%retained)
Leafs(2027)1st,(2026)2nd,and a (2028)3rd.

Ducks move on from a disgruntled McTavish who wants out of Anaheim while replacing his production with NHL ready talent like (RW/LW)Tippet and (RD) Ristolainen and get back some good NHL ready prospects prospects in (C/W)Jett Luchanko (2024 13th overall) and (LD) E. Andrae, plus a 1st,2nd,and 3rd round pick. A "Best Case" scenario for Anaheim who is forced to move on from McTavish and get the best return possible.

Flyers overpay for McTavish who is hopefully a peice of the Flyers future Center core along with Zegras,Couturier,and Jack Nesbitt. And they get another option with legitimate elite upside to play with Martone and Michkov.

Thoughts?

06 Aug 2025 16:40:09
lol . who said McTavish was disgruntled?

15 Aug 2025 13:38:21
McTavish and his agent. The market. The fact that Anaheim disputes with every young player they have to sign and have already chose to send out multiple young players they feel don't match their "rebuild style". McTavish is on Serrevalli's top20 trade targets. I mean. Where there's smoke there's usually fire.

04 Aug 2025 03:25:42
Anaheim Ducks receive: Owen Tippet, Noah Cates, Ristolainen (50% retained), 2027 Leafs 1st, 2026 2nd and a 2027 3rd.

Verbeek and Quenneville get some physicality and top6 30 goal potential with Tippet locked in on a reasonable contract for term(especially considering the CAP rising) And a solid 2-3C in N. Cates who's competent defensively, is good on the PK, and can add good scoring depth and flexibility up and down the line-up. And Veteran Ristolainen for cheap as a defensive minded defensemen with size, puck moving ability, and a physical edge, who can plug into The Ducks blue line immediately.
Plus a good Defensive prospect in Andrae and the 2027 1st rounder and other picks to stock the prospect pool and or use as ammunition.
With this The Anaheim Ducks hesitantly move on from a disgruntled McTavish who was seeking a change of scenery and not happy with his utilization, FA additions, making him unsure of his place in The Ducks line-up. Then with McTavish asking for more term and AAV then The Ducks/Verbeek felt comfortable giving him.... Verbeek pulls the trigger.

Philadelphia Flyers receive:
Mason McTavish, Tristan Luneau, 2026 4th, 2027 5th.

Flyers overpay to get a young promising Center like McTavish who fits the timeline, adda size at 1C-2C, and possesses a rare skillet The Flyers desperately need to develop next to Michkov and Martone, AND plays a position of need. Slotting McTavish into the top6 Center role with Zegras and being able to ease Couturier and Dvorak further down the line-up is worth the overpay for Philadelphia. Allowing them to develop Nesbitt and Luchanko correctly. And add RD prospect Tristan Luneau to a blue line in dire need of prospects.
Flyers give up a ransom and will DEF miss Tippet and Cates, but sending out a top6 scoring winger and competent two way Center and banking on the future with two much younger top6 Centers with elite potential are worth the future picks and veteran talent The Flyers lose. Briere continues backing on the future and pays a premium buts adds two Centers to play with Michkov, Martone, Konecny, and Foerster in The Flyers top6.

Curious as to what everyone thinks. Must admit I am A Flyers fan but I'm hoping I held back my bias.

09 Mar 2025 15:09:28
Since the trade deadline has past I will post a draft trade proposal.

Philadelphia Trades
Ristolainen*

Toronto Trades
Kampf
Danford (OHL)
2nd Round Pick 2025
2nd Round Pick 2027

*Flyers retain 50% of Ristolainen's remaining 2 years of his contract.


Toronto doing most of the work on Defense this past season add that one defenceman to solidify next season.
Flyers rebuilding and retooling get a good return for the future, Kampf has to be part of this proposal to give The Leafs enough Cap to figure out who stays or who comes in as UFAs.

Thanks for breaking the trade, but I'm pretty sure people that visit this site visit sports sites first.

