I love the idea of that Expansion Draft trade

This trade is extremely heavily in favor of Nashville

NO WAY PHILLY TRADES ALL THAT for a bad contract Johansen, Ellis and Jarnkrok

how about throwing in Arviddson and changing the pick to a 2nd?

I wouldnt touch Johansen's contract tho

The price for Ellis is rumored to be a 1st and a prospect, so I figured Sanheim + Frost might be sufficient. Johansen doesn't equal Konecny, but to off load Ghosts contract, makes it close. And if you balance out the money with Jarnkrok, a 3rd may not be needed or Nashville might need to throw in a pick. But RHD are expensive, so I think it may be closer than people realize.

I originally had a Arviddson/Ellis for Sanheim/Konecny and a 1st/Frost. I personally don't think RyJo is washed(at 28yrs old) and getting a 1c/2c would be more beneficial than possibly delaying any of our RW prospects. PP would be a lot better with Ellis and Johansen too

yeah that's a fair point, but who knows, a change of scenery could do good for him, albeit the same thinking as the first time he was traded. I think getting guys like Ellis and VA, and even a guy like Jarnkrok, could desperately help beginning the huge change i think this locker room needs.

I 100% agree, and a top pairing of Provy and Ellis would be absolutely game changing for the team, finally a partner who can carry those minutes, and can help Provy get back to where he was. It also helps on the PP as you mentioned. I think the number 1 priority is solidifying that top pair, not only is it a need as mentioned, but if it helps Provy get back to where he was, it's like killing 2 birds with one stone. It can't be understated that that should be Fletcher's number one goal this OS, either by FA or a trade.
