I wouldn't trade Patrick and Provy for Eichel, never mind O'Reilly... Geesh.
What the...???

I wouldn’t make sense to. Eichel will be a better producer than Patrick for sure, but Patrick hopefully can become a 60 point center.What the...???
Okay, whatever. I'm leaving this thread. It's pretty bad.
It’s not about the value not being there. It’s about making zero sense from either standpoint.
Provo is the only potential #1 we have and he is currently our number one.
That’s all it is.
I'm not underselling a 2nd line center who would potentially be on our 3rd line making 7.5 million for 4 more years. He isn't the player we need.He’d be playing with very talented wingers and who knows what the ice time would look like in 2-3 years. But I doubt the Flyers would mind if they could slide Patrick behind Couturier and ROR. Sure, it could change in 2-3 years. You’re underselling ROR.
His salary for the next 4 years is an issue.I don't understand the concerns with getting ROR from a lineup perspective. My first thought would be that they want a even top 9 with 3 strong, defensively responsible centers. If ROR can hold his own with some of his previous linemates, I'm sure he can do fine with the wingers the Flyers give him.
If not trying to have a very balanced top 9, I don't see the issue with ROR taking "2C" role and Patrick taking "3C" role for a year or two and then it switching once Patrick develops and ROR hits 30 and might be better suited for a more "3C" role.
I personally think Patrick could be an 80 pt player. Provorov is absolute stud. Already leads the league in goals by D. I think most would take a Norris level Dman in this type of situation.What the...???
7.5 million until he is 31 and could potentially be on our 3rd line. Also a huge issue when all of our young players will be getting new contracts.How so?
nah, not all of us are delusional.sabres fans are asking for provorov for ROR...wow
no Sabres fan did that at all.....sabres fans are asking for provorov for ROR...wow

Not to nitpick, but ROR has 5 years left on his deal.His salary for the next 4 years is an issue.

You are very much underselling ROR if you think he's a 2nd line anything.
Last 4 years the actual cost is $6M per year but $7.5M cap hit.7.5 million until he is 31 and could potentially be on our 3rd line. Also a huge issue when all of our young players will be getting new contracts.

On the Flyers, unless he can play Rw. Would be on our second line.
Doesn't make him a 2nd line player. By that logic, Malkin is a 2C and Jordan Staal is a 1C, because that's where those guys play on their respective teams.
okay guys. Sorry I don’t agree with the idea of trading assets to acquire a talented yet unnecessary addition to our team with a heavy cap & term. Love you guys anyway.