31 Jan 2025 17:25:48
Chicken foot. I think it's to discuss the trade, not break it.

31 Jan 2025 18:16:19
Thanks Hrenklin. Yes that was my intention. I should have written in “discuss”. Some people just can’t function without direction.

31 Jan 2025 19:48:55
I think Flames did really well on this.

Thoughts ?

19 Dec 2024 03:47:08
You just can't take being wrong, eh.

There's no reason for Philadelphia to trade a useful player for a useless one.

Philly isn't obligated to bail Toronto out of a bad contract for an AHL level player.

If Kampf is as good as you're saying he is pinball, keep him.

19 Dec 2024 03:55:27
2024-25 season stats

Hathaway- 3 goals 8 assists 11 points in 31 games played

Kampf- 0 goals 3 assists 3 points in 18 games played

You said it yourself in your Patrick Kane trade proposal, "live in his value today not from the past. "

Kampf has no trade value on his own, his contact being identical to Hathaways doesn't make him worth the same as Hathaway.

19 Dec 2024 13:58:42
memarcusjoe
Wow I just broke everything down how they are both completely comparable yet Kampf in your eyes is useless, sorry but that shows obvious bias against Toronto.
Even facts are ignored by you when it comes to The Leafs.

19 Dec 2024 15:01:56
DrwDave
Kampf has been injured this season his numbers would be better if he wasn't, so that narrative of what you do for me today for value is when it's a Leaf Player only?
That's what you're basically saying with that response.

19 Dec 2024 15:31:42
At the end of the day @Pinball there's no benefit for Philly to make the trade. They are still in the hunt for that last spot and Hathaway is having the better year compared to Kampf.

Yes Kampf has been injured, but he hasn't been even overly effective as a bottom 6 player for a few years now. It is what it is, but only way we unload him is for a late draft pick with little to no retention or tagging on an earlier draft pick and some retention to maybe get a mid pick back.

We need to address the bottom 6 for sure, but I don't see Philly dealing a guy who fits their style of play for a guy who does not.

19 Dec 2024 16:56:41
MG69
Why doesn't Kampf fit The Flyers style?
4th Line Center who is good at faceoffs, responsibly defensively, and kills penalties.
Why wouldn't Philadelphia want that in your mind?

19 Dec 2024 17:06:37
Yes, Pinball whenever anyone criticizes your always one-sided trades, they are biased against Toronto.

It couldn't possibly be your bias of the worst Toronto player being better than any other player on any other team could it?

19 Dec 2024 17:17:47
Pinball, so now your argument to devalue Kane of "live in his value today, not in the past" only applies to players of other teams and not when you're trying to peddle Leaf garbage? That's what you're saying with your response.

Live in Kampf's value today (negative, it will cost to dump him) not his value from years past (nothing) .

19 Dec 2024 17:24:07
memarcusjoe
No I am not devaluing Kampf you are, when it comes to Kane it's what his worth is today, Kampf and Hathaway right now imo are still equal today.

19 Dec 2024 18:06:58
Pinball, we agree you are not devaluing Kampf, you are greatly overvaluing him.

What your are doing though is devaluing players on other teams saying "live in their value today, not in the past".

While then turning around and saying "live in their value today, not in the past" doesn't apply to Kampf or Leaf players in general. There we must value them at the highest value they were ever valued at, no matter how long in the past it was or how small the sample size for that value is.

Living in Kampf's value today, means you pay to dump him like any other team does with any other cap dump.

19 Dec 2024 18:08:29
You won't return a player who by your own admission, is better than Kampf in every way, just older.

19 Dec 2024 18:19:49
memarcusjoe
No Kampf and Hathaway are even in every category including Cap.
Kampf is better because of age and being a Centre as Centres have more value than Wingers, Philly if any of these teams should add not The Leafs.

19 Dec 2024 18:34:44
When Kampf is a crappy center, it doesn't up his value. I'm sure Hathaway could be a crappy center as well.

