Pushing to the Playoffs Finally

We have been "pushing" for the playoffs.

We missed by 1 point last year and probably by 3-6 points this year

We can take Krebs for salary reasons if need be, but Flyers would probably want Kulich, Savoie, or Ostlund included.

They should take an offer like this for TK in a heartbeat. I honestly think replacing Krebs with the guys you listed would make this an overpay by Buffalo. Adding a guy who slots into 3C immediately + plays a style that would work great in Philly, as well as adding a pick that can land one of Eiserman/Catton/Iginla/Buium/Helenius/Yakemchuk, while finally saving yourself the trouble of paying a RW a bit too much money in the early stages of a rebuild when you're already organizationally loaded at RW?

The only unfortunate part of this trade is the fact that I doubt Briere would actually do this, even though it'd be a really smart move for the future of the franchise

Im going to disagree. We have a Krebs in Cates. If we are trading our best player, Id, at least, want a prospect that has 2C potential. They can keep Krebs if they want and provide me with one of those prospects.
