Flyers decline. Not enough for G with half retained, plus there would need to be at least one draft pick included. This team is in a full scale rebuild, we don't necessarily need players as much as you think. There is no shot this team is competitive for the next 2/3 years.

That is a laughable offer for Giroux.

Easiest no the Flyers will EVER have to give.

So the Islanders are getting:

-a 5'9" winger who looks like a good player but can't stay healthy;
-a 5'9", 23 y/o defenseman;
-SDA, who will most likely wind up stapled to a Barry Trotz bench;
-Ian Scott, a goalie who has played 239 professional minutes since leaving the WHL in 2019'
-oh, and here's a 3rd round pick.

And all they have to give up is their perennial 20-25 goal scoring 2C? Oh, and carry a dead cap hit of $2M for the next 3 years? Where can they sign up for this sterling offer???

Considering the rumours, thats a pretty poor offer for Giroux.

I think you're massively over rating some of the Leafs on there.

Joey Anderson is not an NHL forward, hes half way through his 4th pro season and has pretty much looked poor throughout. If he was a NHL player, he'd be there.
Rubins and Abruezze are both nice mid level prospects, but every team has a dozen midlevel prospect. Is Abruezze better than Brink, O'Brien, Cates, Foerster, Desnoyes, probably not, but then theres 5 better forward prospects in TMLF pipeline than him too. Most publications had him as the Leafs 12-17th best prospect. Same with Rubins, is he better than Ginning, York, Zamula, Attard in Philly probably not.

And a healthy Philly doesn;t need Kerfoot: (Koneckny, Farabee, Lindblom are all younger) so I can;t see Kerfoot being a big piece in the trade. Its four pretty "meh" pieces, none of which Philly probably desire and not even close to what the rumours say they want or've been offered.

Just dont think any of those pieces have the value, and its not what you want to offer, its about what they'll accept or what they need/want.

One of the worst Isles trades I’ve ever seen on this site.

Yeah, I somehow also missed the part where the Islanders get to send a 2nd rounder to Toronto *after* retaining $2M for the next 3 years.

yeah if you want brock nelson with $2m retained for the next three seasons, it’s going to have to be a lot better of a package than that. a LOT better