Points wise this year, Hathaway is far better and by your own words "live in his value today, but the past".

Game, set and match.

19 Dec 2024 19:26:13
memarcusjoe
By the end of the season I guarantee that Kampf and Hathaway will be the same or close to the same points per game.
I will repost that at season end.

19 Dec 2024 22:16:11
I said game, set and match pinball. It's over. :)

20 Dec 2024 00:47:33
memarcusjoe
You said?
Your word is God now as well?
Your opinion is just that, your opinion.

20 Dec 2024 05:11:08
Game, set and match.

Pinball…you’re so far off, and for some reason you get condescending. No one with your knowledge of hockey should ever be condescending.

PS. Would ANYONE who upvoted Pinball on this post confirm their upvote by posting a reply to this? It’s pretty obvious that Pinball upvotes the heck out of his own posts, so if anyone actually did upvote him, please reply. ?.

20 Dec 2024 13:12:34
Easy Pinball, I was joking about game, set and match.

20 Dec 2024 16:19:49
The beautiful thing about opinions pinball, is that they mean absolutely nothing in reality.

You don't have to convince us Kampf is worth as much as Hathaway, we already know he isn't. Kampf is in 9 out of every 10 trade proposals you come up with.

If Kampf and Hathaway are even in every category, why does Hathaway have 17 more career NHL points, and a career +/ - differential of +31? Shouldn't they be identical?

The only way you're getting rid of Kampf without adding a draft pick as compensation is by waiving him.

He has a $1.35 million signing bonus for the next 2 years, which is laughable since that's the salary he should be paid not the bonus he deserves. But the Leafs reward even their 4th liners with signing bonuses so that's why you have the ghost of David Kampf making $2.4 million.

He also has a 10 team no trade list that you rarely seem to respect. You treat Kampf like he's a castaway, he's always your scapegoat to get a better player and yet you argue that Kampf is the better player in every trade you come up with. So why is he being shopped then?

20 Dec 2024 16:30:36
You are without a doubt the most stubborn Leafs fan I've ever heard of. Your OCD compulsion to post a different trade every single day is ridiculous.

Your evaluation of Leafs players and prospects is delusional. You argue that the players you're trading are worth more than the player you're trading for, yet you continue to try and make these trades involving them.

Robertson/ Kampf/ Jarnkrok/ Hildeby/ Dewar are your go to scapegoats. The only reason you can come up with to trade them is that you think there's a shinier player available on another team that is down on its luck and is likely willing to trade their players to Toronto for next to nothing.

You have absolutely no loyalty to any roster player that makes less than $3 million. You have absolutely no respect for any other team that isn't Toronto, you demonstrate that in every trade by having a narrow minded view on what every other NHL teams needs/ wants are.

In your backwards mind, every other team is either rebuilding or thinking about rebuilding so they're obviously only in the league to exist for trade pieces for the Leafs.

The only thing about you that makes you even remotely a Leafs fan is that you believe your opinion means something and everyone else's opinion means nothing. There are dozens of other Leafs fans on this site that have greater respect for teams and players and I know they don't claim you as one of their own.

It's so ridiculously disrespectful to compulsively trade the same rotation of 4th liners and injured players and argue that they're worth more combined than anything another team has to offer.

20 Dec 2024 16:57:31
DrwDave
Your opinion and leave it there, it's ok if Kampf stays Berube loves the way he plays anyways.
Yet he is useless in your eyes.

20 Dec 2024 17:48:41
How much of a spineless jellyfish do you have to be to argue this much about why Kampf is worth more than Hathaway, and then just walk it back with "it's okay if Kampf stays"?

You've been trying to come up with ways to trade Kampf for months going back to last season. To call yourself a Maple Leafs fan is so insulting and disrespectful to every Leafs fan on this site.

You have no respect for any roster players that makes less than Jake McCabe. You try and trade them every single day, while simultaneously telling us they're worth MORE than what you're asking for. You think that makes you credible?

