Can someone send me the list of rebuilding teams that traded their 2nd round picks for 3 years straight when rebuilding?
Thanks
Thanks
Contrarians probably drooling over this nothing letter that management ghost wrote for Torts.
Like clockwork."Now, I'm not going to lie to you - and I want to be clear about this - we're not there yet. This year was the first step in building the future of the Flyers and restoring our reputation as one of the most respected teams in Hockey."
Gee, sure sounds like "rebuilding" to me. Notice NO mention of playoffs, no mention of "we're a competitive team again," no aggressive reload.
So who is running this team?
Oh look. The Flyers did something stupid & the contrarians are defending it.
wheres the C.?

Risto was done before Torts was hired.Rebuilding teams do not trade 1 2 plus for Risto
Rebuilding teams don;t sign above player long term at 5m per making him untradeable,
Rebuilding teams do not trade 2 3 4 for one dimensional d-men
Rebuilding teams do not give 4th line goons with no scoring ability 4 year deals
Right after the 4?wheres the C.?
Risto was done before Torts was hired.
Oh look. The Flyers did something & fans complained about it.
And since Torts is in charge that means the TDA trade is on him.The TDA trade was done after Torts was hired, and it's not a move rebuilding teams do.
it's weird because to me, from the get torts made it pretty clear it was a rebuild. even contradicting some things fletcher said. it's like the front office has some rule where they can't say rebuild. but torts don't give a shit. im not patting the coaching staff on the back but there pretty much the only reason the team is doing better this year, with respect to some players progressing just a bit."Now, I'm not going to lie to you - and I want to be clear about this - we're not there yet. This year was the first step in building the future of the Flyers and restoring our reputation as one of the most respected teams in Hockey."

well said. asset management comment you made holds alot of weight. i didn't even consider this at all and when i read it i felt like a dumbass. im sure torts believes everything he said but it doesn't matter at all.“First step” is such a vague phrase that can mean many things. A rebuild is an asset management thing. They haven’t shown that part at all, which means vague coach speak phrases are meaningless.
I pity the people who are too naive to see a PR money grab play for what it is.
yea. i beleive this with every cent im worth. that rabbit hole article made it so damn clear that every old guard/tainted blood line of this club is true.Because Clarke isn’t dead yet
So teams that give goon 4 year deals and trade 2 3 4 for ada is different strategy than trading picks for risto. I appreciate the fan fiction.Risto was done before Torts was hired.

The "make DH acknowledge the TDA trade isn't one rebuilding teams make" challenge (Impossible)The TDA trade was done after Torts was hired, and it's not a move rebuilding teams do.
