I like the top 6, but scared having 2 young guys with JvR

Can always swap the bottom six around.

I still feel there’s one more move to be made. I don’t know what, just a feeling.
- Deasr1

Backup goalie maybe. I see the rest of the roster being pretty set now.

I look at the forward group and I see a lot of mix & match options, that's good right?

I also feel like Atkinson would definitely start season with Giroux and Coots without question.

Chuck Fletcher jut did it again! Not only did he draft a player (Tuomaala) who both Button and McKenzie had in their top 30, but then they just got rid of Jake straight up for a player who scored 41 goals just two years ago, and CF gained over $2M in cap space to boot!!

CF is hitting a HOME RUN this offseason. What a makeover he is doing. Now he has plenty of space to fill out the remaining roster spots. I can't wait for next season to get started!!

Give it up for Chuck Fletcher!!

Fletcher actually made a good hockey trade.
- PLindbergh31

i hate to say it but i really like that move at first blush from Chuck's perspective. What is atkinson's contract looking like?

Because of the timing of the trade I was very worried we were giving up the 2nd. Great trade.
- hereticpride


I’m actually shocked that we didn’t have to retain or give up a pick.

Very good trade. Hope Atkinson is a shoot first guy. Can’t remember but remember that he’s quite good.

Very happy with this deal.

I can see Fletcher getting Dubnyk as the backup. I would like to see what Anderson or Raanta want, because either of them would be a great 2nd goalie if the price is right. For a forward I like Blake Coleman or maybe Granlund (who Fletcher also knows well_ if his price drops.

What does everyone think Halak would command? I see him as a perfect fit.

I like who the Flyers picked, and they didn't have to trade up to get him. Button had Toumaala ranked 19th while Raty 23rd, so I think Fletcher once again did a great job!

By removing Bobby and inserting Atkinson they just became better team. Amazes the number of people who want to keep Bobby. Truly baffling.

How thy gonna make up Jakes points.......

Halak has to be 56 years old, right?
