Doubt it's necessary. Flyers won't be a lottery team by a long shot.

Bruce Garrioch is saying it's down to Tampa, Vegas and Dallas. I hope he goes West. The Bolts would be scary with him.

Flyers explorong Karlsson Optiions. “Full force”

Told by a source that the Flyers may be exploring a trade with Ottawa to land Erik Karlsson. Hextall is tryong to make a major aquisition and was upset he couldnt get in on Tavares. The flyers habe all the right pieces to make thos trade possible and i am told philly is a team erik has expressed an imterest in playomg for.

I hope the trade involves jakub voracek, and first round pick and maybe one of the young defenseman not on the roster. Maybe a Travis sanheim type of player

I dont mind Karlsson but if it is at the expense of Provorov, Konecny, Lindblom or Patrick I will pass.

I'd be willing to part with Ghost, Simmonds, a prospect and a 1st for a signed Karlsson.

Why? Voracek is a beast! Trading Voracek makes Flyers a worse team. Defense is not a position we desperately need to upgrade anymore. We have good pieces on D and need to look at removing guys like AMac and Gudas for them. Flyers dont have anyone that will replace Voracek's 85 points.

The addition of JVR makes Simmonds expendable. Simmonds is a crash the net\PP specialist and JVR also covers that area. It is already projected that JVR takes Simmonds spot on PP. His production will likely drop, ignoring last years injury riddled season

Couple things that make it plausible

1. Flyers have a perfect piece to trade off their roster in ghost. He is signed to an excellent deal for longer term and would be an instant Karlsson replacement on the pp

2. Flyers have room to take on Bobby Ryan. It would be bringing him home. Maybe he finds a spark playing for the team he grew up rooting for.

3. Lehtera would be the cap dump piece. Only one year for Ottawa to take on

4. Will Simmonds be included in the trade? Suppose he could be but flyers would have room to keep him on this years roster

5. Flyers do have a bevy of prospects to offer

6. Flyers have been looking for RH dmen for what seems like forever.

It’s not crazy at all

The main problem is getting him to sign an extension. Huge if.

Ottawa could flip Simmonds and get more assets, to help compensate for the dilution in return that including Ryan involves.

Yea I don't think so. You'll be lucky if you get Sanheim, Rubtsov, Lindblom and a first.

If the get rid of Voracek they don't need 85 points because they won't give the puck away as much without him. If they get rid of Simmons who is going to be the players with a nasty side to his game. They don't have anyone else

Right, if Ek’s report is accurate (I know) and he has an interest in the flyers then that would help. I’m sure whoever trades for him the extension will be announced immediately. The Simmonds point is certainly interesting...that would be a great deadline piece to have but I think Gostisbehere could be the key in a potential Karlsson deal

Giving up Gostisbehere for Karlsson makes no sense at all. Karlsson would make almost triple what Gostisbehere makes after his extension and he's not triple the player Gostisbehere is. In fact Karlsson isn't THAT much better at all. If Gostisbehere has to be part of the deal, then heck no. Even if it's straight up one for one.
