Realistic Trade Proposals V aka Trade Deadline Things

[healthyscratch]

We could get more than just Drouin from Tampa if one of our big D prospects is included. Mckenzie said this morning that if they were trying to get Vatanen or the other young D that Tampa would likely add to Drouin to get it done. Hexy doesn't get robbed.

 

[Broad Street Elite]

Remember, in Ron we trust. Whatever happens, happens.

 

[Hurricane28]

I trust Hextall, he has done nothing to make me cast doubt on him. He knows what he is doing. He won't get robbed by Yzerman

 

[Jray42]

I think I'm one of the few who would love Drouin, but I'd be terrified of the return. Stay the course, Hexy.

No thanks to Staal.

 

[2Claude2Giroux]

I think the most important thing for the Flyers to do today would be to unload the Streit and/or Schultz contracts but if they can get Drouin for Sanheim or Morin, I would do that.

 

[Striiker]

I'm going to be really depressed if we lose one of our top prospects... But I trust Hextall so if the deal gets done I'd give it a 99% chance of being good for us.

 

[catbellysqueezer]

If we lose Sanheim/Prov/Kon in a drouin deal my heart wouldn't be able to take it. Even morin would be tough to lose. I don't like this day at all. Too damn attached to these prospect/team.

Yes.

Or if we lose Schenn or Simmonds.

Either way I'll be like:

 

[The Rage Kage]

I trust hextall. But I can't help but be worried we'll lose Provorov, Saneheim, or Konecny to get Drouin...

 

[GKJ]

Eklund sources on Flyers Twitter on the other hand, have abandoned him.

 

[Prongo]

I trust Hextall. I still think it makes sense to make it a bigger deal with Tampa. More than just Drouin coming back from them. I hope at least.

 

[tade]

Eklund saying we are interested in J. Staal. No idea what the cost would be on that but if reasonable I might be interested. He'd be tied with Schenn for 4th on the team in points, and at $6 million per year I don't think it is all that crazy. He's only 27 and has a long way to go on the contract, not sure if that is a good or bad thing. I know he dealt with injuries in Pitt but how has he been recently?

That has to be total BS.

 

[Cyborg LeClair]

I dont see one of the big dmen prospects leaving. Tampa wants a player who will play right now, not in a couple seasons. If we're in on Drouin, expect one of our roster players leaving. Schenn, Laughton, Cousins, or one of the dmen minus Ghost.

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

Yes. They are two different players that bring different things to the table.

Of course they do, but if you're looking at guys who are certainly overpaid in today's NHL, Jordan Staal is on the short list.

Spending $2.35 on a guy like Raffl is a pretty fair value, arguably overpaying by $350K.

Spending $6M on Staal is overpaying by $1-$2M, especially when the Flyers already have Couturier, who plays a very similar role.

 

[OrangeAndBlackMetal]

Don't **** with me eklund

 

[Tripod]

If we lose Sanheim/Prov/Kon in a drouin deal my heart wouldn't be able to take it. Even morin would be tough to lose. I don't like this day at all. Too damn attached to these prospect/team.

That's why it's easy to say draft the BPA and then trade for needs. But reality is, you get emotionally attached to guys once you draft them.

I am going to guess our 1st + Medvedev for Drouin +3rd.

 

[Broad Street Elite]

Maybe something like Streit, Laughton and a 2nd for Drouin and Condra.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Yeah the price is probably not something I'd be agreeable to. If Schenn for Staal is the center of the deal (and I assume we'd add more), I'd probably pass. If it is a combination of picks and prospects, that's a different story. In all likelihood I would not trade one of our big prospects for him, which means it likely would not get done. I would include a first though.

well you are taking on a 6 million dollar contract. it would take more than a 1st round pick and something else to get it done.
I am not trading our first and any of the big 4 prospects.
Schenn and other things have to be going the other way. It is highly unlikely to happen anyway. Trading for Staal goes against everything Hextall is doing.

 

[OrangeAndBlackMetal]

i would do Laughton, Hagg and a 3rd for Drouin

Firsts won't get thrown around so easily now that anyone who missed the playoffs can move into the top 3.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

I dont see one of the big dmen prospects leaving. Tampa wants a player who will play right now, not in a couple seasons. If we're in on Drouin, expect one of our roster players leaving. Schenn, Laughton, Cousins, one of the dmen minus Ghost.

That's a good point. I hope. I trust Hexy. I have since his rookie season on the ice and I'm not going to stop now. But my backside is clenched. Don't want to lose any of these prospects.

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

i would do Laughton, Hagg and a 3rd for Drouin

I'd kill for that. Drouin in the top 6 here would be absolutely amazing.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Kris Russell could play tonight against the Flyers, be traded or just remain idle (injury):

Brian Burke tells @Sportsnet there is enough interest in Russell that he will be dealt today.

[kammy]

I would agree with that, but interesting to hear our goaltending may be in play today.

any interest in trading for McGinn?

 

[SnS]

I don't want to lose San/Prov/Neck.


Morin, I'm fine with dealing.

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

I'd hate to lose Morin, but it is Drouin...
