Jesus, you guys are brutal about the Reichel thing. I took the damn trade idea from a Hawks fan lmao

As for the Frost/Zegras thing, I've realized people grossly misunderstand Tortorella the last couple of years. He's been more than fine with players who don't defend particularly well and play with skill so long as they work hard (which Zegras does, I don't think he gets enough credit for that). Everyone thought he'd hate TK and Tippett, when in reality he absolutely loves both of them. With Frost in particular, he just has a weird bone to pick that I don't think anyone truly understands

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Renegade_H</b></div><div>We can take Krebs for salary reasons if need be, but Flyers would probably want Kulich, Savoie, or Ostlund included.</div></div>

They should take an offer like this for TK in a heartbeat. I honestly think replacing Krebs with the guys you listed would make this an overpay by Buffalo. Adding a guy who slots into 3C immediately + plays a style that would work great in Philly, as well as adding a pick that can land one of Eiserman/Catton/Iginla/Buium/Helenius/Yakemchuk, while finally saving yourself the trouble of paying a RW a bit too much money in the early stages of a rebuild when you're already organizationally loaded at RW?

The only unfortunate part of this trade is the fact that I doubt Briere would actually do this, even though it'd be a really smart move for the future of the franchise

Stealing this from a guy from SMAHT scounting, but I think the Hill I'll die on for this upcoming draft class is that Boisvert doesn't even deserve to sniff a top-15 spot.

"The odds Boisvert becomes a 2nd liner are pretty low...

0.70 non-PP P/GP and 27.21% of team goal involvement?

Well, in last 20 years ONLY Max Pacioretty has became a top 6 NHLer with such stats in USHL in draft year."

I think because he's a big, physical Center who has been on a lot of radars for awhile that a lot of people view him as a safe and easy pick, but when the data shows that little hope for him becoming an impact NHL player I think selecting him with a high 1st would be a terrible idea, especially when guys like Hage, Greentree, Jiricek and MBN are all available and track significantly better.

Also FTR: I don't think you're wrong that he could be a top-15 pick, I think there's a good chance he will be. I'm just saying my personal opinion is that he absolutely should not be

TK trade looks decent, but I would avoid taking Clifton back if possible and I'd guess Kulich will end up being a LW long term in the NHL. If we wanted a Center I'd target Ostlund instead

Florida will not let that offer sheet go unmatched, and honestly Philly would be making a huge mistake going any higher than that given the fact that there's a very real chance they regress pretty hard next season and would likely be giving away a top-12 pick in that case

Toronto trade is fine in value but the Flyers are looking to get bigger in size, I can't imagine Robertson is a guy they'll view as a fit

Lastly, the Ottawa trade is <em>way</em> off. Like, the Flyers are getting absolutely robbed blind in that deal, I'd be looking for at least triple the value coming back from the Flyers side if they were gonna move Frost.

I could see an offseason similarish to this going down (with the exception being the Frost trade), but a couple of minor things being different
