Wow if Minny is going to give away Nino away for a Rask, hopefully Fletcher can yank Coyle for a Laughton

Why would Minny trade Nino for Rask? They shaved a little off the cap, but got a much lesser player IMO.

I only used Laughton as the first name that came into the tier that would be relative to the above trade. Personally I would think they would like to add more depth on D then anything.

Someone please call 1-800-GetBodied. This man Glak needs to be scraped up off the floor.

Here's the thing. If you have to repeatedly state that you "owned" somebody, you probably haven't. I don't have any stats to back that up unfortunately.

I wouldn't make that deal. I though Laughton played a strong game last night. I think he's a player the Flyers need to keep.

I am not looking at stats, I am looking at the way they look(ed) in the NHL. I don't see many Phantoms games
- nastyflyergirl


With such a small sample size and no other info, that seems foolhardy to me.

Well the current Minnesota/Carolina was purely based off change of scenery for both, but Minnesota needs cap relief like the Flyers need Hart to be good.

I don't know if I would technically trade Laughton for Coyle, even though I think Coyle has a much higher ceiling. I would think about Gudas, but that really doesn't help the cap for Minny.

First name that popped out of my head, I think the Flyers win that trade, but wouldn't do it either. All depends if they trade Simmonds and other deals before or after.

Laughton has been a bright spot this season. He is top 9 now and versatile with LW, C, Faceoffs and PK.

Kinda wish we snagged Nino. Seems like we could've gotten him for pretty cheap

I'm still in shock about that Nino trade. How the hell was that a 1 for 1

Just trying to help out, you were probably really busy and didn't get the chance to see the question asked.

not big enough sample size....
- ClaudeFather

So you're saying you need something other than stats to fully evaluate a player?

What's the correct sample size for every stat based comparison? I need a lookup chart please.

like Laughton in a 3rd line role, looking forward to him getting quality minutes consistently, he has an underrated shot.
