Laughton for Carter at 50% should work under the cap.

Laughton is 10 years younger, but the Flyers don't seem to want to use him as the 3C.

- Feanor


Not for Laughton. No, if you need a roster spot, Pitlick maybe. I think that the cap space would need to be a separate deal, Ghost maybe.

I think LA would want prospects and/or a draft pick in exchange for Carter.

We’ve been spoiled by having Timonen, Streit and Ghost prior to Provorov. Some of us don’t realize how thin an argument it is to complain about Provorov on the Power Play right now. Let’s return to this debate in 4 to 6 years.

Provorov sometimes reminds me of Timonen on the PP. I’m not even sure exactly what it is...but I do hope it develops.

Good win. Overall team win.

Regarding leadership-

It is easy to get up for better teams especially rivals. A good leadership unit will make sure the team is up for every game regardless of opponent. Hopefully we start to turn the corner after the break. Every game will be big down the stretch. Lots of games versus the East.

I would trade Pitlick for Carter either. The only deals involving us trading someone away that I would do are the ones that are unrealistic and never happen like getting the good Aho

I get the exact same feel. Provorov is as smart and as well balanced as Kimmo Timonen was.

I just want to make sure I read this right.

You are suggesting Laughton for Carter regardless of any cap %?

Provorov looks uncomfortable at times on the PP, Timonen, never... you clearly don’t watch if you think Provy has been good on PP1, someone mentioned his goals on the power play I’d bet most or all came while on PP2

Sounds like Comcast had Grittys back and said they had no witnesses and couldn’t prove it. For now...

Absolutely sounds like it. Plus if there was harm done to the kid, wouldn't you go to the hospital and also file a police report immediately?

Not sure if this was mentioned before, but could this technically happen:

Late in this season, could the Flyers offer a contract to Laczynski? And if he signs he could be on the active roster for a possible playoff push? He's not just a kid coming from Jrs, he'll be 22.

I could be wrong, but I think that's essentially the same path Cale Makar took last season for Colorado's playoff run.

I think you're right. He came to mind and so did another player from the Preds. But the Preds may have been 2-3 years ago

Strong hard pass. Are you seriously suggesting that?

Jeff Carter wouldn't be happy coming back here. Like at all.
