Pass on Faksa. Pens already have like three 4th line centers scattered throughout their bottom 6.

You’re getting Bourque tho who would probably be untouchable usually

First we need to improve the D Corps. The forward corps is more than fine, it's elite and more than enough for a Cup run.

Second, neither Bourque and Stankoven will be traded. This team needs them (and their cheap contracts) to replace the actual aging forward corps.

Third, the assets, in no order, available to improve the D Corps are the following: Any draft picks outside 1st rounders, any prospects outside Bourque-Stankoven-Bichsel, Dadonov, Faksa, Steel, Smith, Dellandrea, Lundkvist and maybe Hakanpaa.

Flyers would likely accept.
