It proves phillies gm is a fool

When did Bobby Clarke become Philly's GM again?

Seravalli doesn't even have Kerfoot on his trade targets blog thing.

I want a 1st for him now.
- Leafs43

Kerfoot is going nowhere... Dubas used two assets to protect him..

I expect no changes from this team other than 1G and 1LW

Time to announce the Hyman for Kassian and Ethan Bear a 6th rnd pick in this draft trade
- PatC80

if charts dont work

he is -163 in 542 career games, some folks still like the ol plus minus

is -163 good?
- senstroll

+/-

But fair enough, Chuck sure gave up a lot of assets to make room for Risto who is now, admittedly, a very expensive flyer Flyer.

Adams took Fletcher to the woodshed.

If that was the demand for Risto, I can only imagine what he expects in return for Eichel

really wish he went to Edmonton.

Perhaps he kept him to trade him for more later?

Who knows. I expect at least some roster moves.

Risto Risto must be a great golfer. Closet full of green jackets right there!

The great Philly Kessel at -124

Unless he feels he can gain more assets with Kerfoot post-expansion, I guess? Unlikely though that probably is.

I'm just really depressed that Dubas is sitting on his hands right now and trying to sell us that this club is ready to win as is (with some minor deck chair re-arranging).

It's a spectacular disaster happening in slow motion.

if there ever was a time to trade Rielly, it's now
- PatC80

So if Rielly is expensive isn’t an upgrade even more expensive?

I don't think this is a particularly good draft. I wouldn't be trading for picks in this year's draft - unless you have a prospect who doesn't want to sign, or you can't fit in your depth pool sufficiently and you want to shuffle some of these guys along for a 4th-7rd pick just to give you some late round pot shots in the draft . . .

I still think with Kerfoot the idea is that his value is more than a 7th and Hallander - who, if things work out well, may one day turn out to be a 3rd line centre who still probably doesn't have the upside that Kerfoot does. Again that's a crapshoot, so who knows. But the bottom line is that if you were running the Leafs you wouldn't trade a guy just to get rid of him if you didn't have a replacement or a plan for replacement in mind.

Free Agency will likely be the deciding factor on where Kerfoot lands. The assets were spent because the 3C role was worth more than we spent to insure it. Now if we can improve upon that position through FA or through a trade, then I think it happens. We don't have a lot of centre depth, so I doubt that at camp Brooks or someone of that ilk comes in and he's so good that we're inclined to trade Kerfoot then - but really that's the only time that I'd move him. Otherwise I'd imagine that we insured the position and he stays.

So if Rielly is expensive isn’t an upgrade even more expensive?

Trade reilly sign FA.
We know rielly could cost 6.5- 8m next year.
Move him out

Meh, I wouldn’t call a 7th an asset

We picked 3 last year and I couldn’t tell you any of their names or positions without good old google.

Except I just noticed Engvall was taken in the 7th in 2014.


(frank) YOU DUBAS!!! 🤬

Move out Kerfoot and Rielly, bring in assets, and sign Hamilton.

we know how bad Phil is on the def side..he did that in 1100 career games.
risto managed to outdo him in half tha games

Dahlin is -56 in 2.5 seasons

Trade reilly sign FA.

There's an argument that could be made that if they trade Rielly for futures and cap space and sign Hamilton, they make out better.

There's another argument that could be made if they go for cap space and a cheap replacement that can actually defend... They make out better.

Sign the free agent first. Then trade Reilly.

So your saying to bring back Hainsey eh?

Sign the free agent first. Then trade Reilly.
- shack67

Trade Rielly and then find out Hamilton signed some where else. 🤣

Is Jake Bean any good?

Seravalli says he can be had for a 2nd rounder.
