Wow! Michkov making plays from the right wing? What a concept!
Very excited to see the package the Flyers come up with to land Auston Matthews this summer.
The fact that he wasn't a pure rental was what added to his value. Plus, given his injury history, the Flyers should have felt incentivized to trade him now. His value may never be this high again. This is a big whiff.
Not moving Ristolainen isn't the worst thing in the world if the Flyers manage to move him around the draft. If not, though, I'm not sure what the benefit of keeping him around is.
Regardless of what happens with Rasmus Ristolainen, Danny Briere has officially cemented himself as possibly the greatest general manager of all time, solely due to the fact that he somehow managed to obtain an asset for Nic Deslauriers.
One thing I've heard dating back to this past fall: the Flyers saw "big shot from the point for the PP" as a low-key big need. Jiricek has a bomb.
David Jiricek is a right-shot defenseman. Interesting the Flyers make this trade while teams are circling Rasmus Ristolainen โ also a right-shot defenseman.
Love Bobby Brink and happy he's going home to Minnesota. A lot of upside with David Jiricek, but need to see it at the NHL level.
Dear coworkers,
I apologize for my dour mood this afternoon. My favorite team didn't uproot the lives of players for the sake of my entertainment.
I will hold this against them until they win a Cup, or I die -- whichever comes first.
Sincerely,

It's a beautiful day to trade Rasmus Ristolainen for a first-round pick and a prospect.
The Flyers really are a spectacular level of stupid.
Broad Street Hockey group chat is off the chain today. Wish you could all be there.
This is the best trade deadline ever.
Nope
It makes sense that Tyler Myers got traded to Texas considering his neck is the size of it.
The Sabres are gonna be so fun in the playoffs.
If Tyler Myers is worth a second and a fourth, Rasmus Ristolainen is almost certainly worth a first. Especially if the Flyers retain salary.
Why go to bed on time when you can simply stay up late writing a tier list on trade probabilities for every player on the Flyers?
Possible. Likely? Definitely not
Been too long since I saw Trevor Zegras do his magic in the shootout. What a wizard.
Dan Vladar is a legitimate difference maker for the Flyers. This dude rocks so hard.
Michkov getting a proper overtime shift? Feel like I'm witnessing the Apollo 11 moon landing.
It's really gonna bum me out when the Flyers inevitably trade Bobby Brink one day. Not looking forward to that.
One-time 50-point getter Joel Farabee.
Matthew Schaefer is special, man.
FOLKS.
Christian Dvorak has been quite good today.
Best play-by-play in hockey.
Man, Jamie Drysdale is so fun. I love seeing him coming into his own.
