I actually think Jake Allen makes sense for the Flyers. They have no answer at the back up goalie position for this year or next. They can plug an org need now and possibly have Allen for the playoffs this year instead of shopping in the offseason for a similar goalie. However, I would not give up a ton as goalies just dont carry a ton of value in the trade market. Then Kolosov is ready to go for 2026.

Montreal will not make a deal to help Boston mid season and vice versa. Once in a blue moon you'll see extremely minor offseason deals between the 2. It will be a cold day in hell if what you're proposing actually happens.

My sources are saying they’re about to pull off a trade. It’s Jordan Caron for Louie Lablanc. Former 1sts needing a change of scenery.
Uh, puleeez, the Leafs……serious contender to have a long playoff run!!?? In what universe. - Bullot
imagine if they played to their potential every game and not every 4th -5th game, Could be a great team but just cant figure it out. just need better d men and we just might shock some people.
So on the one hand, the Flyers are shopping Laughton, and looking to move Nick Seeler and Sean Walker.
But they are also looking to add Zegras, and outbid all of the other suitors for Jake Allen?
So maybe the rare situation of buying and selling at the same time! I guess with $23M of cap space they have a lot of options. - Cooleus
That’s a lot of cap space. They can get Zegras to unite him with his friend Drysdale. Then they can get Jake Allen. Maybe they can get Pareyko too since he played with Jake. They must be friends. Then they can sign Konecny for $9 Mil/8 yrs. Losing Seeler, Laughton and Walker should be manageable.
