Flyers decline that. That’s only 1 good pick and 1 good prospect. Briere wants more. If that was the price for TK someone definitely would have paid it already

Olofsson scores goals & would be very flippable at the deadline, probably a 2nd

And Rousek is a better prospect than u think
He has a legit chance to make the Sabres roster this year

But regardless,
we have whatever pieces are necessary to pull off a deal like that

Not that I have an issue with any of these moves
BUT
without making a move in goal as well,
I feel like it’s still a bit of a waste

I think the deal for a goalie happens at TDL if Adams feels like he needs to. Or 20-25 games In if goalies aren’t performing. But he wants to give the 3 every chance to battle it out internally

I hear ya
But trades are hard to pull off,
especially in-season

You definitely have the pieces to pull it off but these are not those pieces based on the flyers insiders reporting that Danny wants multiple 1sts and good prospects for TK

KA is patient. Look how long he waited to Trade Jack. He wasn’t getting what he wanted and waited. Happened in season. I really think he wants Helle and waiting. If Helle not in Jets plans which looks like he isn’t they are not going to lose him for nothing. Be patient. I trust KA

Ok. I don’t really care though
Your GM says he wants 1 thing,
another GM offer less,
and you’ll meet somewhere in the middle

If u wanna argue about where that “middle” is, based solely on what your GM is saying, then find someone else- bc AGAIN,

Hey, I’m as patient as it gets
I’m not one of the lunatics on here screaming how we gotta dump Olofsson, or Mitts (although that’s finally quieted down), etc
Hell, we had a segment of our fan base that wanted to talk about trading Dahlin

Homie don’t play dat

I’m more than ok with how Adams has been doing things
All I’m saying, is the the moves above don’t make much sense unless a goalie move is made as well

Could that all happen?
Of course
But it’s also possible he sticks with his “slow & steady” plan that’s worked really well so far

If Adams doesn’t make another major move this offseason,
I’m ok with it

Or hear me out here it might be hard for you to understand. Briere names a price and if it’s not met he doesn’t budge and we keep TK. He’s got 2 years left on his desk and is young enough to go through our rebuild we don’t need to trade him at all if the price isn’t met.

I'd be fine with this trade for TK. They might be able to get more though, but the two prospects coming back are favourable and you can't go wrong with a 1st.
