I really hope the Flyers don’t do this. I would love to see Giroux win but I really think that he’s worth more than this. No insult to you, as you are just going off reports

Pretty good return if you ask me. Would prefer Samoskevich over Denisenko but still.

Agreed but I think they should get more than a 3rd

He's a rental though and Florida is extremely unlikely to be able to re-sign Giroux given their cap situation next season.

Yeah, I think my main problem is I really don’t see anything in Tippett

Weird situation this year. Teams are trying to do right by their players. I'm guessing Manson mainly wanted Colorado, so he gets less of a return, Giroux only wants Florida so he won't get much, apparently Giordano only wants Toronto so he won't get much. It's players like Chariot, Jarncrok, lindholm etc who are getting massive returns. Some Teams are going to have to work harder than others.

Manson fetched a great return. I'm not sure the Ducks would have been able to beat it. I'm sure a team would have offered a first but Helleson and a 2nd is better than just a first.

I like Tippett a lot if he's the 2nd piece. I prefer Samoskevich as the primary and then Tippett. Maybe they can get an additional 3rd round pick. I'm not sure they'll get a better return for Giroux as a rental.

Tippett may not be a #10 overall top 6 winger like hoped but I could see him being a productive 3rd line winger in the NHL at the very least.

You're probably right, they are very high on him. I still feel like he could've gotten more (look at the Chariot trade) maybe it's just because I really like Manson.

Chariot got a 2023 First Round Pick. A 4th and a solid prospect who was a 3rd rounder last year. Manson got a 2nd and Drew Helleson who plays Right Defense and appears to have a much higher ceiling than Smilanic. I would argue that the Ducks got a better return than Montreal did. Don't let the optics of a 1st round pick cloud the rest of the details.

I dont, but gms value 1st rounders above all. That's almost always the #1 ask (not saying I agree with it). Anyways the deals are done this is a Philadelphia thread so let's stick to that lmao
