Offering the Flyers a UFA and a 5th for Braun is an insult.

Forum: Armchair-GMFeb. 28, 2022 at 12:38 a.m.

Flyers have zero interest in Nemeth. Why trade for a ****ty third-pairing defenseman with a $2.5 cap hit when they could sign one just as bad for $900k?

Thread: Konecny plus TDL

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mondo</b></div><div>Feel like the Sens could get a third or second for Tierney. Isn't he capable of being a top 6 centre?

Lyub is the Leafs depth rd guy. I wouldn't play Brown over him or Holl to be honest.

For the Konency trade, if I'm the Flyers I would be hesitant to accept that. Konecny is a top line forward and has a second liner salary for another three years after this season. I doubt they're itching to sell him at any point, so you're already looking at an overpayment in order to pry him out of Philadelphia.

You'd have to think a first would be involved in a deal. I'd put the 2023 first with lottery protection up, since the Senators should be in the playoff race by 23-24 at the latest.</div></div>

As a Flyers fan, I value TK and am not eager to move him. However, I can envision a scenario where we bring in a big name (Gaudreau) and might want to convert TK’s cap hit into defense. For that reason, I’m listening to this offer. Not completely sold, but listening.

Thread: Konecny plus TDL

As a Philly fan, I’m intrigued. It sounds in the ballpark. My opinion on specifics may hinge on what we get for Giroux.

Thread: what say you philly

An alternate universe.

Seriously though, why would Philly trade Hart? He’s who you build around. Unless you’re in a position to guarantee lottery picks, I genuinely wouldn’t trade him for three firsts. Hart is worth more than three mid-to-late-round firsts.

The Flyers aren’t going to take on dead cap for next year just to get rid of players they could waive if they had to. Come on.

Thread: How bad is this

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ledge_And_Dairy</b></div><div>I would highly suggest taking a shot at Petry over Barrie. Petry isn't a complete defensive liability, would probably not have Philly on his block list, and Montreal would probably be willing to take back JVR to flip him.</div></div>
Are you suggesting that as a 1 for 1?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ledge_And_Dairy</b></div><div>Did you learn nothing from Ghost, Risto, and Yandle? Why would you want Barrie?</div></div>

My guess is the point is to shift JVR’s cap hit, but taking more than half it back in a No. 6 D kind of defeats the purpose.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>B_seka17</b></div><div>Why would we sign Giroux for 8 years? He's not going to be a player worth that much in 4 years let alone 8. That is also a big overpayment for Chychrun</div></div>
Because we love him and we don’t want him to leave, and 8 years knocks the cap hit down.

It’s like I said to the other guy - overpaying in these proposals just proves that the move is realistic and not a fantasy.

That’s ok. The cap will hit $100 mill by the time it’s over. It will be worth it.

And overpaying just means it’s workable. Better to overpay in a trade proposal here than underpay.
