This might legitimately be the worst trade the league has seen in 2 decades.

Flyers gave up a 1st, 2 2nd’s, and Hagg to downgrade from Ghost to Risto.

Risto Risto is a Flyer. Ek is the source. #13 oa is wasted. This is dominoes.

Couldn't see how this was worse from an Islanders take. Odd move by Philly for sure....

The open plagiarism he commits is pretty contemptible.

Don’t the Flyers have enough bad defenseman?

This from the GM that bought you the Suter and Parise contracts

Chuck Fletcher, you’ve outdone yourself

Remember what he gave for Martin Hanzal

The Flyers thought they were negotiating for Eichel. After they signed they double-checked and the contract said Risto Risto. Too late.

Well now! Adams deserves credit but won’t get it as there are always the Debbie downers out there. Huge value for Ristolinen. Liked him but he’s been playing out of his skill set for too long here and it was time to go.

It's difficult for me to grasp how the same person who makes the Ellis trade makes this Risto trade. It's like jekyll and Hyde.

Flyers and Sabres Discussin Ristolainen

The Flyers have had interest in Risto for many years....This could get done.

Worst draft in 20/25 years, MANY GMS are so willing to give up their 1st round picks for this draft but not budging on the 2022 1st round picks.

There's a reason why they're so willing to give away 1st round picks in this draft...it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure it out.

If Buffalo fans get excited for that...then perhaps the teams fate should be what it has been, and the fans I dont feel sorry for so much anymore.

You will like Risto. If "we" buffalo ever made the playoffs he woulda been great for that.

Have you watched Risto? He has physical skills, but is a mental midget on the ice. He's expensive for what he offers. The only good thing for Philly is he is only under contract for one more year.

Don’t mind the trade, but a bit on the expensive side for the draft picks.

Hopefully he can bring consistency to the top. Maybe a little less responsibility will help him out.
