BobbyClarkeFan16 Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 I was hoping that Hextall would bring Kimmo Timonen onboard as a defensive coach to teach the young guys, especially those in Lehigh Valley. I still have hopes that Haktard will smarten up this offseason and send Murphy and Laperriere packing. As for trade deadline, for me, it's all about getting rid of dead weight and bringing in more guys from Lehigh Valley. If Hextall can get 5th through 7th round picks for Weise, Lehtera and Filppula and then call up Vecchione and NAK, that's a start. As for defense, if he can move Meatshield (Manning) and then call up Sanheim, that should be it. I posted on another forum that I would LOVE to see him try to get a guy like Galchenyuk from Montreal because I think he could be an ideal fit in Philadelphia. He and Lindblom could be interchangeable with one another, depending on the game and I think his speed and skill could really be a fit. As well, the Flyers have good luck with left wingers from Montreal.....lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you though, Boston is about to be very disappointed in their ROI. That's generally the way of things with deadline acquisitions anyway. They very rarely become the missing piece folks seem to think they might be when they first come over. The only real exceptions are players joining an already established core in a lesser role. Nash on the other hand is the prime example of an awful overpayment by the Bruins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJgoal Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 In a related(ish) move, the Blues trade Statsny to Winnipeg to recoup the first they sent to the Flyers at the draft. So barring a really weird final 20 games, looks like the pick the Flyers got for Schenn will actually be higher than their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless, of course, the Blues are sellers and finish inside the bottom 10 (or get inside the bottom 10 through lottery). They're 10 points up on Florida (21st), so I highly doubt that they will finish lower. But the lottery could be kind to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, but then it pushes to next year with no protection, with an added third as well. Could you imagine if they land in the top 10, only to win the lottery next year?

RonJeremy Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 If the Rangers got all that for a soft , 34 year old underachieving guy like Nash, we can clean up if we have to trade Simmonds due to cap issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
off_the_post Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 I have to admit this trade deadline has been a lot different than what I envisioned at the start of the season. I figured the Flyers would be a bubble team but ultimately sellers. I figured 51 was going to go for a late 2nd or 3rd. I thought one prospect dman was gone for a prospect forward. I had thought Read would likely have gone for another pick. I don't like the concept of keep a pending UFA as your proxy rental player but I think that is what the Flyers will do/have done with 51. We are very fortunate we have a team looking like it is playoff bound with a strong stable of prospects, some cap room next year (I believe with Read and Flip coming off the books), and two first round draft picks in this coming draft. Add that to productive years from 28, 93 and a surprising, in my opinion, realization of 14 being a top end forward and the organization looks pretty solid.