Yesterday you tried the same Hathaway trade but for Dewar. After everyone schooled you on the lack of value going to Philadelphia, you just said "k forget about Dewar, what about Kampf for Hathaway? "

Zero respect for these players. Zero loyalty to your favorite team. Zero respect for other people here who disagree with you.

I've seen Marcus and Islandjet show blind loyalty to Winnipeg for years on this site, but the difference between them and you is that unlike you, Marcus respects the players on Winnipeg so much that he will argue why a trade doesn't make sense from the Jets perspective.

You just throw all the 4th liners on Toronto away on a daily basis and argue why a trade makes sense from the other teams perspective. As if you'd know anything about the Flyers, Red Wings, or any other team you want to take a player from.

You're an embarrassing excuse for a hockey fan. You won't agree, but that's my opinion.

16 Dec 2024 21:31:29
Philadelphia Trades
Hathaway

Toronto Trades
DeWar

4th line trade for both teams.



Thoughts ?

16 Dec 2024 21:56:39
Philly would probably rather have a pick.

16 Dec 2024 23:24:13
memarcusjoe
Curious why would Philly want a draft pick instead of DeWar?
DeWar isn't a top player same as Hathaway but does the things that a 4th liner is expected to do and is 8 years younger, a Draft Pick isn't a certain for The NHL and DeWar is.

17 Dec 2024 13:21:04
Pinball, why do Toronto a favour and downgrade a plug for free? Philadelphia isn't going anywhere, so adding a different plug doesn't do anything for them, so they might as well take the gamble that they can get lucky and fluke a good player with the pick. It's not like DeWar has potential or is anything special, or something that every team doesn't have 3 or 4 of.

17 Dec 2024 13:52:01
memarcusjoe
So you believe Philadelphia would rather gamble on getting lucky with a late draft pick then get an NHL Player?
That actually makes no sense from The Flyers side of it, or your comment.

17 Dec 2024 15:51:19
Yeah it does pinball. DeWar does nothing for them plain and simple. He's nothing that they don't already have and won't be around when the start to challenge for a playoff spot.

They might as well just keep the better player now and replace him in house when the time comes as opposed to helping Toronto out and not getting anything useful in return.

Like all your trades, it makes perfect sense for Toronto, but is nonsense for the opposing team.

17 Dec 2024 16:14:50
memarcusjoe
Again your comment makes zero sense, DeWar is a player most teams want with his compete level and at 25 years old compared to a 33 year old Hathaway that's a positive move for a team like The Flyers, just like Hathaway makes sense for Toronto.
Your logic doesn't make sense.

17 Dec 2024 18:10:48
DeWar is a player all teams already have. Inconsequential, not a difference maker and easily replaceable by most league minimum players. Not the kind of player you need to trade for, just grab one off waivers or promote an AHL'er.

17 Dec 2024 20:19:12
Memarcusjoe is 100% right Pinball.

They both might be 4th liners, but even with all the leafs injuries, he's only seen half the games Hathaway has.

On an expiring deal, Hathaway will be a nice add for a playoff-bound team. Dewar isn't going to do it, and Memarcus explained why. Like always you just can't deal with it.

17 Dec 2024 21:14:09
memarcusjoe and Chickenfoot
Ok forget DeWar, David Kampf and Hathaway are pretty much the same with contract games played and points per game etc. as Hathaway has been extended 2 more years at 2.4 million the exact same as Kampf.
Are you going to again say that's not a fair trade when a Centre is more valuable than a winger?
So my revised trade is Kampf for Hathaway.

17 Dec 2024 23:58:26
The difference is Hathaway provides value for his salary. Kampf doesn't, which is obviously why you want to dump him. If Kampf was more valuable, you wouldn't be offering him.

You kind of painted yourself into a corner with that one.

18 Dec 2024 02:28:45
Pinball…you constantly embarrass yourself with ridiculous posts that you whine about and/ or double down on.

