Dreger: Torts didnt get brought in for a rebuild. Expect Flyers and Fletcher to "Swing for the Fences" with trades.

[UrbanImpact]

A willing and eager Fletcher...uh oh! Sounds like he has marching orders for playoff or bust and will be going all in this summer.
Nobody is safe in Philly.

I think that pretty much guarantees that the #5 pick is in play

Why not? Worked great for the Hawks last year.

 

[oceanchild]

I have one Center in Miller that is available for your future resources.

 

[VancouverJagger]

Good news for the Canucks and the roster of assets they are going to be flogging this summer.......

 

[Extra Texture]

Obligatory:

I cant wait to see what this dream team has in store.

 

[McDuffz88]

Title should be renamed to Flyers decide to destroy the franchise by making a series of horrible decisions in the upcoming months. They might get into the playoffs but are never going to win a cup. They should be rebuilding right now. They're going to straight up set themselves back 10 years with these ambitions they have.

77 million for Johnny Hockey!

 

[Spearmint Rhino]

Torts loves Josh Anderson

 

[UrbanImpact]

If he loves the Risto type, maybe Canucks can offload Myers on them , especially with major health question marks with Ryan Ellis

Marek was specualting on this before with his Gaudreaus connection with Hayes....Says im sure Filly would love it but they would have to move major salary cap space.

JT Miller retained to 2.5 mil will be Philly's number 1 target isnt it?

Watch out for that #5 pick!

Torts loves Josh Anderson

I was coming here to say. Why do I feel like Fletcher is about to overpay for Josh Anderson by a disgusting amount.

Please note I think both these deals are terrible for the flyers but here are my Fletch overpay predictions:

Cam York + 2nd rounder for Josh Anderson

Or even worse

5th overall + JVR for Anderson and Dvorak.

 

[Mikeshane]

Puljujarvi for Frost.

Oh I can see 5th for Anderson straight up, Montreal has no incentive to move him and Philly sound a bit desperate

 

[Fixed to Ruin]

NHL GMs when they "swing for the fences"

 

[Howboutthempanthers]

The Flyers going to Flyer. They don't do rebuilds. It's done wonders for them so far.

 

[Canadian Canuck]

Canucks are going to feast

 

[Sweetpotato]

Puljujarvi for Frost.

Nah. The only players that make sense for Edmonton to acquire from Philly right now, not necessarily for Puljujarvi or available, but just in general are Konecny, Provorov or Hart.

 

[WarriorofTime]

Gaudreau?

 

[deckercky]

Miller @ 50% + Boeser (RFA) + Myers @ 50% for JVR and all the futures. ALL THE FUTURES I SAY!

 

[Weltschmerz]

I feel bad for Torts

 

[WarriorOfGandhi]

the NHL would be an inferior league if it didn't have the Philadelphia Flyers around to make the same mistakes in the same way every year

 

[AHLdepth]

He's going to pull a Benning this past offseason and acquire Miller@50%, Myers, and 15 for 5, a prospect, 2023 1st and whatever cap offsets.

He will then say "hey we are much better on paper now" and he will technically be correct

 

[unicornpig]

This is gonna get ugly

 

[BB88]

Oh man that’s screaming a anchor contract to Kadri
