Oh none -- because that isn't his plan. His plan has been the exact opposite. Mrazek was out of desperation.
The time will come, but not now.
Why not now?
Why not when you have a 100 point guy, a 80 point guy, a Selke C, a 60 point guy, a Dman who was 1st in goals, a Dman who was near the top in points.
Identify the core prospects you want to keep, making a list of those that likely never make it on the Flyers due to too many prospects, not enough spots.
Then trade some of that youth or future picks for immediate help. Get a f***ing goalie for 2-3 years. Get a f***ing Dman that the kids can actually lean on.
Just those 2 moves take us from playoff tweeners, to a team that should win in the playoffs. How many rounds? Who knows. Because we all know anything can happen in the short series, match ups matter, injuries, etc...
For 2 years and looking like a 3rd next year, every game we have a disadvantage in net. Wouldn't it be nice if that was even changed to a 50% ratio??
I was all about being patient before this year. But now it's time. Add a few pieces to bridge the gap to the rest of the kids. Make them HAVE to bump off a good player to make the team. Get the current kids not only a playoff taste, but a taste of winning and what it takes.
Hextall did the easy part of the job well. He sold guys off to desperate teams for good/great returns. Now it's time he himself takes the next step. Time to step up and make a few good trades to help the product on the ice win now, not just maybe in the future.
Time to man-up Hextall!
