Prepare to be disappointed, thenI think 29 other teams could do better.

Honestly it doesn’t seem like it.I think 29 other teams could do better.
Pageau seems to be overlooked in this thread. I don't think he's quite worth #14, but it's not a world of difference. Even if you don't agree with me, just humour me.
Karlsson is worth more than Sanheim and Patrick.
Perhaps, but not to us considering the massive extension we'd have to give Karlsson IF he even signs with us.
I think the deal offered is about where the Karlsson trade will go because it won’t happen until July 1, so the team trading for him get him extended as part of the deal. Karlsson will basically pick his UFA destination this year. He won’t have the ability to shop as well as he could next July2019, but he will get out of Ott on his terms.I'd pass and Ottawa will not get a better offer than that. An unsigned Karlsson will get a lot less than you think.
No thanks. Take Patrick out of this and you might have a conversation.
What if Patrick is replaced with Frost?
I'm stunned there's a single Ottawa fan saying "pass" to that package
As a Flyers fan: pass. Patrick is a no-go.

We know we are. We don't want this to happen but here we are. Excuse us for wanting as much as possible for the best player in our franchise's history.a signed Karlsson yes, an unsigned Karlsson who's a UFA in 1 year? no. that is a massive overpayment.
no team will gut their future for 1 year of Karlsson. man are Sens fans in for a shock when EK gets traded.

The reason EK hasn’t been traded already is predicated on the plan to:
1) try to sign him on July 1 and see if he will do so
2) if he will not sign, allow other teams the ability to speak with him about an extension and do a sign and trade
Once the Sens know he won’t be re-signing they will almost certainly allow other teams to talk extension with him as part of the trading process. It would be senseless to trade him without allowing teams to do so.

i don't fault you guys. it's a ****ty position to be in. happened to us with Lindros. it's not fun.
sign and trade is definitely the way to go, if they can. as i said, no team is gonna give you much for 1 year, but if there's an extension in place, it'll improve the package significantly.
29 teams would do better +Who’s the one team that couldn’t? Must be in bad shape.
It may happen,lots of balls in the air in Ottawa right nowIt's going to happen though. Act as if he is going to be traded and be realistic.
This has been discussed on our board but trading Ghost for Karlsson defeats the purpose of getting Karlsson. We should be building an elite defense. Not subtracting to add another.I would imagine any deal would likely have to have Ghost as the centerpiece going back the other way
In order for us to get the most out of an Erik Karlsson on the Flyers, he would need to be THE man on the PP.
He really isnt.Karlsson is worth more than Sanheim and Patrick.
