Proposal: Young center with good top 6 potential to Philadelphia

Sorry for offtopic, but is your avatar from Kafka's short story?

Not only the avatar but the name too.

Hope not MM...

Well, you guys definitely don't trade MM. Although I'm here as an interested party on the Sabres side.

Ah, yeah, read it more than 30 years ago, so forgot the name.

I doubt he'll agree to play for you, you don't have palm trees...

Yeah, worth reading again. As is the trial. Joseph K another of Kafkas tragic Characters.

Young top 6 centers never get traded. You have to draft them.

Seguin?

If I were Briere, I'd be making calls to Buffalo to try to swing a deal for Cozens. I think he needs a change of scenery and Buffalo needs to shake things up. And Torts could be the right guy to help Cozens improve his defensive reliability and positioning.

Josh Norris is an interesting target as well. The obvious concern there is his injury history, combined with the long-term contract he's on.

Some guys that I'd be interested in, but am not sure would ever be available (so please don't tear me apart if these are totally unrealistic):

* Matt Barzal
* Mason McTavish, Trevor Zegras
* Dylan Larkin (sounds like the rumors aren't really true)
* Cole Sillinger
* Quinton Byfield (could the Flyers wow the Kings with a massive package to pry him away? probably a pipe dream)

The problem is Flyers have picks but don't have players and prospects good enough for this kind of a trade. Teams trade good players for picks only when they're gonna rebuild, but even rebuilding teams don't trade good young players.

Cozens is probably good variant because he struggles, and Buffalo is a mess.
