There are so many things about this that are awful / make 0 sense. Let's go through them one at a time:


1. Dwight King, an overrated grinder at 3 years for 2,4000,000 is just another Dale Weise contract - terrible.


2. In a league that is getting constantly faster, and a team that is going to be built around youth, you want to bring in million-year-old Jarome Iginla who can literally not skate anymore


3. You absolutely will not get Justin Williams for that contract. He is going to command more money and a little more term than that


4. Patrick Marleau is still good, but he is 37 years old. You want to hand out a 5M, 3 year contract? That's just asking for another Vinny situation all over again.


5. You will absolutely not get Ghost for 2 years at 2.5. Someone would offer sheet him on a much much better contract than that


6. You want to draft and immediately start an 18 year old rookie D man when we have Morin/Sanheim/Hagg/Myers all waiting to come up to the big club. This makes less than 0 sense and has a less than 0 % chance of happening.


7. Vegas isn't going to take Read because of his contract unless we entice them somehow.


8. You want to trade Couturier, one of the premier shut-down centres in the league and an elite penalty killer who scores at a greater 5 on 5 pace than most Flyers forwards for a second round pick. This is probably the stupidest part of your entire post. This would be one of the biggest fleecings of all time. Couturier is an unbelievably underrated centre who is on an affordable contract, and would be worth a great haul in any real trade. You want to trade him for a 2nd... a 2nd round pick...


9. Colorado wouldn't trade Landeskog (a player the Flyers don't need) for Schenn (one of the Flyers' most productive young PP goal scorers).




I'm honestly almost impressed, literally every single move you made is absolutely terrible / insanely unrealistic.

dmac: you would be the person I would want to make a podcast with to talk Flyers hockey, and maybe even Philadelphia sports (76ers) if you follow them

jabroni - thanks bud, but I don't really follow the sixers. I'm actually from Manitoba (Canada) so the Flyers are my only Philly team.

Also holy **** I didn't even notice the Kuemper signing - a career 9.10 goalie who has never played more than 31 NHL games in a season for FOUR YEARS AT 3.5 MILLION!!!!! Good lord. This post must set some kind of record for the sheer volume of terrible, terrible moves.

see above ^

.. none of this makes sense and I might stop watching the Flyers if this is the team we ice this roster next year - and that is hard to make me do

This is the most insane thing I have ever witnessed on here and that's saying something given people have made Gretzky player cards and inserted them into their lineups as legit possibilities.

Nice.....?