Kampf has 2 more years at 2.4M, and Hathaway is on an expiring deal. Which player do you think is less valuable? Could it be…. the one you’re always trying to trade?

Kampf is unable to secure more playing time despite the leafs injury situation. He has zero goals. Does he sound like a player that teams want to be on the hook for 2 more years?

Kampf, you’ve been told repeatedly, is a cap dump who is suffering through the worst stretch of his career. Do you not understand this? You include him in almost every trade proposal you post. If you want to dump him so badly why would another team want your contract.

Think it through Pinball. If you have any hockey sense you’ll realize Memarcus is correct and you are not.

18 Dec 2024 02:39:10
memarcusjoe
Kampf and Hathaway are basically a wash in every category except Kampf is a Centre more valuable than a winger and 4 years younger.
Their values are a wash in the big picture, I know you have a hard time accepting that but that's a fact.

18 Dec 2024 05:09:13
If Dewar is a player every NHL team wants, why trade him?

And when everyone disagrees with your assessment of Dewar, you just swap him out with LTIR 3 assist Kampf and call it the same value?

Why not just offer a Conditional 4th round pick for Hathaway instead of arguing for why Dewar is better (yet you want to trade him) and then switching him with Kampf instead (LTIR with 3 assists)?

18 Dec 2024 13:10:14
DrwDave
Kampf is coming off LTIR and ready to play.

18 Dec 2024 17:26:31
Chickenfoot
Again Hathaway was extended 2 more seasons after this year at 2.4 million a year, so contracts are a wash.

09 Dec 2024 15:40:53
Cgy trades Dan Vladar to Philly for Morgan Frost. Both have the same cap value and Frost fits into the age slot that Conroy is looking for,

10 Dec 2024 00:21:03
Not sure if the trade value would benefit both but Calgary is looking for RH and Frost is LH.

10 Dec 2024 00:55:21
Fair deal indeed, a great fit for both teams?.

12 Dec 2024 18:51:20
UFA Goalie value are much much lower than 25yr old rfa.

05 Dec 2024 13:29:20
Anaheim Trades
Vatrano*
RStrome*

Toronto Trades
Holmberg
NRobertson
Kampf (LTIR)
Hildeby (AHL)
2nd Round Pick 2025 (FLAs Pick)


*Ducks retain 50% of both Vatrano and RStrome's remaining contracts.


Anaheim in full rebuild will be unloading an upcoming UFA in Vatrano and a veteran in RStrome for 2 younger forwards, a good prospect Goaltender in Hildeby plus getting back a 2nd Rounder they traded away to Philly, all things that a rebuilding team would look to do, Kampf has to be part of this proposal for cap reasons.

Leafs improve the 3rd line adding Vatrano and RStrome which is a huge win for them, they aren't star players but players that playoff teams look for imo.



Thoughts ?

05 Dec 2024 15:06:32
Average Pinball post:

Everything on the Leafs trade block (which combined wouldnt even get a 1st round pick in return) in exchange for a forward (or 2) at 50% discounts.

05 Dec 2024 15:08:16
- This is super-duper one-sided.

- Vatrano is a pending UFA stud, and even though he's nowhere near his 37 and 22 goal pace of the past two years, he would command far more consideration than this.

- Robertson, Holmberg and Kampf have 3 goals between them, and with all the leafs' injuries, none have shown the ability to step up in the lineup.

- the 2nd helps compensate for the term & dollars you expect ANA to take on, but there's no building blocks here for a rebuilding team.

06 Dec 2024 00:33:43
This is a "here's all the garbage my team wants to dump, give me one or two of your good players for it" proposal. Then making it even more insulting by asking for free retention.

This is a new low even for pinball I think.

13 Jul 2024 16:52:04
Just read an article about a trade between PHI and WPG.
WPG
McGoarty
PHI
Konecny
Laughton
2025-2RD

Great trade for WPG for now. Providing they could resign Konecny.
But both player are later 20s.
But Konecny and Scheifele and think would look really good together.
But honestly I can't see this trade happening.

