Neither PHI or ARI accept those deals.
Not sure a 4th does it to move Joseph right now, even without OTT getting a pick back.
ARI is not giving up picks to acquire a D man like Branny. That's not where they're at in their build.

This team screams 6 in the atlantic

Flyers easily decline

I think there better than Detroit and Montreal. I think they will duke it out with Boston and Buffalo for the third spot. Even Detroit should be in that mix. It just depends who is healthy enough. I think Florida will either be amazing or awful out of the gate. Stanley Cup hangover.

Boston still have 1 year before they suck. They are making the playoffs. Buffalo is better than this team. They will finish 6. Detroit 7 and Montreal 8

Damn, don't sign Khaira and waive Kelly (or send him down)

Don't trade Brannstrom this way, it would be such a steal for the team acquiring him, yet another dark mark on Dorion's resume

If Kleven is 100% ready, you could trade Brannstrom for a similar 23 y/o 2-way rising forward

We already traded Stone to acquire him, it would be a pretty bad ROI to trade him like that when he is rising again

I do think with Dj also not liking bran he’s on his way out. Also I forgot about smej that’s why I signed kharia. Also I’m excited for a new manger just how dorion has done this summer hasn’t been good

They are easily better then detriot with that chariot holl pairing

This is what I’m saying, 6. Detroit 7 and Montreal 8

Depends on what happens with Bergeron and Krecji, if those guys leave then they will have a tough time. Plus you are not accounting for Florida in that sense. They are the ultimate wildcard.

Dj and Dorion are the ones who will be out.

I don't mind trading Brannstrom, he will flourish on a team that will have a better opportunity but I also don't want to give him away

Tired of bad asset management which is really the first thing I will remember from Dorion's tenure

Dorion has been really bad at his job since the 2020-21 offseason. Even last year people were celebrating but we trade Gustavsson for Talbot (ouch) and we also decided to trade Nick Paul and Connor Brown for Joseph and air. Those 2 guys added now would make our team a contender (with different coaching though)

All this to make place for DeBrincat, which never made sense
