That's appalling for the Flyers unless the Avs continue their slide and win the lottery. There's zero reason for the Flyers to move Couturier, but at least offer the Sens' 1st as a starting point...

The Flyers are supposed to be at the end of their rebuild. If anyone is paying attention Hextall was fired at Fletcher brought in to accelerate the competing process with that in mind we can rule out trading for futures. That said the OP is ridiculous.

lol make that ottawa’s 1st & Philly fans will still curse you out

Obviously if there was a three way trade using Ottawa’s first, an A-future or two, & a B-Future or two, to get Coots, that would be amazing...but I dunno what piece we could get with that that would help them more than their Selke caliber 70pt Center signed at a bargain...

Flyers would deservedly want Sens 1st. Just not enough value and they’re still in a rebuild, so likely keeping their younger players.

Philadelphia would rightly ask for Ott 1st round pick or Makar and Avs say no. Just no fit.

Yeah this is no good IMO. Have to give to get and Philly won't give up the best player in this deal for a mediocre player and two mystery box items. I guess if the Avs keep sliding all the way to the bottom but that's a risky proposition for a young player as talented as Couturier.

Copycat crime, people presenting proposals to fleece The Flyers of Couturier.

Give it up, and make proposals that have merit.

Asking a lot, we know.....

Couturier is awesome and would be a godly 2c behind mackinnon, but it would be like Ott 1st, Avs 1st, Jost/kerfoot to get them to consider which still might not be enough.. and will be too much for Avs

That is not how the NHL works. Quality players will move for quantity when the trading team has some level of internal motivation (impending free agent looking for a contract the team doesn't want to give, cap/budget crunch, trade request, locker-room shakeup, looming trade clause, etc.) None of that applies to the Flyers in the context of Couturier.

Tyson Jost is a prime #2 centre candidate for the future, you can have him too.
