Friedman: Flyers willing to discuss almost anyone but Joel Farabee

[Starat327]

Ah, were back to finding that perfect partner to drag around our "star" defensemen. I thought that logic was unique to just the flyers board itself. Guess not.

While were at it, maybe we can trade Couturier for Bernier.

Marner + Rielly for Provorov + Konecny

You forgot the extension on Rielly and retention on marner.

Marner + Rielly for Provorov + Konecny

*handshake*

Take your hand away!!

This is a good basis for a deal but only if it's Marner + Dermott, and we keep (and extend) Rielly. We need a Robin to Rielly's Batman or vice versa. Swapping Rielly with Provorv puts Provorov in the same position -- he'll be tasked with continually punching above his weight class in Toronto.

Marner is a 90-100 point threat and, likely, the best player in the deal. Rielly and Provorov are a wash.

Marner + Rielly for Provorov + Konecny

As a flyers fan I would do that deal. I think we get the better of each player in the deal.

Even though I consider Rielly and Provorov more of a wash, your honesty is refreshing.

As a Jets fan, something around Konecny for Connor is something I'd be okay with.

Sure, you lose Connor's finishing, but outside of scoring talent Connor doesn't bring as much to the table as Konecny. Meanwhile, it feels as though the Flyers lack actual finishing up front while having several guys who influence the game in ways not easily trackable on the score-sheet. Plus, with Joel Farabee and Morgan Frost on the come-up, some roster variation is nice for the Flyers. The Jets get a player who can fill in for Old Man Blake on the top line and shoulder the load transitionally while freeing up the tiniest bit of extra cap, allowing them to be more proactive in the defense class this year.

The value may not be 100% equal but you can play around with it on either side. I could also see Sanheim for Stanley involved in this as well, given Fletcher and co's affinity for big(ger) bodies and the Jets need for a mobile D

If you're getting Sanheim AND Konecny, there's no way that package coming back doesn't involve Ehlers, for me personally.

TK for KC could work...yes

Sanheim for Stanley is VERY far off...Flyers would not touch that. I fSanheim is moved, it's likely for a RHD or in a bigger package...like part of a deal for Eichel.

 

[Tripod]

Boeser, Schmidt + Van's 2021 1st (#9) for Konecny, Laughton + Myers

This would have the Flyers attention.

Ideally, they likely want to keep Myers....and ADD a RHD for the top pair. But this would have the room talking for sure.

 

[Szechwan]

Uhh no thanks from Vancouver. I can't even imagine how much this would piss off the current core. Boeser goes nowhere.

I don't believe at all that Stanley for Sanheim is equal value. I believe that Stanley may be overrated by current management and coaching while Sanheim may be undervalued, and to both teams that makes up the Goal Chasm between TK and KC

And what makes up the 1.5 million more KC makes?

I could see Sanheim moved..but it won't be for swap for a different LHD

It's 1.5 million dollars. You can have a 5ht round pick, I guess. That 1.5 million has a lot more benefit going from the Jets and absolutely no repercussions for the Flyera

If you remove Sanheim and Stanley from the deal....then agreed.

Yikes.

You guys swapped Laine and Roz for Dubois and it backfired from a production standpoint. Are you sure you want to trade your best goal scorer AGAIN for a feisty winger who can chip in some offense?

 

[Curufinwe]

I think this is just Friedman throwing crap at the wall to see what sticks.

He's just saying what he's hearing. Fletcher isn't going to email him a list of all the players he's making available.

 

[Andrew Wiggin]

Sam Girard and Nazem Kadri for Sean Couturier extended.

naw....we would rather just extend Couts ourselves

 

[leeroggy]

Ehlers

You think Sanheim is bringing you a player who has 104 points in his last 118 games and is a +29 while Sanheim is -18 in the same span.

you are right...we should take Stanley instead

Put Makar in that offer

Travis Sanheim for Mitch Marner?

Is Travis Konecny and the 13th overall coming in the Uber with him?

 

[ArchAngel55]

They allowed the most goals in the league, all their goalies had sub-.900 save percentages, so was the defense in front of them bad as well? Are the Flyers looking to upgrade on defense?

Most of it wasn't the goaltending. The defense constantly turned the puck over and it was quickly put in the net. The forwards also didn't come back or completely left guys open. They all looked lost in the system.

 

[ArchAngel55]

He is MASSIVELY overrated by a large portion of the Flyers fanbase. There are people on this board who constantly proclaim that he is better than Provorov, and we even have someone this offseason going on and on about he's better than Seth Jones. He's a decent 2nd pairing defender but he is massively inconsistent and as you mentioned watching him play sometimes you wonder if he has any hockey sense whatsoever.

I think part of his problem is he's paired with another young guy in Myers. He would benefit from being paired with a vet.
