You can argue that Couturiere is the superior player and gets paid 4.3 X 3. Flyers are solid on the wings, Laine is would be be a luxury. Why do folks keep on trading an unsigned player? Do you think the Flyers or any team want to get into the endless negotiations and expensive Laine (name any RFA). Flyers once they sign Pronovov and Konecky can't afford the Laine cap dump.
These RFAs really don't have the leverage signing with another NHL team....virtually everyone is at the cap and they are RFAs.
