Hell no are you crazy i can barely stand to watch the Flyers for 60 minutes. Just asking no harm in that right?? Flyers could use a bottom pair defenseman...not sure if the two i asked about are much of an upgrade but i know i never want to see Gus back out there again. Ever. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyercanuck Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 3 hours ago, OccamsRazor said: So rumor i seen is that Ottawa is not happy with team and maybe looking to shake the lineup with a trade. So i wonder if they would do a Erik Gustafsson for Erik Gudbranson or Josh Brown trade. Just a wonder....gives them another right hand shot on the backend. Part of me would love Gudbranson on Philly (he's one of my best friends nephew). But he couldn't skate back when he was drafted 3rd overall. And now he's nearing 30.

OccamsRazor Posted January 28, 2021 Author Share Posted January 28, 2021 Just now, flyercanuck said: Gudbranson is tough as nails too. And the Flyers need that a right hand shot with some grit and size hell he can't skate worse than Prosser right? I'm think a nice spot on the bottom pair but i would be thinking just swapping players. Gus (3 mill) for Gudbranson (4 mill). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zzeke Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 To be clear, all those words were from Eklund, such as: Who wants Letang? What would you give for him? There is no imploration for the Flyers. It's just interesting to see what is happening to a big Division rival. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruxpin Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 If Ottawa wants to trade us Stuetzle, I'd oblige them. (Ain't happening) I think Tkachuk is stuck in a bad situation and would listen, but I highly doubt he's someone they're looking to move. Chabot, of course, but same as above. I agree that Gudbradson could be interesting. I agree he'd fit in nicely on the third pair. But our problem is we really need a top 4 (top 2) to play alongside Provorov. That condition is exacerbated by Myers being out. So two defensemen are playing in higher positions than they have any business doing. Outside of the above, I don't think I bother picking up the phone. Maybe in Dadonov, but he's done exactly nothing to impress so far. I'm a little surprised, actually. But no, Ottawa is still a hot mess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is Kevin's Hayes cousin I think. That is why Kevin said he never was a Bruins fan he was always a fan of who Keith was playing for either the Blues or Yotes. He would be a nice perfect Flyer I think. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is just it - Ottawa doesn't have much people would want and won't make their team "better" by dealing those pieces away. Then the question becomes what is a trading partner sending to Ottawa? Say the Flyers had interest in Gudbranson - what are they giving up (spoiler alert: don't say "Gustaffsssoonnnn")? Whether by accident or design, Ottawa is in a Pittsburgh-style Long Tank at this point. Edited January 29, 2021 by radoran 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After he does, his game changes, becomes conservative, and forgets what got him there Maybe its a coaching thing. They try to develop the player, so he is more focused on doing what he's told, then playing his game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zzeke Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 From Eklund this morning - Hextall, the leading candidate for Penguins GM job Flyers fans...this one might be tough to take, but Hexy may soon be steering the team that is enemy #1.