13 Jul 2024 19:47:17
Yeah, I definitely can't see that happening. The players are too old, have too little term left and Konecny isn't extending in Winnipeg.

It's not anything Winnipeg would be looking for in exchange for McGroarty, imo.

13 Jul 2024 22:38:53
Is this guy, not even a top 10 pick, worth that?

14 Jul 2024 05:05:22
Personally I think this is way too much for McGoarty.
So far all I’ve read so far is that really only few teams interested in McGoarty because of his demand of having a NHL roster spot. Montreal, Carolina, and I guess Philadelphia.

14 Jul 2024 17:11:38
Id like to think Chevy would take this deal. Makes the Jets better and deeper going into next season. Only have so many good years left in Helly so the time for being all in for a cup is now for the Jets.

14 Jul 2024 21:40:34
I would think Flyers add Sanheim and a top prospect, because Rutger is a superstar.

15 Jul 2024 01:53:36
superstar? seems more attitude. maybe should be in Toronto.

16 Jul 2024 11:47:38
I wasn't serious.

21 Jul 2024 06:06:49
Whoever wrote this article is a pinball Winnipeg fan. that's like a trade for a allstar, not a fairly upside prospect.

04 Jul 2024 04:55:49
Chicago: Kaiser and Murphy. Philly: konecny

04 Jul 2024 16:09:30
I'd do it.

22 Jun 2024 15:43:55
Ottawa - 7th overall

Philly - 12th and Laughton

24 Jun 2024 04:22:47
Its hard to move up that far in the top of the first round. I'd think Philly adds a little but close. Imho.

20 Jun 2024 21:47:32
Anaheim Trades
Zegras

Philadelphia Trades
Couturier*
1st Round Pick 2024(FLAs Pick)

*Couturier would have to waive his NMC to complete the transaction.



Thoughts ?

21 Jun 2024 06:11:42
Why would the Ducks want to get even older.?

21 Jun 2024 13:30:22
He doesn't care about what the Ducks would want to do BumbleBee.

He heard Zegras is on the trade block and decided Anaheim will probably take whatever they can get for him even if it makes them worse.

This is what happens whenever he posts something, its always one sided. Im just surprised this wasnt a trade to Toronto for Kampf and Dewar.

19 Jun 2024 04:57:27
Read that Philly was maybe buying out Atkinson. Chicago likes overpaid veterans. How about Chicago 18th, 50th.. Philly 12th, 36th and Atkinson. Is that too much or little payment.

19 Jun 2024 16:39:06
why trade if Philly is buying him out?

19 Jun 2024 18:42:28
I'd be down with that. Atkinson would be a useful player for one season and the Hawks have to at least reach the cap floor. Moving up in the 1st and 2nd would be an excellent outcome for Hawks.

19 Jun 2024 18:55:43
Good one Shoots?.

20 Jun 2024 04:53:07
Balsam, think HjalmarssonStan explained it. But even the switch of 12 for 18 and keep Philly from spending on the buyout and not spending. Cap hit would be over 4 mil over 2 years for buyout instead of trading 5.75mil of no years. Chicago does it for a higher draft pick.

17 Jun 2024 15:30:13
3 Trade Proposals.

First.
Philadelphia Trades
Laughton

Toronto Trades
McMann
Kampf*

*Kampf would have to waive his NTC to complete the transaction.


Second.
Seattle Trades
Borgen

Toronto Trades
Liljegren
Reaves


Third.
SJ Trades
Ferraro

Toronto Trades
NRobertson
Benoit


These 3 moves would not as much clear up Cap Space as these are hockey trades for all teams involved, which doesn't change much what's still needed for The Leafs but adding those 3 is a good start heading into Free Agency.



Thoughts ?

18 Jun 2024 20:18:19
Wow no Chickenfoot etc negative feedback, have I finally left you all speechless that you don't have anything to say against my proposals?
All 3 do make a lot of sense with all teams involved and what they get, as for the 7 unbelievable maybe 8 soon enough we all on this site know who hits that button.

