Now this is an interesting Risto trade.... Don't know if Philly needs another dman though. Really depends if Patrick makes a step forward

Koneckny is a stud...I dont think this is a good deal for Philly at all. They are stacked on young dmen

I don't think Philly considers this deal.

Asplund had 41 points in 75 games in the AHL, during his rookie season and first year in North America.

I'm not adding him to a Ristolainen trade...plus he's a center, which we don't have a lot of.

And Botterill isn't trading Sheary for a 3rd round pick...he loves Sheary, he's good scoring depth, and he's versatile (LW and RW, which we need).

We don't have a lot of centers? Next year we will have 3 top 10 picks playing center. We can afford to lose Sheary based on the wingers on the team.
