Philly Open For Business

Created by: professor_MattL
Team: 2023-24 Philadelphia Flyers
Initial Creation Date: Jun. 8, 2023
Published: Jun. 8, 2023
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
After the trade with LA and Columbus earlier this week it would seem Briere is open for business. I don't believe Hart should be traded but there are some pieces on the team I think Philly should be selling rather high on.

Value wise, 9OA+17OA can get 5OA and probably 31OA too. Unless Michkov is still, for some reason, available at 7OA AND Montreal already drafted; sure? But those are two big ifs.

If the Hawks do use those two picks in a trade, they'll probably be headed to Vancouver in a deal for #11. That's the type of trade a playoff team makes to strengthen their chances.

Tbh, we could add a 2nd and some fluff and get 4OA probably.

Couturier is not getting traded until he shows he can still play— and then probably still not

Agreed! Getting Michkov is the only way this trade happens.

Y’all really wanna give up all that just to wait 4 years on a single player who may or may not even be worth the wait or the cost ?

Even if he shows up or not he's got that fat NMC.

Detroit needs a high end offensive player which you don't usually find outside the top 3 or top 5 this year. Unless you get lucky but when it comes to the draft the only luck Detroit has is bad. So if they have a chance to grab a player like Michkov they need to take it.

I don't doubt Michkov will not come to the NHL. I think the Wings get a little merit from the Russian 5.

As for if he doesn't pan out; he'd be the biggest bust in history lol

Yeah, I suppose it’s vital we fill that need for the 2028-29 season……

I’m more concerned about him coming here. If I’m not mistaken, Kirill Kaprizov had a similar situation but he wasn’t we drafted until the 5th round so, it really wasn’t a big deal to wait on him. I’m not saying we shouldn’t draft Michkov; but I damn sure wouldn’t trade up for him just to wait on for 4-5 years.

Think that's where we differ.
Unless Michkov is a bust, his floor is a PPG winger.
A realistic expectation is a 100P player. He is quite literally the 2nd best player in the draft.

He's said he's going to attend the draft too. When interviews come, GMs will be able to tell if he intends to come to the NHL.

I don't get the issue of 3 years in the KHL vs 3 years in any other league.

If you want to bet on a 9OA becoming a 100 point player at all be my guest.
The biggest risk is just a B.S. thing due to political relations.

3 years is understandable. From what I gather it will be 4+ years and I just don’t see the value in waiting 4 years for a player that might (however likely or guaranteed it may be) be a great player.

Wouldn’t be better to trade the #9 pick and a little bit more for a guy like William Nylander that can give you essentially what you expect from Michkov FOR the next 4 years instead of waiting 4 years to potentially get that?

I mean not really.
Firstly, Michkov's floor is close to Nylander's ceiling. Secondly, in the next 3-4 years, our goalie situation will be Husso and a young Cossa.
It'll be 3 years until we see whatever RHD prospect we draft this year (if we get one).

Nylander on this team just makes absolutely no sense. He's going to be maybe half the player we acquired when we're actually ready to compete.

Also, he will be developing for 3 years; his contract ends '25-'26.

“Michkov’s floor is close to Nylander’s ceiling”. Yikes. I usually like ur takes but, I think that is an unreasonable thing to say. A “floor” is like a worst case scenario type of result, there is no planet where his floor is a 90 point 40 goal scorer. That is ridiculous.

It also won’t take 3 years before we’re competing. If you’re waiting for Cossa and think we’re not going to (or be able to) address RHD until whoever we draft gets to the NHL before we compete for the postseason; I think that is a poor take.

I think it's very reasonable to expect his floor is at least 80 points a season. I don't think you can consider floor as in bust status because in truth; any prospect can be a bust. But I think that for him, anything below 70 points would be a disappointing season. 80 would be a little more barrable, but I mean this kid is more likely to hit 100 points than 70.


I don't think it's 3 years before we're competing, but I do think it's at bare minimum, three years before contention. Scouts think comparing him to Kucherov is a reasonable comparison.