19 Jun 2024 00:12:31
Toronto adds.

19 Jun 2024 02:27:47
LMac0420
Adds to what proposal of my 3?
Maybe the Laughton one I would agree.
The other 2 I think it's about right imo.

19 Jun 2024 02:46:34
Feedback bounces right off you, as does good sense and hockey acumen.

Nice to know I live rent free in your head to the point you reply to yourself regarding your own posts. Hilarious!

I’m not on this site 24-7 like you Pinball, your perspective (or lack thereof) is frightening. You are clearly interpreting things in a manner unique to you and you alone.

Pinball…you really DO need a timeout. You teach nothing, and you learn nothiny. In short, you bring nothing but annoyance to this page. Never interesting, never poignant.

I don’t know anything about Borgen so I have no opinion on the 2nd trade.

Is that the best response you can muster?
Come on you can do better than that, I love how you avoid saying anything about my post, not that I care I really don't as time after time you show me you have zero hockey sense anyways.

I fully respect and very much appreciate the Editor’s comment.

This is a great site, and it is better without an endless daily fill of one poster’s one-sided nonsense.

Onwards and upwards fellow hockey fans?.

We've pretty much figured out you're craving attention and desperately want validation from people on this page.

If counting the # of "unbelievable" or "disagree"s isn't enough of a hint to you that we have no respect for you and your one-sided, narrow minded posts, maybe seeing an editors reply to this will give you a revelation.

And remember Pinball, its never too late to forget your password and lock yourself out of your account. Cheers to everyone else that keeps this site worthwhile.

Montreal trade with flyers
Mtl sends 5th overall Jordan Harris , josh Anderson Filip mesar
To Philly for
12th overall,Travis konecky Morgan frost and Joel farrabe
Philly drafts demidov to play with mishkov
Habs draft : iginla , eiserman, sennecke, catton , helenius or defencemen :pareck , biuum,yakemchuk or Dickinson

17 Jun 2024 12:11:27
Flyers say no. going up 7 spots in the draft doesn't doesn't justify sending konecny frost and farabee. It's pretty lopsided.

18 Jun 2024 00:18:50
I’m suggesting Philly to see if they would want to pair with mishkov

18 Jun 2024 18:55:47
Konecny only has one year left until he is a UFA. it isn't that far off.

04 Jun 2024 17:50:06
Calgary flames offseason:

I'll try to keep it realistic....

To Cgy: 10th overall
To NJD: Jacob Markstrom (50% retained)

To Cgy: pick 40, pick 63
To Seattle: yegor Sharangovich

To Cgy: Morgan Frost, pick 51
To Phi: Andrew Mangiapane (50% retained), pick 62

At 9, flames draft a dman (parekh, dickinson, or yakemchuk).
At 10, Flames draft a fwd (Iginla, Catton, or Lindstrom.

Potentially signing duclair for 2 years at 3.75-4.25.

Resign kylington for 3 years at 2.5-3.

Roll into 2024-2025 looking to flip kuzmenko and other expiring ufas (hanley, miromanov) at deadline.

Huberdeau-Kadri-Kuzmenko
Zary-frost-coronato
Pospisi-backlund-coleman
Pelletier-rooney-hunt

04 Jun 2024 19:38:43
I like the first trade?.

05 Jun 2024 01:18:13
two 2nds for Sharangovich feels a little light ngl especially in a weaker draft

05 Jun 2024 05:30:17
Calgary not trading Sharangovich. Other 2 seem alright. Sign duclair? No thanks. Getting rid of mangiapane would be smart but frost seems like you need add. Hes a ok contract at 50%.

30 May 2024 02:16:52
Edm: nurse(50% ) 2025 1st and 3rd. Phi: konecny. Nurse at 50% can be a second liner. 1st and 3rd should work for Philly rebuild

30 May 2024 03:57:59
Once again 4.6 million for 6 years. How is that to any advantage to the oilers. Seems there is only a handful of teams that retained for multi years. Highest % I found was burns at 20%.

