JVR will do nicely on the 3rd line, especially with young talent pushing to take his spot. Coots isnt going anywhere. I see him as the next captain and team leader.  Giroux? Thanks for your service, go have a chance to win a cup

 

 

Atkinson talks about the passion of Philadelphia fans, says "I think winning solves a lot of problems."

with what, we have nothing left? No picks. No assets

Tarsenko for JvR and a B prospect.

The money favors St Louis, the production will favor slightly PHI.

Or straight up.

JvR is a 25/55 guy in a bad year. Last year he was very good 5 v 5 and his play driving was maybe his best season.

If we're moving deck chairs and rolling dice...why not?

The Ristolainen trade is still terrible but this one is a major improvement.

 

Team needed a goal scorer with some grit more than a floating assist machine.

 

Very surprised CLS pulled this trigger. I suppose that they are hoping Vee becomes a setup man for Laine but there's still a lot to get through.

 

I hope Ristolainen brings an improved game under an actual NHL coaching staff.

Are you going to bump Allison out the lineup?

More palatable contract for Atkinson...good, hard nosed player who puts the puck in the net here and there....and we GOT RID OF JAKE! What's not to like? I almost feel like the Flyers won something. Honestly. Pop the champagne, indeed! The Voracek Error is over!

I don't hate it, but I prefer:

 

Giroux, Couturier, Atkinson

Farabee, Hayes, Konecny

Lindblom, Frost, Allison

JVR,  Laughton, NAK/Wisdom/Foerster

 

Provorov/Ellis

I just threw it together i what whatever works.

 

They need to keep the puck out their net first and then put it in the other net.

 

Cam put up 15 goals on a not so good team would have been 5th on Flyers behind Farabee, Coots, JVR and Giroux.

 

I didn't realize that Atkinson was a 40 goal scorer in 2018-19 the last full season.

 

Well this sounds like an upgrade in my mind always loved Cam's hustle for a guy who isn't very big.

It was straight up.  No picks involved and no retained salary.

So what is wrong with Atkinson if CBJ are moving him straight up for the fan favorite JV?

 

Wouldn't surprise me if this is a full teardown in CLS and we see others - Laine, Voracek...

Maybe not, maybe he plays his off wing?

Also Tarasenko has years of success at the NHL level and Allsion though I like him has games of NHL experience.

 

I think if you can add Vlad and keep the cap about the same, you try to do it. 

So if this were to happen, I doubt it does,  I would push Allison down the depth chart and I wouldn't think twice.

Honestly, at this point in their careers,  I probably stick with JVR over Tarasenko.  And I definitely stick with JVR + B prospect + Allison over Tarasenko.

 

I was willing to do it for Voracek, but I'm not as willing to overlook Tarasenko's health on this one.  If I was more sure Vlad would play as previous, then yeah, but I really have no confidence there.

If Fletch knew, prior to all of us melting down, that he had the Voracek trade in place, and that the cost for Risto would be picks he didn't need for the Voracek trade, is this good?

I don't think so.  We still have Risto. Lol 

 

IF I'm wrong (wouldn't be the first or last time) and change of scenery and voice helps him be even half of what the Sabres drafted him for, then this whole thing in aggregate is actually masterful.   

 

I'll take the Ellis and Atkinson part already, though.

Glad he is finally outta here....But is that really the best we could do?

Probably.   And I think it's awesome, actually.   We didn't give up a pick and we didn't retain.  And we got a shooter that plays hard and can help significantly on the PK.   And has a lower cap hit.

 

The only downside--and this probably saved having to use a pick--is the longer term.   We probably won't be thrilled with this when he's 36.   But for now, I'll take it.

So his contract is going to last forever, and ever, and ever....?

I just watched the sequel to that the other night.

 

Dr. Sleep Ewen Mcgregor....talk about a strange movie.

 

I still can't over this move the Blue Jackets even scout Jake.

 

CA is a lunch pail put his nose down will do or try anything forward. Going to love his play....and if he can find his scoring touch this will be outstanding.

 

Is it possible that Chuck called it a night went home and Holmgren new his passwords high jacked Chucks identity and he himself pulled off the Risto trade???

 

Just the contract between the trades we saw go down is what i am saying.

Ok. Time's up. There's your moment. There's still work to be done on this franchise that has greatly underachieved for the past decade.
