Speculation: Ekholm to PHI

[Soundgarden]

He's much closer to Josi than you think and he's 24. I'll take Provy

Ok, but...he'd still play behind him as of now. You don't need to get upset at having a top 5 defenseman just because a team has one of the players that'd be in front of him.

Not upset at all, Provy will look great as a number 1 in the playoffs. I have the utmost respect for josi.

He has a year left after this one, not a rental. And has a fantastic cap hit.

Sorry, another poster was talking about Jake Voracek so I replied to them. Was not about Ekholm.

 

[Dooble08]

Lmao at a "haul" for Voracek.

Good luck with that

Mike Sielski is that you?

Have you not heard? 65 point players are cap dumps if they are over 30 years old.

Ekholm seems like the type of player I was hoping Fletcher would target after Niskanen retired. I think the Flyers should try and make this happen.

Have you not heard, 26 is the new 30 when it involves Forsberg.

Lol. We are still talking Voracek here. I know....has very little to do with Mattias Ekholm and the Preds. It just started with the Flyers not being able to protect Provorov, Myers, Sanheim, and Ekholm (if we made a trade). Another poster said we should just let Voracek go to Seattle for free.

haha aren't you glad they aren't asset managers?

 

[Blaine8797]

Yet he's a number 1 on a playoff team in the League's best division. That's some serious logic

I mean as you can see I’m a flyers fan but josi>provorov josi is probably the best dman in the league

Comment of the year probably

Yeah the GM should be fired if he let a player like Voracek go for free.

 

[OCPenguin]

how would that even work with expansion? Don't Myers, Provorov and Sanheim all need protecting?

Something the masses including Filly fans can't grasp. Add Ekholm, you have to leave him or one of those three you mentioned unprotected and Ekholm would come at a cost.

That did NOT occur to a single one of us!! Wow.
