Seems like pretty fair prices to me. Maybe even a bit much for DeAngelo with all his baggage.

I think PHI would be better off just hanging on to Sanheim another year. They’ve got some good young players and should improve over the next couple seasons.

Severson is a good UFA target for them. Not so sure about Soucy. He probably gets a little more to play in a top-4 role somewhere else.

Hayes isn’t getting traded without more retention. Probably needs to be about $3M, at least.

Agreed but the more retention means more value that needs to come back in the trade so if the retention goes up to $3M you are probably adding a 2nd to that deal for the Flyers

I love the idea of getting Severson. Regardless of where we are now, and only if he doesn't mind playing on a team that's mostly going to be bad for 2 years. But if we can get him in the fold, overpay a bit, it'll be well worth it. You can count on him every night in all situations. If he were to be paired up with Sanheim, I think he would do exactly what Niskanen did for Provy. He'd be a calming influence on the back end, is very responsible in his own end, and maybe can allow Sanheim to open up his game a bit and be more a part of the rush. If he was going to be paired with York, I think it's the same thing with him as well. And again, he wouldn't break the bank. Even give him a 6th year at this point. He's just as important for when we start contending as he is now to be able to mentor our younger members of the d corps.

Love the idea of Severson, if you haven't noticed already.

LA accepts and screams "no take backs!"
