As a Flyers fan, I'd love for this to happen. However, I don't think this will happen for Philly if Poile wants to sell prior to the expansion, and here's why...
Assuming they get Ekholm, that'll give them Provorov, Sanheim, Myers, Ekholm as your top 4 (NICE). However, expansion draft is coming and that means you're losing one of those, and odds are it'd be one of the young guys.
If NSH would wait til the offseason, after the expansion, I'd be inclined to throw in either a 1st, a good prospect like Frost, plus an NHL-ready player with a low cap hit (i.e. Hagg).
I'm not super up to date with this news though so idek if that is what NSH is looking for.
