Proposal: PHI/EDM

[thadd]

I know it sounds crazy, but we can't afford to trade Larsson for a d-man. We need forward depth.

Pass. The Oilers have Klefbom and Nurse projecting to be 50+ point dmen on the left side.
I think Bear will get up to 40 by the end of the season too

Bear is literally on pace for like 24 points, figured I should throw that in the

Well Ghost is on pace for 25 points....so we can say we think he gets to 40 on the season too!

Bear's calling card through juniors has been his effectiveness on the PP and the Oilers have kept him off of it so far. He will easily be scoring 40pts once he gets PP time.

He'll get there. He's been given more opportunity lately and if you actually watch him play you can see his confidence increase every game

 

[Funk21]

Larson and puljujarvi for ghost

Cap neutral and the chance ghost gets his confidence back is offset by the upside of poolparty. I don't lnow what philly would do with another rd but im sick of bad value ghost proposals

A team with Klefbom, Nurse needs Ghost? Not to mention they have Broberg waiting in the wings.

your premise makes no sense.

 

[Starat327]

The amount of people who dont understand that Ghost plays his best hockey on the right side is dumbfounding.

 

[Bob Clarke Fan Club]

Not into trading Ghost atm. Nobodies going to pay for his ceiling so why trade him?

 

[NJ DevLolz]

Well...he had his fantastic rookie year and his 65 point season, while on the right side. It's why many didn't like the Braun trade because they wanted Ghost used with Provy again on the top unit....where they have a a 71.43 CF% this year.

Reality is, Ghost has been good/fine this year when not paired with Braun....but that is who he has been stapled to.

And note, his time with Provy, Hagg and Sanheim.....Ghost was playing the right side.

Puljujarvi and Larsson for Ghost and Laughton

As a rookie D with no powerplay time? That’s impressive. Dahlin only had 24 even strength points last year. Ditto Provorov/Heiskanen.

You’re proving the point more than disproving it.

Ceiling ?? He's a 26 year old that had one good season and has been declining since then.
Ceiling.... haha good one

In the running for most disingenuous post of the month.

Gost had one good season?

Yeah, you need to look a little closer in regards to his "bad seasons."

 

[Blaine8797]

Gost had one good season?

Every year ghost was in the league he would’ve led your defence in scoring... minus last year where he had 4 less points than nurse with 4 less games played

Theres more to defense than just points. His one 60+ point season one could overlook all of his other defincientcies(Like Jake Gardiner)
Hes just not a fit and the price is way to high for his "ceiling"

Ghost also hasn’t been on the ice for a goal against in his last 6 games played tho??

There is always that one yuppie running his mouth... I am not worried about Gost. I am worried about our veterans playing better hockey. Worried about PP creativity. We do not have to rely on Gost as heavy as we used to do.. we have Provorov Sanheim Myers Niskanen..

plus 2 excellent kids are in progress...

I think overall since he’s been back he’s been playing good hockey anyway, he’s only had one bad play where the puck bounced over his stick and nothing came of it, I think keeping him would be much greater than trading

Hes also only played 10, 14, 15 and 19 minutes in 4 of those games. I'm sure that would be the excuse as to why he only has 1 point

 

[Limeyjim]

Puljujarvi and Larsson for Ghost and Laughton

I know the Gostisbehere fans are going to hate what I'm about to say here, but I think Scotty Laughton is more valuable to the Flyers. Laughton is going to have a very good season, now that he's finally healthy enough. Laughton understands what the coaching staff expect from him, and he'll shine under AV's rule. As AV would put it, Scott Laughton will have plenty in the bank.
Gostisbehere has been spoiled by the praise of his former coaches, and it seems as though he expects praise from AV without adjusting his game. I like that he has become a probable "healthy scratch" with each game, maybe he'll work harder and within the plans of AV.

So his first season wasn't good?

This is a trade discussion between two top 10 teams. What exactly about it interests you?
