Flames pass, that does nothing for them

It’s one bad contract for another. I think they lose Gaudreau so JVR helps replace some goal scoring on a one year deal

Lol JVR doesn't replace anything that Gaudreau did.

Monahan was injured, his contract is not bad when he is healthy

Flames deal is bad for both teams, Frost is a better 3 C

Flyers decline that kings deal, too much value left on the table

Not a big fan of giving up all that in MIN, hurts our future a lot and gets us older

I think it’s debatable. I question whether Fletcher has given up on frost. Sure he showed a little bit at the end of last year but not enough IMO. Monahan could use a change of scenery but he’s young enough to turn it around.

Flyers are lacking quality organizational depth at center and Turcotte helps with that. Provy seems to have worn out his welcome some.

Fletcher wants high end talent. So going out to get Fiala fits that bill. Getting dumba is insurance for Ellis.

If Fletcher is going after a big name coach ( like torts for instance) he’s going to try to upgrade the current roster as much as he can. And after these moves we’d still have quality coming up. With the exception of defense. But I think they draft Nemec or Jiricek in the draft to address that

I didn’t say JVR is Gaudreau. Just saying he would replace some of the goals lost.

And Monahan hasn’t performed up to his contract the last 3 seasons

He really shouldn't. He should leave instead.

Last 2 seasons* and both seasons he was injured all but 6 games

I would accept that offer as the Los Angeles GM.
