Just trying something I havent seen with Laughton

Created by: LafayetteAvsFan
Team: 2022-23 Colorado Avalanche
Initial Creation Date: Jan. 12, 2023

Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Thoughts on Laughton as a depth forward with cost control who fills Compher's slot ($500k cheaper) next few years after this one? Roster below when healthy. Should work with cap space given Landy out a while longer. Still no definitive 2C but damn, ERod is playing well -- and look at the depth if the roster fills out like I have it below. Philly in rebuild mode. Kaut is a low-risk, potentially high-reward investment and I can see Torts loving Dermy.

What's in this for the Flyers? I like Laughton's fit here, but he's worth a lot more than a bust prospect and a 8th defenseman.

Laughton is the next Captain of the Flyers. He’s the only one who Torts has given a letter. Don’t see a world where they trade him unless some team overpays.

sorry to say but Kauts value isn't near what it was 2 years back. he isn't returning anything of significant value.

Calling MacDermid an 8th defenseman is optimistic. He’s an abomination of a hockey player.

Sam Girard could destroy me, I’m shutting up if I’m in the same room as any NHLer

Not close....

I think you have to look at Laughton, his production, usage, abilities and at 3mil for 3 yrs, he might get a late in the round 1st from a contender and more.

I would say a good example would be based on the Leafs (sorry Leaf fans, not necessarily them, its just I know their draft picks):

A top 5 prospect in system that PHI wants/needs and some solid picks, for example:
RD Topi Niemala
2024 TOR 2nd
2024 TOR 5th
2025 TOR 3rd

So the offer you've presented falls well short. Although since COL moved both their top RD prospects last yr, maybe something like Laughton and RD Ronnie Attard for COL 1st 2023 and COL 2nd 2025 kind of thing
