If Isles add both Boychuk and Leddy, hard to argue Flyers are better than them right now

At least we were kind enough to take Streit and AMac off their hands to make room.

Hopefully he's not a believer in laissez faire defense.

NYI trades are always a gamble because players either don't want to stay there or don't take discounts too and the ownership won't sign big contracts (well wise ones atleast)

More or less. I think the Flyers are still better than them beyond paper.

I'm loving how everyone is underrating this team. Yeah, we have made very small, minor moves. Big whoop. The biggest additions to this team is the maturity of players like Giroux, Simmonds, Voracek, Couturier, and Schenn. If they progress even more than last year--look out.

A full/healthy year from G and Vinny make a big difference.

I'm thinking he gets shipped out rather quickly once Ghost or Morin come up and show they belong here. Hextall is going to look to cut caproom on D sooner or later.

Do you actually see a team trading for his contract? No trying to be negative but it seems like a dream.

I disagree.

The Isles got a lot better but they still don't have close to the depth up front that we do.

Plus the D men we have coming up in our system will likely assert us right back over them anyway should they look better than us this year.

I don't think his contract is that bad tbh. Looking at current rosters a team like Carolina could really use him. Someone will have the need for him should we look to move him in the next few years.

It would be the Isles luck to put together a half decent team in the MacDavid draft though.

because hextall doesn't want to deal 2nd and 3rd round picks like they were worthless.

Reinhart/ Leddy
Pulock

or

Coburn/ Grossman
AMAC/ Streit
Schenn/ MDZ
Shultz

???????????

Yes, I too would trade Shultz for Pulock but that isn't part of the question.

Looking at this year only I like the Isle's D better, but we undoubtably have stronger D prospects coming up. In 2-3 years when we're looking at something like this it wont even be a worthy comparison.

Ghost/Coburn
Hagg/Morin
Sanheim/Streit