30 May 2024 06:32:03
I understand what you're saying but if edm can get anything for him its a win. Hes 3rd pairing on a weak defense. Sheltered 2nd pairing, very good. Konecny wants 10 million over 7 years or 8.

30 May 2024 14:56:16
Oil can’t afford a 10 mill winger. A team that wants to win aren’t having 4.5 mill in dead cap space.

30 May 2024 14:57:55
Retain 50% give up a 1st and 3rd for someone who you can’t afford to resign
Or try to find a proper D Partner for him and use him in ways that’ll help him/ the team succeed.

Konecny Flyers for Kasper and first round 2024 pick Redwings

29 May 2024 11:25:23
This doesn't make sense for Detroit. They already have DeBrincat and Raymond as their 2 top 6 RH wingers, so why trade for another? And their top forward prospect, Carter Mazur, is also RH. Meanwhile, Detroit, without Kane, has no top 6 LH winger on the roster, with only prospect Berggren who might fill one of those spots. Detroit also lacks size and toughness up front, and even though Konecny plays with an edge, he is small ala Raymond/ DeBrincat.

If Yzerman were to consider trading their #1 pick and Kasper, the return would need to be a younger LH scoring winger with size and toughness, or a younger #2 RH defenseman with some toughness as well, not someone like Konecny, who is redundant to what Detroit already has in their organization.

Philadelphia Trades
Brink

Toronto Trades
NRobertson


Philly and Toronto balancing out needs, Philly is stacked at RWing and thin at LWing, and Toronto the opposite of more LWingers compared to RWingers.



Thoughts ?

24 May 2024 20:46:08
Flyers trade an NHL player with 11 goals and 23 points last season.

Leafs trade an AHL player with 0 goals and 0 points in the NHL last season.

Because "balancing out needs".

24 May 2024 20:50:46
My mistake, I was reading Robertson's playoff stats this season lol.

24 May 2024 22:20:40

NRobertson and Brink are basically the same type of player, same age, both RFAs, and their point totals are basically the same.
One is a LWinger the other is a RWinger is the only difference between both players.
Like I stated Philly has more depth at RWing compared to LWing and visa versa with The Leafs.
Are you still going to try and sell this isn't a fair trade for the other team that isn't Toronto?

Philadelphia Trades
Konecny
Tippet
1st Round Pick 2024

Toronto Trades
Marner*
McMann
1st Round Pick 2024

*Marner would have to waive his NTC to complete the proposal.


Both Teams looking to do something and this would be a big one at The Draft, Flyers get the best player in this proposal and The Leafs get better depth in this proposal.
Curious if anyone believes something this big might happen.


Thoughts ?

08 May 2024 19:22:27
Few reasons why I don't see it working.

1) Philly doesn't seem like it would be a place Marner would do well in. Fans are some of the best in the game, but they also come down hard on their players on a consistent basis. Don't think he'd do well.

2) Philly gives up two of their top 6 forwards in this. Marner needs a guy to pass to and in this deal you get rid of two of his prime candidates he'd be dishing to.


I don't see Marner getting dealt. Leafs likely looking at a coaching change and hoping such a change brings about playoff success. I wish we were clearing out his or Tavares's contract, but I don't see it happening.

Fair enough I looked around other teams and if there was a match "if" Toronto traded Marner, it's more the fans down on Marner then management I believe but who knows.
Truthfully Toronto will be looking what Treliving started when he got here bigger guys with character built around the main pieces, I would seriously go out to sign DeBrusk out of Boston as he is a UFA this offseason, he would be exactly what they need up front imo.
And of course Defense and either live and die with Woll and possibly Hildeby, but I would let Samsonov walk as the pressure in Toronto is too much for him imo.

10 May 2024 21:51:08
Can't see Marner playing under Torts.
