Burakovsky and DSP are bottom 6 players, why would Edmonton give up a 1st for them?
Couterier is a top 12 center in the league on a steal of a contract, no way the Flyers trade him, especially not to a division rival
a: DSP had seven playoff goals last year. Chiasson had one.
b: over the last four seasons, Burakovsky is in the top 186 forwards in G, A, P, P/60, ESG, etc. How many top-six forwards are in a 31 team league?
c: for two 1sts, it might be close? He's doing great with their big guys this year and last year he finished 15th in points among listed centers, but over the last four seasons combined, he's 43rd in points among listed centers. The Flyers have great centers on the way up and need more great young peripheral players. If the team's thinking big rebuild up front, maybe? The Caps, would have to throw in some halfway decent prospects, I'm sure. Maybe Gersich and Walker.
