Helping the Flyers Rebuild
Given the protection on the Boston pick the Flyers would have to decline. Other's will pay for Konecny. He's the one chip that if they do trade has to be for the maximum return even if they have to retain and take salary back to get it.

If Philly is taking Cal Petersen in the deal, I don't find adding the 2nd round pick be too much. Spence, Hughes, and a 3rd or a 4th would be fine for Sanheim. I made it a 2nd and Philly will take Cal Petersen which seems totally reasonable of an ask actually.

Hornqvist would if it meant he's getting dealt elsewhere as part of a cap trade. Lucic could be moved elsewhere too with the retention done there too. He might like the idea of playing for Philly if he gets to crash with McEwen and Deslauriers. Could be Flyers 4th line next season if he wants to stay.

I just dont see them taking a shot at him a second time, especially given phillys blueline. Doesnt really fit in on their back end.</div></div>
He's be a younger replacement to Braun and for a team starting Nick Seeler sometimes he's still an upgrade. The Flyers aren't the team that waived him. I believe Nashville and Tampa both waived him and the Flyers only reason for declining him then was salary cap constraints. Given that his deal is expiring the Flyers could look to re-sign him at a much lower AAV and explore him as a 3rd pair dman going forward. He could also find him prior success with Travis Sanheim.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>dannibalcorpse</b></div><div>-Didn't the Flyers already give up on Myers once? I get that you take him back for the cap hit, but I think Tampa chips in more than a 5th for Braun at $1M.
-I think JVR getting a 2nd will be tough - I think a team will give up value equal to a 2nd if you retain him down to $1.75M, but Philly's splitting that value with a 3rd team.
-Probably could do a little better for absorbing Horny's cap hit, but not gonna quibble. Get an asset for eating cap, works for me.
-I get why the Avs might pass on this for cap reasons, but it's also a terrible deal for the Flyers. Hayes is still a very productive player at 30, and you're giving him up for a pending UFA in Compher, a post-hype Martin Kaut, and a B-tier prospect in Ambrosio - and on top of that, you're eating $3.6M for the next 4 seasons? Bad value for the Flyers on a useful player. If you want to move on, move him this summer when more teams might be happy taking a 3x$7.1M swing on a guy like Hayes instead of having to pay 7x$7M for whoever this summer's JT Miller or Nazem Kadri is.</div></div>
Myers was in Philly before and from what it seems the only place he had any success. I wouldn't say the Flyers gave up on Myers when he was likely the centerpiece of the trade for Ryan Ellis when it happened. At that point in time Ellis was "healthy".
If JVR keeps playing the way he is he'll get a 2nd round pick. He's exactly the type of player contending teams should be looking to add. He's a power play specialist who gets to the net and gets good deflection goals. At $3.5 million he should be no big deal to acquire for many teams around the deadline.
Hayes is a good player but if the Flyers are hell bent on making him be a first line center then it's not going to work. He's 30. He is what he is. A productive player but not one teams are going to clammer for during the summer to say they saved on term over a player like Kadri or JT Miller. Quite honestly, Hayes hasn't shown he has that "IT" factor for a team to justify paying him $7.1 million. He's a solid $4.5 to $5 million 2nd or 3rd line center that the Avs get for $3.5 in the deal. The Flyers get cap relief better than a buyout and a cleared deck so to speak. The Flyers appear to be several seasons away from contending. They have numerous long-term contracts they need to get out of but are most likely stuck with. Hayes is one they can move on from and they should.
A big key to the Flyers re-build is going to be clearing salary cap space and using their ownerships big pockets to leverage that cap space into other assets. They can do a larger scale version of what Arizona has been doing and they don't have to be scared off by actual dollars or insurance coverage on injured players. They can do that while playing a hard nose Tortorella/Flyers hockey on brand maybe even squeezing a playoff trip or 2 in during the rebuild. Ultimately, they need to differentiate between key building pieces and assets that can be moved for other picks. They keep signing all of their draft picks to 8 year deals lately when they're not necessarily someone who should be viewed as a core component. Good players but not stars.

