Why would the flyers do this? Konecny is better than Laine

Jets don’t do it either. It’s a sideways move, the trade doesn’t work for either side.

I agree

I think the WIld would be interested in a goalie, but I'm not sure if it fits their timeline. The base of Dumba for Frost seems like a good fit for both sides though.

Even if the Jets trade happened which wouldn't move the needle much IMO trying to sign Laine, Sanheim, and Hart in one off season with not much cap coming off would be extremely difficult

Konecny
(4 seasons) - (299 GP) - (83 G) - (102 A) - (185 P)

Laine
4 seasons) - (305 GP) - (138 G) - (109 A) - (247 P)

I wouldn’t say he’s “better” nor would I say he’s worse. We would miss TK’s tenacity but if Laine could spark Giroux and vice-versa, then I’d be all for it.

At least I didn’t get completely and utterly bashed. That’s a win for me!
