Terrible trade for Philly. Why would they do this?

Slightly underwhelming from when the news started trickling out at first. Cool that Flames are going for it a bit, and the Flyers will have plenty of cap to work with beginning in the offseason. Wonder what the picks involved are. Pelletier is a nice piece, Kuzmenko will be interesting. Frost is a really good buy-low candidate, you could feel it coming. Farabee being that young with a solid track record doesn't make 5 mil seem so bad, especially with the cap going up.
 
I would've done Hoglander & a pick for Farabee. I think he's got real potential as a top 6 FWD, and still only 24.

Getting him & Frost for that seems great for the Flames. Pelletier isn't bad but was on waivers & hasn't really established himself. How do they move that package of younger players & not atleast prioritize a 1st?

Man, when Zary and Bahl get healthy again the Flames are going to be deep. They also have cap room and pics and add depth on the blueline if they are still in the playoffs come deadline.
 
Lol at that 7th included. As a Flyers fan this should help them suck even more. Farabee is having a disastrous year but he’s been a firm top 6 player for a few seasons. Frost may have some juice left. His tenure with the Flyers was tumultuous. He was often jerked around but he also never took that next step and he probably never would have in Philly. Flyers lose the better players but those players hopefully would have been depth players in ~5 years. I’m okay with this trade if the Flyers are picking in the top 5 the next few years.
