The addition of the second 2nd rounder and RHD prospect tips the trade into the Flyers favor for sure.
- StepfordSam

Definitely, was very much on board with just a first and second. Another second and a big, handsome, RH Swede? Count this in the Flyers win column.

And LA's 2nd this year would be #54.
- Tomahawk


The posts are coming fast and furious right now... could be a very productive draft, and with the Hart rumors, there could be even more coming.

And I fully expected another top 10 pick next year, even with Couturier and Atkinson returning... with Cal Petersen in net, could easily become a top 5 (or better).

3 picks as RHD prospect and 2 caps make it lot more palatable than the initial deal.

Walker likely gets you a pick at the deadline.

Maybe Walker never plays a game here?

Seriously huge if the news is true.

Starting today they had 1 pick in the first two rounds, trading 1 player and now they have 4 picks in 2 rounds. Magical. AND a D prospect for depth.

As Tomahawk said, tank commanders Petersen and Walker are here. Also have Florida's first rounder next year (thanks Chuck!)

that article doe snot in any way say he requested a trade.

take a walk back to hf boards. wow he speculates he is frustrated. hell even a turd like you can speculate that and possibly be correct.

Again show me where he has asked for a trade in any article. should be easy for you curuf.

tell us how good sanheim is as need some entertainment.

- hello it's me 2050


You are taking Saint Ivan's trade even harder than I expected. He's wanted out for a while, everyone knew this except you apparently, and now he's off to wonderful Ohio. Good riddance.

I don't know why you think calling me by half of my HFB name is going to worry me. Cause it doesn't. Just shows I'm living rent free in that tiny brain of yours.

So the 2nd is the Jackets'? If so that makes the deal even better.

- Tomahawk



This is a home run deal picks 22 and 34 if so

I'm really not that excited about trading Hart like so many others, but if it's a "gotta take it" trade then I am fine with it. A 2nd or below pick then just hold on to Hart.

Now next up...Hayes and Deangelo.

I'm hearing Carson Briere is headed to CBJ in the deal as well, exiled by his father

taking it very badly. Yeah I am so upset i cant concentrate. you are 100% incorrect as he has not wanted out for a while.

So upset I have been for a very very long time advocating moving him. What else you have curuf?

Hopefully Ivan carries his pride in ohio and visits the white castle for some burgers.

Is it just Walker and Petersen for provorov? I knew his time was up the instant he didn’t come out for warmups. Called it.

Also, I hope they don’t just dump hart for a vet like this.

There's a bunch of conflicting reports out there on the return in this trade. For example The Score just posted a few minutes ago and no mention of Grans, but a 1st and 2nd from Columbus.

Danny could seriously slip in a Carson B to the front office hiring right now -- none of us have reached post-nut clarity yet.

I think they probably are hoping he’s no good so they can suck further.

Flyers going to have to clear salary, no? Isn't this deal a net addition to the Flyers salary cap burden?

Right but the score post is per Jeff marek who then tweets hearing additional pick as well. The dust has certainly not settled but I tend to believe Marek
