One would think Sam Ventura would be dying to get Konecny. He's a smart guy. Konecny doesn't get a raise until 25-26 when cap is likely to balloon, and he'd probably be worth the 6-7 mil he'd be due to get.
Buff doesn't have a goaltending need. But Hart was a top 15 goaltender playing in front of a terrible D last season. Someone will pay a 1st ++ for him if Briere wants to move him.
And I say all that as someone who doesn't like the Flyers at all.
I don’t think Hart is *for sure* a top15 goalie
It wasn’t just LAST season, it’s been THREE YEARS in a row
He might be good on a better team, but he also might just not be a good goalie- it’s completely questionable imo, & that stops him from getting a big return (which goalies rarely get anyways)
True, Konecny doesn’t need a new contract next season, but the year after
And even with the Cap ballooning, there won’t be too many teams that can afford an $8mil player
Not saying he won’t get a good return, he will
Just don’t think it’ll be a “great” return
