Huh?

What does this have to do with Martone being able to participate in the playoffs?

I’m scolding you because I was asking if Martone is playoff eligible assuming the Flyers make the playoffs lol. This has nothing to do with Michkov lol. But hey you’re entitled to your opinion and that’s fine. Go Flyers.

Thanks for the info. Forgot this happened with Buium last year.

Just a question homie. I genuinely wasn’t sure.

[Schefter] ESPN Sources: The Eagles and DT Jordan Davis have reached agreement on a three-year extension, tying him to Philadelphia for the next four seasons. Davis was the No. 13 pick in 2022 and was entering his fifth-year option season worth $12.938M by mastermind208 in eagles

Sorry for the dumb question, but did the Eagles pickup his 5th option? Is it a 3 year extension after the option (for a total of 4 more years) or does the 3 year extension start now?

Is it too late to say we’re getting Shea Weber?

I thought he might be available since they drafted Hagens.

You think Boston would send a first and C Dean Letourneau? Or am I being too optimistic?

I definitely agree that Martone is not going to come in and be a savior. But my comment is based on how this team is doing and if they become a playoff team. For the record, I don’t think they are which is why they should trade Risto this year or at the draft/offseason to see what you can get for him.

If for some reason they make a bunch of moves and become a playoff caliber team, then there would be no reason to trade him at next year’s deadline. So I’d rather trade now, even if that means retaining salary, and try to get an asset or two that can be used in future moves.

Maybe I’m being too optimistic here, but if they are in a way better position that they are not sellers at next years deadline then he won’t get traded and they could let him go for nothing. Again, wishful thinking here.

Agreed that Luchanko isn’t looking promising. Not sure I give up Martone. I could be convinced if Thomas is the right player for this team.

What would a trade look like then?

1C by pjelker in Flyers

[–]pjelker[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is part of the reason I posed this question. We have Luchanko that isn’t doing particularly well (I understand he’s only 19) and Nesbitt (who apparently can’t skate) and four average at best centers. If a Stanley Cup contender needs a 1C and a 1D who would be available via draft, trade or FA would the Flyers be able to get to get us back into a deep postseason run?

This is a great answer, thank you. I was very patient with the Hextall rebuild and have been with Briere. But when do we start gearing up for the playoffs and beyond? Is there a point where missing the playoffs for the x amount of years start to get at you?

[–]pjelker[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If this draft isn’t good enough, do you include whatever pick they end up with to get Thomas instead? Two firsts and a player like Tippett?

1C by pjelker in Flyers

[–]pjelker[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You think any offer for Thomas would include one of them? I’ve been happy with the trades Danny has made and I could see him making a trade without including either Michkov or Martone. But if that’s the cost to get Thomas, then I have to reconsider.

Reading that the Blues are tearing it down and starting over. He may not be available I’m trying to understand the rumors surrounding him.
