Flyers have already shopped Risto, here’s the best offer so far,

Surprised San Jose gave up a 3rd (better of Col and Edm 3rd rd picks) and 6th.
Liljegren is a former #17 pick, but at 25 couldn't keep a starting job.
2x3, where Benning is a 2x1.25 left on his deal, so Toronto clears $1.75M off their cap this year and next year.
And they can clear another $1.25 by sending Benning to the AHL.

A 3rd gets you a terrible rental Defenseman at the deadline. Liljegren is just fine, but still better than that. It's not a steal or anything, but it seems about right to me for a young guy who won't kill you. Especially considering they took Benning back, who is horrendous.

Also feels like it has upside for a return next year if they can turn him around.
