I agree with this but trading provy. i wouldn’t deal him. I actually think jones and provy would be a really good pairing. 

that said i would deal TK if the right deal came along. It depends on which player they are dealing him for. If it’s to get a upgrade or if it’s straight up for someone like Johny gaudreu who i just like more than TK 

They won’t move G. I’d bet he gets an extension at some point. The time to move him was after his 100 point season when the following year the Flyers floundered. I don’t think voracek is really moveable with his contract. Do think there’s a chance the Flyers try to push JVR to seattle. 

Yeah, Proborov is a great piece, and  they don't need to be cutting defensive talent, but it seems like he figures into a lot of trade scenarios. You might have  give him up in a package if you really want a king's ransom.

Ive seen more trades include Myers or sanheim tbh then provy. I’d love to have jones, provy and sanheim with York coming up. I’m ok trading Myers in the right deal.

There’s been smoke with Seth jones and the Flyers for a couple weeks. I’d kind of be shocked if the Flyers don’t try to add a defenseman like jones this offseason. 

I would try to push Patrick in a Jones deal. Myers, Patrick, #13 and a mid tier prospect like rubstov.

I’d rather just significantly over pay for Hamilton. I don’t get the point of including any of our NHL ready young defensemen. It just opens up another hole on the back end.

What a terrible way to go

Columbus Blue Jackets goalie Matiss Kivlenieks died last night 

According to police, they were in a hot tub when a firework tipped over and started firing at them, they all got out to run and he slipped and hit his head on the concrete 

Even worse than first reported 

 

 

 

honestly i would just trade him instead of the expansion draft route where you give up a prospect. I get his contract isn’t good but i suspect you wouldn’t have to give up a prominent prospect in another trade. 

Also Flyers appear to be out on Seth jones according to Elliotte Friedman 

13. The Seth Jones-to-Philadelphia discussions appear off, for now. The Flyers can’t get the commitment they want from Jones. That’s his right, to wait unless he’s certain, but Philly won’t make the deal without it.

Jones could be planning on testing the free-agent waters next offseason no matter what. If that’s the case, it should bring down the asking price a lot. It may also give the Flyers pause, as Friedman mentioned, because they’d ideally get their long-term solution this summer. Trading for Jones and then having him leave next offseason would put the Flyers back in the same spot that they’re in now.

If Jones isn’t willing to commit long-term to the Flyers, Fletcher may have to look elsewhere for his top-pair defenseman. Dougie Hamilton will be available in free agency and there are a handful of other defensemen available in the trade market.

They shouldn't give anything major to Seattle for them to take voracek, definitely not a prominent prospect. They can have a bottom 6 level prospect and maybe a late pick. Voracek isn't a scrub, he's just overpaid. They aren't getting a top 6 forward and a high level prospect for nothing.

As for Seth Jones, I can't imagine anything new coming out of that until after the expansion draft and he has a better idea of what his options are gonna be.

Voracek is the one high-priced player that doesn’t have a no-trade or NMC — that’s the only reason he’s being left out there.

Not sure I’d even give up the 13th overall pick for Seth Jones, much less any other assets.  Due for a big pay day after next season on an expiring contract; if he’s not willing to sign a long-term extension as part of any trade it’s all pointless 

So who's better- Seth Jones or Dougie Hamilton? Like others have said, I wouldn't give up a major prospect to get Jones if he doesn't sign an extension. Same can be said for Hamilton. They both have 1 more year before FA so they have the right to wait until then to get their money although risky. It'll be interesting. 

I also wouldn't give much to Seattle for Voracek. Draft pick or lower level prospect ok, but other than that, nope.

Columbus is going to get screwed with jones since he’s going to test FA. His value drops significantly in what they’ll get considering he’ll potentially walk in a year. They might just hold onto him until the trade deadline and hope a contender gets desperate then again it’s risky cause he’s coming off a "down” year

JvR doesn't have one either and will likely also be exposed

Would Seattle hiring Hakstol play any part into who the Kraken select or take from the Flyers?

I'm sure he'll have some say, hopefully he liked voracek during his time here.

 

Phil Myers and Nolan Patrick traded to Nashville for Ryan Ellis. Patrick then flipped by Nashville to Vegas.

Damn, still has 6 more years on that contract plus he has injury concerns. Hopefully the risk is worth it. Lord knows they needed a top line dman. Only had to give up Patrick and Myers so not too bad. 

This definitely has the feeling of a side deal to Seattle to take Jake or jvr, myers and Patrick with no picks for Ellis seems a little favorable for the flyers
