The hurricanes aren't going to trade a very good contract in KK... Switch out KK for Turbo or Necas

It's a tad bit on the expensive side, I think a 3rd is better in the TK trade, at worst the van pick instead of STL. I

No reason for Dallas to make that trade. Laughton would be the only piece they would actually want. They won't be trading Harley

Ur lucky if that TK trade is enough not too much bud

Even if the Sabres were interested in DeAngelo - and his controversial history suggests they wouldn't be, especially at expense of someone like Jokiharju that they still think highly about - they would probably wait for the Flyers to buy him out and sign him as a free agent.

I agree

It's fine as is, it's about what he's worth

I would take Necas for that all day

That trade is exactly what he is worth as is

Nice job imo, RFAs get solid deals and the trades are mostly fair value

Yeah I said it's probably negotiable, I didn't say it was way off or anything. pretty sure I said if not a 3rd it's the van pick which is 1 pick later and gives wings still b2b picks in the 2nd

Dallas is up against the cap with all the big contracts they’ve given out to Miro, hintz, Robertson, Jake, on top of the Benn and seguin deals. They have no room to move. And they’re gonna have to pay Harley soon too. They do have the big dman they just drafted in the first last year too so they are very deep on the left side and much weaker on the right. Risto helps with that. He is always talked about being a force on a playoff team. He’s never had that chance. Dallas got really close and won’t want to run it back as is. This trade helps them. Laughton is definitely an upgrade over Faksa. I would even replace Laczynski with Allison as part of the negotiations

Turbo for sure (Philly wouldn’t I’m sure). Not Necas.

The trade is heavily in favour of Philly. Harley is a far better prospect than Zamula and/or Lacz. Marchment is a great player, just had a down year. Same cannot be said of Risto. Miller is more effective than Risto even. Laughton is the only good piece for Dallas in that deal. I don't see a way a trade beyond Faska + pick for Laughton works

Laughton looks to be getting a 1st or a 2nd all on his own. Faksa is a cap dump compared to Laughton. Especially after a very strong worlds tournament. Risto was much better this year. Especially in the second half of the year after he learned the new system. Marchment played out of his mind on Florida last year on a stacked team. Might have been a fluke that he cashed in on. His contract might not age well. And as I said, Dallas still has the first round LHD they drafted last year and with Esa and Miro on the left and locked in long term Harley won’t have much room to climb the depth chart. And if I swap in Allison, all of those guys fit their current contention window very well.

This is more of a push to win now kind of move. And after getting so close this year they are gonna try to win sooner rather than later while Benn and Seguin are still producing

I'd be okay switching KK for Turbo

Is Turbo teraveinen? If so then absolutely not flyers want young players under 25

He's probably going to be good for at least another half-decade so I don't know why you'd dismiss it out of hand... you might have to deal with another prospect or pick with him but I think he'd be a pretty good fit for the Philly team... maybe a Vasili Ponomaryov and a second-rounder if Philly dismisses it out of hand

But the flyers are not going to be good for the next several years. He’s a UFA after next year and they won’t spend cap on a UFA. It’s just not what they’re looking to do. They want to get younger and play the kids

So switch KK for a couple of prospects and a few picks

They have a very long window ahead of them. Bourque, Stankoven, Johnston are going to be key core pieces to the offense and will all be better than Benn and Seguin currently are. Add to that Hintz, Robertson, Heiskanen, and Oettinger and you have one of the best cores in the NHL. In my opinion this means they wouldn't be looking to trade for players that are all downgrades. Again, Laughton could be a target for Dallas if they find the cap space but it wouldn't be a trade involving 4 players a side.

Also Heiskanen plays both sides and primarily right. Lindell is not playing first pair LHD so that means that left side is wide open for Harley to climb if he proves himself worthy

I was actually just looking at their prospect pool and it is insane how deep it is. They really did build it the right way. They were very fortunate getting Jake hintz and Robertson with lay first or 2nd round picks. Just really good scouting by them. They also have Kyrou on RD coming up. They will probably win the cup in the next 5 years

The only trade that makes sense is the TK trade.
