Team: 2020-21 Philadelphia Flyers

Initial Creation Date: Mar. 6, 2021

Published: Mar. 11, 2021

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

Just a couple moves to solidify the defense, and add a little firepower to the 4th line for a potential playoff run. Ristolainen would definitely be protected going into the expansion draft. Bear in mind, the Flyers are already going to be losing 1 good forward regardless of whether they opt for 7F/3D/1G or 4/4/1. I'd personally hate losing Ghost, but this is a better team.

No thanks from the Sabres

Don’t want Ghost, probably not trading Risto

Detroit passes, Robtsov is looking like a bust, Replace him with a 2021 2nd round pick and we accept.

Thanks for the feedback, all. Didn't mean to imply any of this is perfectly realistic; just showing a direction Philly could go to try to fix the defense.

IMO the Sabres would have to really decide to rebuild again to part with Risto in the first place. If the Sabres don't want Ghost, it sounds like either a three-way, less likely, deal would be needed or two separate deals, with Ghost in either case going to a team that's really looking for an offensive defenseman / powerplay QB right now. This is in part driven by cap considerations on Philly's end, and also to find maximum return for Ghost to get enough fungible assets for any team, not just Buffalo, to part with a quality RD.

For the Wings, I have no idea what sort of prospects they want, but from your feedback, it sounds like a pick would be preferred. Thanks again for your 2 cents.
