So we are going to give up our 2 best D prospects...fantastic! This is a great Holmgren trade!

I'd put that deal on par with the Sixers trading Fultz, Saric, and 3 1sts for a guy, Kawhi Leonard, who could balk at signing an extension with the team and they lose him for nothing. It's a gamble that Hexy can't afford to take.

As a Pens fan, I hate it, but Philly makes a ton of sense as a potential landing spot for Karlsson. People freaking out about Sanheim and Myers like a D core of Provorov, Karlsson, and Gostisbehere is a big problem...

Myers is being groomed to be a top pairing shut down guy...Karlsson isn't that. Sanheim has very high upside and is perfect on our 2nd pairing. Ghost is a purely offensive D man that can put up numbers close to Karlsson. We all know what Provy is. Karlsson is just too expensive for what he would bring to this team, which IMO is slightly more offense, maybe?

That's fair, but at the same time, Karlsson is the best offensive defenseman of this generation, and probably the 2nd or 3rd best ever behind Orr and maybe Coffey. Sanheim and Myers have upside, but nothing proven yet. And Karlsson isn't bad defensively either. You could easily roll a Provorov-Karlsson pairing, followed by a Ghost-whoever defensive.

Maybe you try to sell Hagg instead of Myers and have him anchor Ghost?

Just a thought that the Flyers are in a bit of a strange spot with the young guys like Provorov/Ghost/Patrick/Konecny, while also having the aging part of the core with Giroux/Voracek/Simmonds/JVR, and that their best chance to win is the next 2-3 years. Karlsson massively helps that goal.

Hextall is not going to rush what he is building. You stated exactly why we do not need Karlsson though, because we have Ghost. Plus Provy and Sanheim can both good offensively. If the Flyers are going to trade for a D man it is going to be a steady defender and one where we don't give up 5 young assets.

I get where you're coming from, but saying you don't need Karlsson because you have Ghost is like saying you don't need Crosby because you have Couturier. Not rushing it is fine when you don't have $27.5M tied up in top 6 forwards who are going to be 29 or older by the start of the season. 3 years from now, the odds say they're not key contributors. There isn't a whole lot coming behind them in terms of forward prospects - Frost looks good, but not much else is there. The chance to win is when the windows of Provorov/Ghost coincide with Giroux/Voracek/JVR. If you aren't going to go for it now, Giroux and Voracek should be traded to someone who will IMO.

Karlsson makes absolutely no sense with Ghost still on the team.
