Why else make such a trade if clearing cap isn’t the goal? You’ve pointed out, as have others, the Flames get the better players, no? Five mil to add to the club’s dollars to chase free agents. Must be the plan and hope to turn the club around quick with smart UFA signings.
Unfortunately there is little hope turning the Flyers around quickly. Fletcher and Hextall killed the organization. How the Flyers fare in the future will be based upon guys from the the last few drafts including the one coming up as they have a million picks. It will take time until those players are firm NHLers. I’ve always been of the mind that the Flyers need to trawl the bottom for a few years and pick up blue chip talent. Honestly a trade like this will help them in that regard.

And making more cap available for July 1. How else does a trade like this make sense if not to better situate for free agency?

Makes a lot of sense. Flyers are an incestous dogshit organization, that retained every living soul after firing Fletcher.

Better yet promoted his right hand man in Briere, and shouted “changes” from the roof tops.

In short, they are morons.
 
Because they have one goal. Make Emperor Torts happy as a pig in shit.

The team needs a hell of a lot more than cap space to be good.
And how does that idea make more sense than clearing cap for July 1?
 
If a 1st rounder isn't involved then wow. Conroy trade 2 players that have been healthy scratch and/or put on waivers for 2 former 1st round picks that have been full time NHLers the past few seasons.
Pelts was on waivers yes but that's because he had a horrible camp. He went and dominated the AHL for a couple months before getting a call up. He's been playing on the first line for a little while now and has not looked at all out of place
