NHL Talk Miscellaneous NHL Discussion CII: Post-Trade Deadline Edition (POLL: Pick the 2024 Cup winner) -- consolidated transactions threads in OP

[SolidSnakeUS]

Big, bad, Risto has missed 75 games thru injury in the three seasons since the Flyers traded for him.

Ghost has only missed eight in that time.

Playoff Risto has been great... wait...

It’s not so much getting rid of Gostisbehere. He is/was a secondary player not a cornerstone player. So those guys do have shelf life. It’s more the process leading up & after that was absolutely horrendous with no hindsight needed.

You gave up on him in the years leading up to the trade essentially advertising to the entire league you were done with him. So then you forced yourself into a situation where you had to pay for him to leave. Then you used more draft compensation & the cap savings to get out & get a worse defensemen in Ristolainen. You did this awhile the team was on the decline which again wasn’t hard to predict & it blew up completely in their faces.

This is it. End of discussion.

Yea 50pt defenseman who are above average on defense + outstanding on the PP is definitely a secondary piece on any team duh.

He’s no Zito

Flyers GM Candidate: Up-and-Coming Bill Zito

Bill Zito, the assistant general manager for the Blue Jackets, could be an under-the-radar candidate for the Flyers’ general manager position. By Jordan Hall

www.nbcphiladelphia.com

Why Zito's not a fit​

The Flyers look like they want a candidate with a résumé already deep in general manager experience - a GM that has been there, done that on pulling off big trades and making tough decisions.

"I think you have to look at everything," Flyers president Paul Holmgren said Tuesday. "We're very focused on the trade deadline coming up on Feb. 25 and we think there could be some opportunities out there and, frankly, we don't want to miss out."

Zito doesn't have the track record quite yet as he hasn't held a role higher than AGM.

I’m giving him some time to apologize to Ghost but if he doesn’t then we jump him

The things no one could or would have predicted, or never said anything about out loud, are somehow piling up, eh

The "negative" people are again proving to be rational and reasonable. I think that's positive.

I have another adjective. "exhausting"

[PALE PWNR]

[DancingPanther]

[dragonoffrost]

Is this not a sign of the apocolypse?

 

[Curufinwe]

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

I wonder what @Myrtman thinks of this since he said Ghost wasn’t a NHL defender the day of the “trade” after Chuck paid Arizona to take him

Sure would be nice to have a guy like Ghost on our team

Then we wouldn’t have Risto on the roster. You know the guy built for the playoffs.

Get a punching bag or something. You have so much rage in you, young man.

My reaction to missing the playoffs

 

[usahockey22flyers]

Not great news that Florida won the division.

I don't think their pick can be lower than 25/26 now right?

The teams that did not qualify for the playoffs the previous season (picks 1–16)….
The teams that made the playoffs in the previous season but did not win either their division in the regular season or play in the Conference Finals (picks 17–24 up to 28)….
The teams that won their divisions in the previous season but did not play in the Conference Finals (potentially picks 25–28)….
The teams that lose in Conference Finals (picks 29 and 30)….
The team that was the runner-up in the Stanley Cup Finals (pick 31)
The team that won the Stanley Cup in the previous season (pick 32)

The Islanders have a -18 goal differential & the Capitals have a -37 as the last two teams in out of the Metro.
