King Knut Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 I don't quite get this deal unless Tampa needed to shed his salary for next year. Val isn't a goal scorer either. He's a decent addition to the Flyers if they were trying to push this year, but that's pretty unrealistic still even after shutting out the worst team in the NHL.

icehole Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 8 minutes ago, murraycraven said: Looks like TB also sent a draft pick since we are taking on the additional year for Filppula . Now we have our 10th center on the roster... If he can regain his form a great deal by Hexy but still a bit of a reclamation project. 4th rounder and a conditional 7th. Feel like we helped out TB on this one a bit too... So filpulla has another year on contract at $5m and the flyers retained some of streit's comtract???? I don't know if I like this deal.

This makes 14 expendable and 78 slides up to 3C. Wouldn't surprise me if 14 heads to the Oilers. Obviously 14 and 51 play different roles but there is only so much room for $4M+ centers on the team for next year. @Brelic Good point on being protected.

sekkes85 Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 You would think we could have gotten at least a 2nd. This helps the Bolts a lot more than us. Not going to hate on it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philly29 Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 It is a win win. We got a pick and the Flyers got a guy to help them make a push to get into the playoffs and get bounced lol. Seriously though the only thing that makes me nervous is that he is still signed for next year at a 5mil hit. So especially if Streit is a rental it is a good move as long as we don't fck ourselves with the cap now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

off_the_post Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Is it too much to ask that MDZ regains his form in the last 20 games assuming he is the de facto choice to fill 32's roster spot? That is of course unless he is traded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know the answer but good to raise the question. From what I'm seeing on Twitter, Filppula is required to be protected. Eating part of Streit's salary is fine... it's just for the last 20 games or so. But taking on an aging $5M center and needing to protect him? Don't like that part at all.

AJgoal Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 I think the Flyers should have gotten more here. Filppula does step in and become the 5th highest scoring player on the Flyers, but the Flyers sent a somewhat valuable trade chip, held 50% of his salary, took on an aging, declining player on a heavy contract, and only got a 4th and a conditional 7th? I have no idea what's going on right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

off_the_post Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 I think this will help PP2 over the next 20 games and next year. Either way the kid in me is now very anxious to watch the next game to see how he plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
