King Knut Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 So first Hartman, now Bailey. Something else is is definitely coming. it could be that TK and Provo are holding out together and Fletch is clearing space for them, but Fletcher’s still short a roster spot with no one with real professional experience to take it... and he’s still got more D-Men than he can carry.

Just saying. could also be trying to make room for Provorov's monster contract. With Fletcher, you can count on $2M too much for 2 years too many and a NMC. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to imagine that Hagg is better-suited to be the 7th than Ghost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJgoal Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Just now, ruxpin said: I wonder. There's really no sense to trading Ghost. The team is clearly going for it. And you won't get the value back from him that makes sense. What do you have open? 3RW. Who are you going to bring in to fill that slot, that provides as much on-ice value as Ghost? Nylander is too expensive. Even so, Ghost has been equally as productive from the back end. Nylander won't get his usual point totals on the 2nd PP unit. So you're downgrading the team there. A Ghost trade ONLY made sense before the Hayes move. Trade Ghost for a young 2C - Aho, Karlsson... Then it makes sense because the value is similar and you have the cap space to play with. Now, there's none of that. Of course, the fact that it doesn't make sense, given what we've seen so far, probably mean it's going to happen. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoachX Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Only trade value Ghost has is bringing back a top 6 guy. He would probably be part of a package. I have no idea who or what , but it just seems logical Hold out hope for a blockbuster, but expect that the team stands pat. I volunteer to drive the trash truck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well from Toronto's side if they're trading Kapanen for Hagg the Flyers would have to add a 2nd rounder. As for Ghost, if you're going to trade him then send him to a Western conference team where you're not going to play against him as much as you would if he was in Montreal or Toronto. I can't see Toronto because of their cap situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well they can want all they want they want but he has only put up 44 points with 20 goals once and doesn't have a lot of trade value I don't think and Hagg can play in the bottom 4 which to me has more trade value than a 3rd line winger. Kapanen has already been traded once. So I am in no way getting worked up over him they can take it or leave it I would find another taker for Hagg they need defensemen more than the Flyers. And Hagg is on a nice affordable deal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Often wishful thinking. Sometimes the answer to "why did the chicken cross the road?" is simply "he was walking that direction and didn't give two ####s about the road" and nothing more. But some like to put meaning to why a potato is shaped as it is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
