You have to give to get. 2 picks for a legit top 4 dman is not a big deal to me.

While it is early do you think the resign him?

Possible-

It depends on how Niskanen fits at year end and how their young D develop in season.

If they do, it would mean the flyers had a good season, which I’m all for.

Back in his time, especially 2009-2011, a lot of people seemed to think he was a less than capable manager who simply got by because his team was so stacked. Part of that was probably his personality and the way he spoke, but that was the consensus before he left.

Tactically he was not one of the best managers in baseball. When he had a lesser lineup he got out managed by LaRussa in a playoff series. What he was best at was managing a roster of stars.

A few years back, the NHL put out a list of its 100 greatest players ever. Jonathan Toews made it. So take any list with a grain of salt.

Toews is going to be a hall of fame player when all is said and done.
