Proposal: Rangers - Flyers

[Pavel Buchnevich]

We're not a rebuilding team. Right now he has more value on the team despite his frustrating decline in play.

I feel like his contract is so restrictive that it's worth it to lose whatever value that transaction would lose us to have the cap space available to make moves to improve the team, whether center or elsewhere, and then we can backfill that by trading Othmann or Emery or whoever to get the player we need.

I really don't see the situation where we win the Cup with Zibanejad as our 1C, unless it's completely in spite of him or he has a big wake up call soon.

I don't agree, this is probably their best chance to win a cup in the last 30 years. This sounds like a post from a notorious Rangers poster that loves creative trades (won't name him), it's beneath you.

No you're not. Chris Drury might.

He already has (Justin Braun for a 3rd).

flyers aren't doing this, mika isn't accepting this.

the only reason the flyers would have any interest at all in mika is because it feels like he puts up half his season point totals against them every year. but...they're still not looking to add a guy who's gonna be out of his prime as they get to their target window of contention. definitely not for younger pieces they anticipate being part of that. there's also the issue of him not exactly fitting the mindset torts wants in his lineup.
