Mcavoy can’t even play defense this season. He’s terrible out there and I’m watching them every game. His stick is where plays go to die offensively and he’s lost defensively. I don’t know what’s going on.

Would we be getting RIAL or TPS?

Sanheim doesn’t fit in with the rebuild of the Flyers imo. If we pay up I wonder if we could land him.
To Phi:
2025 2nd
Ritchie
Girard ($5)
Wood ($2.5)
To Col:
Sanheim ($6.25x6)
Then go all in on Gibson as well.
To Ana
2026 1st
Georgiev ($3.4)
Foudy
To Col
Gibson (50%, $3.2x3)
We save $1.45m, improve our defense and goaltending with players with term and in this case very reasonable cap hits.
This season we could role:
Toews-Makar
Sanheim-Malinski
Kylington-Manson

That's a lot of assets to pay for a marginal upgrade in D and goal. I'd argue making Kylington a regular and relying on Malinski on the 2nd pair actually makes our D worse.

You either go for a clear upgrade, or you don’t bother. Unfortunately there aren’t a lot of options available that don’t also come with considerable risk.
Coach - the players want him gone imo

I'm still not entirely sure what Knob-Block did so radically different from Woodcroft, and really, what Woodcroft did so radically different from Tippett. The recurring theme seems to be "the goaltending got better."

Dude is living the NHL dream!
Although at some point, he may want to go home and get some fresh threads.
I don't think he's quite lived his dream until the Flyers snag him. That's what he considers his hometown.

Girard isn’t a negative value player, he has utility and provides solid top 4 minutes. He can also be used as a trade trip later on. So a younger top 4 defender, a prospect I would consider a blue chip and a second is pretty solid value imo.
