Yech. Last summer the Flyers have traded away: Nolan Patrick Phil Myers Shayne Gostisbehere Robert Hägg Jake Voracek 2021 1st Round Pick 2022 2nd Round Pick 2023 2nd Round Pick 2022 7th Round Pick And have added: Ryan Ellis Rasmus Ristolainen Cam Atkinson $625K of cap space Ryan Ellis played 4 games this season. Cam Atkinson has been pretty good. Ristolainen, they basically have to trade him now or sign him long-term. But they traded a 1st, 2nd and a roster player for him. So if they lose him for nothing or don't get much for him... ouch. Also Giroux may very well get traded too. What a mess lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 I would think that if the Flyers ever decided to trade Atkinson, that they should be able to get a decent return...he's pretty productive and his AAV isn't too bad...he's owed three more years. The team trading for him would be buying his Age 33, 34, and 35 seasons (a little risky). Not a bad guy to obtain for a legit contender looking for one last scoring piece (or loses one due to injury, UFA, etc). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil Dan 56 Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 As a former recreational league level/street hockey goalie (many years and pounds ago) I hate that Zegras goal, but as a hockey fan that is maybe the smoothest Michigan goal I’ve seen. That kid is something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagknife Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Also, in case anyone didn’t see, Kane signed with Edmonton for $2.1m. Needless to say I’m totally “shocked” Edmonton made the signing for over League minimum for him. Cannot wait for him to put up some good numbers but be overshadowed by him finding something else to be a douche about, then smearing his team when it fails miserably Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s crazy that was the Jack Hughes draft. Feels like forever go (I guess a lot of bad hockey will do that). And Zegras is still a rookie this season. I think he just missed the cutoff having played 24 games last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devilsfan118 Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Holland is just.. wild. I just do not understand what he's thinking. Maybe he was competing for Kane's services, but I can't imagine there were a ton of suitors that would've driven the cost up that much.

I mean, it can’t get any worse in Edmonton so why not add a 30 goal power forward? It’s just for one year. Worse that happens is they miss the playoffs, which is how they’re going now anyway.

Interesting that the opposing goalie tonight is Cam Talbot, who played so well for the Rangers when Lundqvist got hurt a few years ago.

I don't know if that's really accurate...he started 158 games for them and continued to get #1 treatment during his Age 34, 35, and 36 years, despite his play having noticeably dipped. By the time he was 37, Shesterkin arrived and he was simply younger and better; besides, as we know with Marty, these things rarely end pretty for declining stars.

Marty could’ve retired a Devil (as a backup) had he wanted, and never would’ve been pushed out the way the Rags flat out cut Lundqvist.

For my money I still choose Hughes. But Zegras is going to be electrifying to watch. I wasn't serious. I don't think we will regret picking Jack. Out of interest I had a look, since they are easily comparable because of age. If you wipe out Jack's first season and just take their age 19 and 20 seasons where they are both in the NHL they are both putting up 0.70 points per game.
