Could see the Oilers giving up 10th + Devils 3rd next season if the players we want are gone.

Flyers are loaded with prospects at all positions. Let’s assume flyers want to trade picks 14&19 to get into top 10.
1. How high could they trade up using those two picks?
2. What teams might be willing to trade?
3. Is trading up even worth it given the depth of the 2018 draft?
Drew DoughtyIf Philly can't find anyone to move up with...would they be willing to move both pick for an established player that fills their needs more? Looking to get LA more youth and picks.
What would it take to get 14+19 to LA?
The by issue is that trading away both doesn't make sense sine Philly is not in a win now position. They are building for the future....hence the Schenn trade. So anyone they would want would be young and have term on their contract.If Philly can't find anyone to move up with...would they be willing to move both pick for an established player that fills their needs more?

Or DD...lol.
And that's fine. Philly is just in that weird rebuild spot of too many holes to fill right now, too young on D, and no goalie. But are still wanting to be competitive.Other than Kopitar, Doughty, Vilardi and Kempe. I'm more than willing to move any assets.

If Hextall cared about today the most, he never trades Schenn. That was a clear sign it's more about the future and future core. Thus why trading Simmonds continues that theme.
Trading picks, especially 1sts for roster players just goes against what he has already done with Schenn....which goes against his plan. Some just don't like that plan.
I suspect he drafts 2 guys the scouts like and then tries to see if he can trade some of the other picks for help now....or waits until FA in an attempt to add someone for "free".
I completely understand but this is a hockey forum board. Not anything real. I was just trying to see what it would take. You know hypothetically if they were to trade the picks for NHL help since their prospects pool is so deep.

To trade up you need to have specific target in mind so curious who would Philly be targeting ? Also , I don't think any of the teams in the top 10 move their pick until they know what players are available to them on draft day. For example if for whatever reason guys like Wahlstrom and Hughes drop I don't see anyway that the 6-10 range teams move their pick. At that point is it really worth it to move up ?
