Spector Trade Rumor

Already did this post. The Hockey News podcast is a joke.

Edit: Not even a rumor, just a stupid mock trade.

In all honesty, I don’t think the Flyers trade Hart for any SKATER at all ( McDavid would be the only exception ).

We need goaltending desperately, and haven’t had any truely promising hope in one in forever.

So unless it’s a Hart for Vasilevsky based deal (he is the best fit for this trade more than any other other top goalies in the league based on age and talent level) then I don’t see a Hart trade happening.

So long story short, I don’t think there is any way Hart is traded, and that’s a bad offer anyway IMO, and that’s putting it lightly.

Yikes. Take out Hart and it's still a no! No team is taking on Seabrooks giant term.

Kane is very good, but Reinhart is a lot younger. Is the difference worth three first round picks?

Here is a table of some potentially relevant statistics:

Name ____________________________________Age______________Points this year
Patrick Kane..................................................30...............................38
Griffin Reinhart...............................................24..............................2
Sam Reinhart...................................................23.............................32

Just to be clear, in the above trade, you included Sam Reinhart. Not Griffin.

So I think, given age and remaining contract term, it comes out better as a one for one, with Moulson included to balance a bit of cap hit this year.

I can't see anyone wanting Seabrook with his contract. Almost a $7mil cap hit till he is 39.
