Quoting: Flyers2000
Idk if you're talking about in general or this specific set of moves I made, but this Philly team is better with the Ellis and Ullmark trades alone, let alone when you add Eichel. I'm also a fan of Allison,, Laczynski, Frost and York, I don't think they become elite, but should be solid
I see it as
Ellis > Myers
Eichel > Konecny
Ullmark > Elliott
Voracek > Allison
Frost > Patrick
Laczynski = Raffl
York > Ghost
Oleksiak > Gustafsson
True, but add in the prospects and picks for those upgrades. As for Oleksiak and a top 4 RD I would just look for that in UFA or another trade. With only sanheim and hart and partick to re-sign, we have enough money. Dealing ghost for picks, would allow a Savard or top RD UFA or signing Ullmark as a UFA.
Collectively you've dealt 5 starters, 5 good prospect and picks, let UFAs walk and acquired just 4 guys. Thats a ton of stuff to give up. Again I dont think you have to give up so much for a 1RD or a 1C, I think the team is better with TK, Patrick and Myers than it is with Eichel.
