The Flyers need a goalie.
The Flyers need patience, that's all.
The Flyers need a goalie.
The answer is... keep the picks. Draft 2 players.

I don't see a need for a top 6 forward. Maybe a 3rd line center if Giroux stays on the wing. Shutdown D to pair with Provorov and a 3rd pairing or depth right D.
Complete this trade: Sutter and Tanev for MacDonald and???
Yes please, where do I sign??
For Hamilton your probably looking at Patrick and Konecny straight up.
Where's O'Reilly going to play when we have Couturier and Patrick? Where's Hamilton going to play when we have Provorov and Ghost? Obviously one of them could move down, but there's cap implications as well.
The Flyers need a goalie.
Not sure if Flyers have the Cap
But this nhl is different. Years ago teams go with 2 scoring lines and a checking line. 4th line was on the tough guys. This nhl you try to have 3 scoring lines. Pits and Kings won a cup with Kessel and Williams on the 3rd line.
Sounds like you're all set, then.Where's O'Reilly going to play when we have Couturier and Patrick? Where's Hamilton going to play when we have Provorov and Ghost? Obviously one of them could move down, but there's cap implications as well.
We cant afford him.Philly will be the team that gets Karlsson. The fit is perfect.
Sounds like you're all set, then.
Should be easy to get this summer, outside of the 3d (CDH?)Other than bottom 3 D, a 3C (priced accordingly) some 4th liners and a goalie...yes sir!
Ok....Not making a trade...but let's put some things on the table
Canucks
Tanev RHD
Baertschi LW
Goldobin LW/RW
Eriksson LW/RW
2020 3rd
Flyers
2018 14 OA (lottery Protected) falls or St. Louis's 19th OA if the 14th wins a Lottery spot
2018 2nd (45 OA)
2019 2nd
MacDonald RHD
Lehtera C
Let's make this clear.......this is not a trade proposal.........these are the parts to make a fair trade proposal that the Canucks may be open to.......now we can be silly or we can try to make that "fair" trade.
With no Tariffs........Joke!
Suggestions?????
Koneckny scored most of his goals with girouxKessel scored 26 and 23 goals in his 2 cup seasons. Williams scored 22 and 19.
Konecny scored 24 this year. Simmonds scored 24 this year. They're BOTH on Phillys 3rd line.
I still doubt its our cup year.
Tanev’s age and history isn’t the best fit for the Flyers and they wouldn’t have much interest in the other pieces. If they did move one of their first round picks, it would likely be for a player who will grow with this young core.
I accept the injury argument with Tanev, but Giroux (30) Voracek (28) Simmonds(29) are all Tanev's age (28)
So as much as you want a top pair defenseman.........I am not sure who you are going to get, in that position, that won't cost you a lot more.
Baertschi is 25, and plays with Horvat..........admittedly he is not a 1st line LW, and more of a 2/3, but he has good offense and is defensively responsible..........the reason he is being suggested is, we are a long way from where Phili is, even if it doesn't look it. We are still building our core, Baertschi is more of a complimentary player.
Possible trade
Vancouver
Tanev
Baertschi
2020 3rd (Van)
for
Flyers
MacDonald
2018 1st (STL 19th OA)
2018 2nd (FLYERS)
2019 2nd (FLYERS)*
*Conditional on Tanev playing 68 games average the 2 years.....Flyers 2017 Dman average games or StL getting through into the second round and the pick moving up (aka 25 OA or higher)
That is a pretty darn good deal, and Phili gets it cheap. Phili saves cap, gets younger on D, and gets the best player
The value isn’t bad, but the core I was referring to was Patrick, Konecny, Provorov, Ghost, etc. The player I’d want to add would be in the 24-27 range with several years of term left.
