If he resigns then yes

Winnipeg can't afford the cap of the 3 players coming in and aren't giving up a good, young defenseman for 3 replacement level players.

I'm not sure Risto would be a top 3 RD on the Pens. He definitely wouldn't be the 2nd RD. Letang and Marino have those spots locked down.

After reading that Jets trade, I threw up in my mouth a bit… not a chance
Let’s flip the script…. Samberg for Konecny

Wow, that Giroux trade feels far undervalued at 50% retain. I don't think Giroux is someone Washington should be going after given his assumed price, but if all it takes is Protas and a 3rd then I would absolutely do that. There isn't any room to resign him, but at that asking price I think you have to say yes. If I really wanted to be picky, I'd ask to give up a different prospect than Protas (say Leason and a 2nd, perhaps?)

flyers should be asking for no less than a 2021 or 2022 1st from any team asking for Giroux at the TDL.

Hawks decline. That's not a hockey trade if you are thinking Frost and Mitchell have equal value because they don't.

no offence but that giroux trade is awful giroux will 100% return a 1st, 3rd+ the only way those picks aren't involved is if an A tier prospect is coming to philly and protas isn't A tier and is pretty unproven, he has looked decent so far in the league but 17 games of averageness in the nhl doesn't get you the 2nd best FO man in the league that is also still highly skilled and probably still a top 50 player in the league disincluding goalies.

as for the bruins trade as a bruins fan i know that isn't enough bruins would have to add maybe switch the pick to a 1st.
konecy is only what 24 has a bright future and on a line with hall and arguably the best producing coyle we have seen since 2016-17 he would surely succeed especially as that line is looking for a top goal scorer which konecy is good for potting 20+. konecy also played C a bit when he was younger and so if bruins could attempt to move him back there that helps B's even more as he would be our 1C for the future with studnicka and Harrison looking to be our 2C's for the future and then beecher and one of the other 2 as our 3C, 4C it would set up boston big time for after bergy leaves

Lol Konecny for Samberg so trading a guy who has played 375 games scored 100 goals in the nhl for Samberg 0 games played who by my count is at best right now the Jets 5th LD I'm a Jets fan and season ticket holder the window on Jets winning the cup is closing pretty quick not to mention the revenue that Jets need from a deep playoff run (my season tickets can't go any higher or the building will be empty) if the team gets on a roll before playoffs I'd do that trade in a heart beat. Samberg is a good prospect no doubt but he has yet to play a single game in the NHL as of right now he is a good defensive defenceman in the AHL if he was a stud Dman wouldn't he be in jets lineup now he'll be 23 years old in a month say like Trouba was. Also he has got Morrissey, Dillion, Stanley, Heinola and possibly even Kovacevic and Chisholm ahead of him and yes even at 23 Trouba would of been ahead of all of those guys. Here's the deal I'll I've heard about Samberg since he was drafted soon to be 5 years ago is he is a stud well......I'm still waiting so if he can't crack the lineup I'd like the see the jets win the cup at least once in my lifetime and the way I see it the window only last as long as Hellebuych is on the team and his contract ends in 2024 and if even Samberg turns out to be a Norris trophy winner I trade him to win a cup. Maybe the trade for the Flyer players isn't the right deal or another deal has to be made but this idea that we can't trade someone like Samberg I don't get, then I guess as Jets fans the dreams of a Cup parade at Portage and Main will always be that.

Mitchell is highly viewed in the CHI organisation. He will put on a bit more muscle this season and in the offseason and be full time NHLer next season.

Frost is highly viewed in Phi organization. He will put on a bit more muscle this season and in offseason and be full time NHLer next season.

But on the other hand they do

I was thinking McMicheal but I doubt Wash would give him up and I think Protas has more upside than Leason but Cap fans would know better than me. I agree probably could be ask for 1st or 2nd in deal

No they don't...look at contract status and pro experience...they clearly don't

you are probably right

We don't need more centres, Mitchell is viewed highly in our organisation and the hope is he can become a top 4 D man in the future.

Fair comment

cassidy doesn't like debrusk and started limiting his minutes for no reason. covid also didn't help as his family all lives in edmonton and he wasn't allowed to see them due to border closures been really tough last 2 years for him mentally

Just about all these trades absolutely suck for the Flyers beside the Jets one which sucks for the Jets

I was going to check out some of the trades you've proposed to evaluate some of your in depth reasoning but no published teams................I'll wait.
