How much of a difference?Of course keeping them would make a difference. Better players make teams better.
Failing to address underlying problems, that was his job. He failed at his job.
Team did not need a miracle worker. It needed basic competence. Fletcher has never provided that.

Atkinson 23-27 50

That's a wash, goals are worth more than assists.
Ghost had 51 points on Arizona, but played 22 minutes, on Philly, more like 30-40 points.
Add one more starter if you can find the cap room.
So we're not talking a jump from 61 to 91 points.

Had Fletcher said he was rebuilding, he would have been gone.
"Trading Ghost wouldn't have made a difference because if the Flyers kept him they would have been to stupid to play him properly" is definitely one way to try and defend this team.Ghost had 51 points on Arizona, but played 22 minutes, on Philly, more like 30-40 points.

Not the way I would go about it, but you do you.
You really think Fletcher hired AV? You think Fletcher could approve a 5x5 contract?
You didn't know that? He also was behind the moon landing hoax.We’re a couple of pages away from learning it was actually Paul Holmgren as the master mind behind the JFK assassination.
When it gets like this I just check out.We’re a couple of pages away from learning it was actually Paul Holmgren as the master mind behind the JFK assassination.
@Striiker don't kill me, but although I loved Ghost, there was absolutely a scenario where trading him made sense.
-that trade, made to appease a lame-duck coach who'd tanked his value, wasn't it.
-If the Flyers were rebuilding, trading him for positive assets would be perfectly reasonable.
-the Flyers weren't rebuilding, as evidenced by their immediate spending of assets on Ristolainen, followed by their signing him to a long extension.
-downgrading at the cost of assets and future flexibility is neither an intelligent rebuild OR go for it move.
I don't deserve that. I've always not been nice to you.I don’t hate you (well I do, but not for this)