The cap is expected to rise about $1 miilion for next season. At $3.5 million for just 3 seasons Hayes is pretty strong asset. I don't see who they could get comparable to him for that price tag quite honestly. Even Compher may cost more. If the Avalanche felt they couldn't make that work they could trade him again later. They essentially swapped his contract for Compher's with cost certainty and little more offensive firepower lower in the lineup.

Agreed. I'd like to see Hayes with Tippett and Cates line continue as well. I like Laughton and Atkinson together as well but unfortunately they'll probably have to pull JVR along as well. I'd prefer they get someone like Allison to play with them instead but that cap number gets to play instead.

Roster Submission for Salary Cap Purposes
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ARMCHAIRGMOFTHEYEAR</b></div><div>Braun is terrible. Sanheim is solid, TDA does what he does really well and in theory, should help provy reach his potential. Risto isn't great he just hits stuff.Not as bad as made out to be tho. Seeler is god awful.</div></div>
Braun is he what he is. He's a 3rd pair defensive defenseman that should play 15 to 16 mins a game tops. He's solid on the PK. He shouldn't be matched against top lines. I wish Braun was considered the #6 or #7 but they don't seem to be going with the younger York and Attard. Seeler and Connauton might be battling for the #7 rostered defenseman at this stage. I'm guessing that since York was sent to the AHL that the Flyers will look to use Ryan Ellis' LTIR cap space now to fill in the bottom pair and hopefully gain some extra assets if it's someone like Zaitsev. The defensive group above isn't threatening to be the best in the league but it's not the worst either. The problem with the Flyers is that when you pare an at best mediocre offense with a mediocre defense you can quickly find yourself toward the bottom of the league because you are neither scoring enough nor defending well enough to win most nights. The Flyers will need a teamwide commitment to defense to try and win like the Islanders have in recent year but even that bottomed out last season. The Flyers also lack the skilled personnel of the Islanders.

There's just got to be better options out there... a team like MTL has like 6 guys that play center. The logic doesn't even work considering Coots is also going to LTIR... I guess you might as well pay Loui Erickson 7million to reap those LTIR rewards....!</div></div>
Well I figure the Flyers will probably have to entice Eric Staal to play here instead of a cheap deal in Florida. Considering he can still likely score 20+ goals, the 1 year deal is fine. The logic is not the same for Couturier. In his case the Flyers will have him on regular IR when the season starts. This means he will count towards the cap and the Flyers can move him to LTIR afterward getting his full salary cap number to play with if they choose to do so. I only messed with Ellis' cap number because #1 he's expected out all season. #2 the Flyers are already over the cap so they might as well spend his full number to bring in some help. The timing of when a player goes on LTIR matters and that's all I'm trying to show here. The more likely option from the Flyers is that they waive players and present a minimum roster to be cap compliant with Couturier and Ellis both on regular IR. The next day the Flyers then will place Ellis and Couturier on LTIR and receive full cap space credit for both players.

Because the Flyers can. With Ellis on LTIR they can replace his full salary prior to the season starting. If they don't replace his full salary, they only receive a LTIR credit in the amount needed to become cap compliant. It would be best if the Flyers used his full salary to become cap compliant even if it means overpaying Staal.

Kaut looks like a miss. Desnoyers could still be a player. He was just on Canada in the WJC. I'd rather keep the younger player with less proven lack of success. The Flyers don't need to make a move because someone might be more likely to make the roster this season. They have plenty of wings.

Not really. Farabee is only on regular IR above so his cap number is being counted. Ellis would be on LTIR. Once Farabee and Ellis return the Flyers have to demote 2 players to the AHL. They may need to demote 3 to make the cap work but with Brown, MacEwen, Seeler, and Laczynski on the roster above that isn't really a tough task. Laczynski is waiver exempt as well so that makes that easy to do. Losing Seeler, MacEwen, or Brown potentially to waivers is far from a disaster. Could even be welcome.
