No I mean exactly what I said.

Then you would be wrong because a 2nd and a 3rd is a possibility.

Not a great deal, but necessary to get a legit NHL goalie

Especially since every GM knew they had Hexy by the short hairs.

Makes me wonder if Hextall will even consider re-signing him. I wonder what happens if they trade his rights after the season.
- FlyerFan16

Do his rights even have any value? That qualifying offer is way too high. He's basically a pending UFA

If Mazrek wins 6 playoff games he was definitely worth a 3rd. If they resign him then he's the goalie going forward an extra 3rd round pick for your primary goalie is a steal.
- jstross


Winning 6 playoff games would make it a 2nd, not a 3rd. If the FLyers make the playoffs this year and Mzarek wins 5 regular season games it becomes a 3rd.

Arizona has all the cap room in the world. And if Raanta walks they need someone they have some control over. It's not impossible.

sure, but Chayka would probably rather just wait until July 1st since he knows that he won't be qualified.

LOL

DET guaranteed no less than a 4th round for Mrazek. If PHI makes playoffs and Mrazek wins 5 games for PHI in reg season, 4th becomes a 3rd. If PHI advances to CF, and Mrazek wins six playoff games, the 3rd becomes a 2nd. If PHI re-signs him next season, DET gets PHI 3rd in 19.

The relevant part is "If PHI makes playoffs and Mrazek wins 5 games for PHI in reg season, 4th becomes a 3rd.

Two 3rd picks is a possibility.

Man I don’t love it. I get it, but I don’t love it. Potentially a 2nd this year and a 3rd next year. Interesting. I’m sure he figures he can make a move to recoup picks if need be.

True. Who knows. We've seen stranger things happen. If he plays well for us someone could come knocking.

Read it slowly. 2018 2nd and a 2019 3rd are a possibility.

You won't see me banging pots and pans over it but I mean this was a must, and you have to give it to Hextall to go out and get an actual NHL goalie

If it turns into a 2nd it might sting a little looking back on it but we'll just have to wait and see. Doubt the Flyers make the conference finals anyway

- Flyers1218

What is important to remember is if the 2nd and 3rd scenario plays out it means we traded for a very good goalie and at least the 2nd will be at the tail end of the round. I'm ok with that.

Mrazek would have to play lights out to bump Elliott.

Today before trade: I don't get why we don't give them a third for mrazek it's such a good deal. Id give up to a 2nd for him

After we trade for mrazek: omg if a miracle happens and he turns into w top goalie who takes us on a playoff run we give up a 2nd it's such an over pay
