Miscellaneous NHL Discussion XCI: Bring Your Own Mustard

Gonna get the Huberdeau with the sword going through his back painting soon. The Flames are having a poor season as is Huberdeau individually.

Extension didn’t even kick in yet. Still can’t believe how many people liked that trade for Calgary.

Weird a playoff contender still finds a way to add draft capital.

Crazy how other teams understand that concept, mean while chuckles continues to give the flyers a good "weinering"

 

[Deadpool8812]

That's a lot to give up for a player on the downside of his career

With what wiener? He's already proven he lacks the standard equipment that goes with it, so I can only assume that's missing as well.

Just a real smart trade by STL. Getting a good haul for a player that has no future with them

Yup and now 3 first rounders this year to boot. Could add another 1st or 2nd for barabeshev. That’s how you retool. The top 6 is still pretty decent too…much better than ours at least lol

 

[Deadpool8812]

STL got a better haul for ROR than we did for Giroux....

 

[Beef Invictus]

I was told we still had time to go before moves were made.


Anyway, that's one less team to sell to.

 

[Flyerfan4life]

remember when some here said the Rags were aging out and needed a full rebuild. while we were primed to contend..

lol well that worked out well...

*looks at standings*..

chucks just waiting to see who wants to offload their worn out old dogs or face punchers

 

[Magua]

It continually blows my mind that teams that have won the Cup in this decade of the Flyers winning 1 round are drafting a lot more than the "rebuilding"
Flyers.

 

[win88ice2004]

if ROR/noel gets that.....you absolutely have to move Hayes at $3.5....


Follow STL path...please chuck....

 

[dats81]

Unfortunately, the prime targets like O'Reilly, Meier, Chychrun... have to go first. Whoever the Flyers make available will only be seen as a consolation prize to those who miss out.

St.Louis are doing the text-book rebuild and will be competitive again in no time. THe Flyers should have gone that route by trading G and Jake 3 years ago. It's easier to sell that to your fanbase if you won a cup recently though.

 

[Ghosts Beer]

Reminiscent of the Adam Oates trade.

But I actually don’t think Toronto gave up an obscene amount considering they’re in a Cup-or-bust mission.

We will trade our first for aging vet instead. Oh nevermind we already got Fisto.

All while giroux is and always has been a much better player

 

[DancingPanther]

SJ on the cusp of trading Timo Meier while Chuck rubs one out in his shrine to Nick f***ing Seeler. You can't even be this bad of a GM in NHL 23. Your owner would fire you

 

[bennysflyers16]

2 obvious things watching what the Blues are doing

Fire Chuck and all management on the spot

Block Deady, this is a massive loss for his defense of Uncle Charles.

Toronto also got Acciari, and ROR didn’t have trade protection.

Giroux has had a better career, but has never had a playoff run like ROR did in 2019.

3 years ago they were a top 10 team heading into the playoffs when Covid hit. St Louis are missing the playoffs and trading off their UFA vets. That’s not similar to where the Flyers were in 2020.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

I don’t think the Leafs trade for RoR if he still has term left. The Leafs are covering 25 percent of the money owed to him. Good luck getting that for Hayes. It’s really not a good comparable.
Chuck is to stupid to work a trade like that anyway with all the moving parts.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

In the last four years St. Louis has won a SC, made the playoffs all four years including last year where they were one of the best teams in the league. They’re willing to admit it’s over & they need a full rebuild meanwhile the Flyers without any of the success are still kicking the can.

The Flyers have essentially re-signed nearly all of their would be potential UFA trade chips over that time sans Giroux (Couturier, Laughton, Ristolainen, Sanheim, etc.).
