I Like the Brock Nelson Signing. Especially if Duchene goes to the Panthers or Team X. I Personally don't think we can get a 2nd for Hagg. But If we can hell yeah pull that trigger.

Whats team x

Solve for X:

31 = X + 1

Yeah basically saying literally any other team

ooo

Unfortunately cap space becomes an issue here, Konecny and Sanheim will probably get more than your deals, not much more, but more nonetheless. Also, next year you'll have 6.3 mil in cap space plus whatever the cap goes up to, to then sign Patrick, Lindblom, and Myers.

Yeah I agree. Realized while doing this that while they have a ton of space, it's definitely not unlimited cap space. I originally wanted to see what signing Karlsson and Hayes would look like, but Hayes turned out to be too expensive to I thought Nelson was a good backup plan for what Fletcher is looking for.

This was kind of more just a short-term thought experiment to see what, in my opinion, an ideal Flyers team would look like next year, but you're right; the long-term cap implications make it a bit unrealistic.

In this scenario 31 = x + 2 though because the Panthers were already mentioned and we couldn't trade him to ourselves...

I'll see myself out.

Duchene was the one mentioned and you could re-sign him so it’s just the Panthers that are excluded.

I agree on Nelson. Doesn't seem like his name gets brought up anywhere near as much as it should. Very much not a fan of the Flyers signing Duchene. He's a good player but he's going to be paid like he's an elite player and is therefore going to be overpaid.

I think Hagg will fetch more than people expect. 24 year old defenseman with two full season of NHL experience who, while not amazing, is decently reliable and will still be an RFA at the end of his current deal. Not an exciting player, but definitely the type of guy that a lot of teams could use.
