This isn't too bad an offer though I think the Flyers probably keep Tippett for a decent while unless it's a massive overpay. Our RW depth would be super thin assuming TK is traded.

Why would you send Raanta down and not the waiver exempt and not at all NHL ready Kochetkov??

I don't hate either trade, but I do wish you could get infractions for awful lineup decisions on here. Breaking up the Fast - Staal - Martinook line that was the best in the league in terms of xG stats? You have Carolina's top producer from last season on the third line.

All in?

The value on the Hawks trade is fine but I don't think Chicago would use a retention spot on TJ for this return.

agreed. its going to be
bunting-who-jarvis
Necas-KK-Svech
Martinook-staal-fast
Noesen- Drury/Ponamarev-Lemeiux

Yes I know I left turbo out, I dont know where they play him which is why I think he gets traded. no point in playing him on the 4th line, and there is no room in the top 6.

Oh simple, you make the Staal line the 4th line. They are a 4th line so you play them like one. Then you play Noesen with Teuvo on the 3rd and go get a center to produce with that line.

Flyers decline. They have no reason to move Tippett unless they get a big offer. Tippett has the potential to turn into a big player and they have the time to hope that happens

This isn’t really all in. Flyers say no most likely and TJ is meh. No thx.

Sign me up for that tippet deal but unfortunately he will cost more

Tippett'a gonna cost a lot more than a single late 1st.

CHI should be able to get a higher quality package for Johnson 50% retained at the TDL, if he is healthy.
