Offseason v3 w Descrip

Équipe: 2023-24 Flyers de Philadelphie

Date de création initiale: 2 juin 2023

Publié: 2 juin 2023

Mode - plafond salarial: Basique

Trade #1
To COL - Kevin Hayes (50% retained)
To PHI - Sean Behrens

A little ambitious and he may still be untouchable, but I think if these is an unreasonable ask, 27th overall and Alex Beaucage would yield a similar value in return for me. COL gets a player who can play throughout the lineup and be its 2nd line center for a reasonable salary under 4M for the next 3 years.

Trade #2
To DET: Travis Konecny
To PHI: Filip Zadina, 17th overall, 43rd overall

Flyers get to add another 1st rounder in a deep draft and an early 2nd rounder (the worst of DET's 3). Zadina hopefully can get a jumpstart in the change of scenery and get close to his junior days of pocketing goals -- similar to Tippett this past year. DET gets a guy who can help them as they look to get back into the playoffs.

Trade #3
To SEA: Ivan Provorov
To PHI: Chris Driedger, 20th overall, 57th overall

Hakstol gets to reunite with Provorov and he doesn't have the pressure of being the #1 defensemen on the team. He gets to play on a team with a defensive structure that fits him better and PHI gets draft capital in return. Still only 26 and has 2 years remaining, he can become an important part of a growing SEA team that spent its last two high draft picks on centers. No retention in this deal, but the difference in the buried cap hit of Driedger being moved is more favorable in the short run for SEA

Trade #4
To STL: Scott Laughton, 95th overall
To PHI: Nikita Alexandrov, 29th overall

Speculation has been that STL would use one or both of its additional 1st round picks to trade for players to help get them back into contention. The difference between 29 and 95 is worth about a middle/late 2nd round pick. My idea is that Laughton would fetch a 1st round pick in a trade to any contender and Alexandrov bridges the gap.

Trade #5
To ARI - Ryan Ellis
To PHI - John Farinacci

Arizona will need contracts to get to the cap floor and a perfect candidate is LTIR-eligible Ryan Ellis. Flyers get a solid bottom-six prospect who has already said he will test FA. Maybe the early negotiation rights might help sign him. If not, no harm done.
