So basically the Rags just got whatever they could.

And the rumour (their rumour) was Buchs for Horvat...

Wait until they give him 6 years and 39 million new contract next week. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

LOL, well, that's the ultimate goal, now isn't it?
Sanheim isn't very good, really. Serviceable.....but nothing to write home about. Average at best. Dime a dozen defenseman.
Honestly, the Flyers would probably be better served by bringing in one other guy (for cheap) on D and bringing up some of the kids.

I'd agree with that. You guys have had a decent pipeline of defense prospects for awhile so might as well see if one is going to step up. Let the kids play on the 3rd pair if they shine and bring in a cheap defense first guy to play with Risto. Any guys on your wishlist?

One down, two to go.

Probably had to outbid Holland...

Couldn't risk being the only GM making terribad moves this offseason

Lol flyers.

You know.....this trade has changed the landscape (as I see it, anyway) a bit....

Honestly, If I were the GM of the Flyers, I'd be looking at a 3rd/4th line O guy.
A grit guy who can add some points, but doesn't have the game on his shoulders.

I'd love to see Zack Kassian in a Flyers uniform, as long as he's healthy. That's a match made in heaven, as I see it.

For

Ristolainen

Not a good time for a Flyers fan wow
- jjonah

hey that is what I said haha

All assets that have left the Flyers so far are damaged goods or available at a low cost elseware. It's a bad draft and the Flyers have essentially wasted mid 1st round picks over the past decade.

Benning...hold my beer
OEL trade upcooming

- carsonagenic

Did a bunch of GM's find a pile of crack this morning? At least you guys got Garland, but yeh OEL has been washed out for the last couple of seasons

The entire team was dreadful.

Quit looking at the stats, and look at/watch the player!
- Nh_kong

I have he (frank)ing blows.

Think I read somewhere here that buffalo received 2 seconds. All I've heard was first rounder tonight, a player and a second in 2023

Especially when Nick Leddy was just taken in exchange for the 52nd overall pick. Fresh of a 31 point season with the same term and AAV's.... Yzerman looks really good when comparing him to old Chuck.
- bikeguy99

It is starting to look like GMs smell blood in the water. They know who's desperate. Those that are will overpay to keep their jobs. It will keep going until Execute Comcast management figures it out.

How was Risto more valuable than Ryan Ellis.

I agree with this poster's comments below. Risto is a good defenseman.... totally overworked on a shatty team " He plays every game and gives you full effort. He doesn't get hurt. He is a solid power play quarterback. He has spent his entire saber career playing against the very best players of the opposition and the most minutes on the team. That was a mistake.

He is as physical as a player comes in today's NHL but he is not a top-pairing defenseman and shouldn't play more than 21 minutes in a game. If you can fix his head you have as physically gifted a defenseman as there is. It seems to me though he plays a certain way, and it's not going to change."

When you see Brandon Montour go to Florida and be +8 in 12 games maybe you need to realize what a complete train wreck Buffalo coaching has been before commenting negatively on this trade.

Is adams that good or is fletcher that bad

Nice deal for buffalo
- Revised12

Yes

lol

Montour looked great when Donato took over. Risto still sucked. tell yourself whatever you want, horrible move, you better hope you dont resign him

- poisondhearts37

Exactly. This is not much less than what Chicago gave up for Seth Jones. Just not a good price paid for the talent.

Are you kidding me?

Ghost didn't want to play D.
Hagg simply couldn't play D.

The picks could prove to be expensive, but come on.....the Flyers D just improved significantly over last year.

It's a GREAT time to be a Flyers fan.


Chuck is on fire and I hope he keeps the ball rolling.

Nh_kong is Fletcher? 🤔
