Sounding like Tuch and Washington.

8 X $10.5 is not great for the Zegras extension

I think most expected that, other than the Flyers early in the season evidently.

This is a team that would be happy with all Seelers and Cates. This management has no idea what getting better actually looks like.

Looking at some of these contracts being handed out and some of these deals, hi Chicago, watching and doing nothing might be their best bet

 

[Rebels57]

There hasnt been a single big move or signing yet I would want them to be in on at the prices paid.

Nemec? Nope
Byram? Nope
Kyrou? Nope
Tuch? Double Nope
Raddysh? Triple Nope
Tkachuk? Quadruple Nope

Not the worst idea right now. Seems like a lot of mistakes being made. Unless you see what is happening and become a pure seller like I think they should.

 

[BernieParent]

I would like to think that Briere has the criteria for Konecny waiving his NMC and that he is in talks with the teams that would fulfill it. But I have caused myself to be disappointed far too many times with this organization to consider it possible.

What about the teams trading them away?

What do you mean pay?

I want to know why Tippett and Ristolainen are still on the roster, at the price people are paying for these knobs.

They should absolutely be trying to sell some of their pieces at the prices these teams are paying

 

[Curufinwe]

Shame the 7 year max rule doesn't kick in until September.

8 years for 30 year old 60 point guys is crazy

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

It would seem Ottawa and the Flyers are good trade partners fit wise. Something around Risto for Cozens.

 

[DancingPanther]

Briere has made 917 phone calls

 

[renberg]

Some of these teams are looking at the rising cap like a kid does when they get their allowance. They can’t wait to spend it.

The dollars are just as stupid. It will be like 2 seasons before he is a 50 point guy

Tippett is on the roster because he provides more value to the Flyers than any of the offers they've received, assuming they've received any.

Risto probably won't be on the roster by Friday.

 

[Rebels57]

I assume the add from the Flyers would be substantial in a Risto-Cozens swap.

 

[TheKingPin]

Ottawa is one of the few teams we match well with in that they have more centers than they might need.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Sounds like he’s gone. I can’t really blame him. Winnipeg looks like a dead end situation at this point. Sounds like he’s pretty open though to where he’ll go.

 

[GKJ]

Frank mentions Calgary and the Flyers here but he’s connecting McTavish to Montreal and Minnesota because they have now-assets. Kind of veiled here that Anaheim not into futures.

 

[CutOnDime97]

So McTavish is actually going to fetch a decent return? Wild.

AND people think he's a centre. Who knew?
