The other thing you have to consider is that, if Giroux and Voracek are similar quality players, Giroux's contract ends after this season, and he'll get less on his next contract. Voracek has three years left on his. So they get far more cap relief over the next several seasons from trying to move Voracek now and re-signing Giroux than they do from just moving Giroux. And Giroux is their captain.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>flyersarephilly</b></div><div>I'm not saying the offer sheet will work I'm saying paying someone that much to take a still 65 point player is dumb and it would be better to try their luck with an offer sheet adding one more first than give away a decent asset thats overpaid by 1 million dollars. If voracek's contract is terrible I'd love to know what you think of the Johansen and Duchene deals</div></div>

Clearly those 2 are quite worse.

I defintiely see your point but if Ekholm is moved it will likely be close to the value of 2 mid round firsts and while Vora is still productive Phi has a big issue with too much cap space tied up in old guys.
Lets say they choose to move JVR instead, they will still be paying a 1st to SEA to take him anyway,

I think all the way you slice it the value is fair, especially considering how silly of a concept this all is. Again its not like this is a series thread that I am saying is realistic, its silly, I'm just stating its a minimum reasonable
