John Carlson, the guy the Flyers should've drafted in the first place if Holmgren didn't want Steve freaking Eminger so bad.

AHHHHHHHH

A dcore involving carlson provorov and ghost would be crazy. Sure Carlson will get a massive raise, but having ghost only making 4.5 for quite a while makes it a doable option IMO

Philly is already one of my favorite teams to watch but if they can snag another unreal dman, i would love it

1st + Provanov.

Well, I'm not familiar with Provanov (he must be someone we took in the 6th or 7th round or something) but if the price is just a first and someone I've never heard of then I'm down with it

Are they looking for a puck moving RHD? A top pair RHD? A depth RHD? A physical/PK'ing RHD? What exactly are we talking about?

Their current D heading into next season

Left-side

Provorov
Sanheim
MacDonald
Hagg
Morin (IR until February)

Right side

Gostisbehere
Gudas
MacDonald
Hagg

Probable D pairs

Provorov - Ghost
Sanheim - Gudas
MacDonald - Hagg

Morin (IR)

So it appears they want an upgrade on MacDonald or Hagg on the bottom pair and since both of them are stay-at-home types, the will want someome that can move the puck efficiently.

No doubt Trouba would cost, but not a better player who's younger and has way higher upside.

If you're thinking Provorov, then we're thinking Laine.
i never said Provorov all i said is Trouba will cost the flyers a real good player
