I don't think Laughton is a legitimate top 6 forward, but he's a guy who can play with top 6 forwards. Not sure if he's better option than Chiasson right now in the line-up, but he would be better long term.

A line of Tkachuk-Bennett-Laughton would be a pain to play against.

He could put up 20-20 in a good year who is also a heart and soul guy.

What are the Flyers even looking for?

I'd trade anyone of Shinkaruk, Klimchuk or Poirier for him. Not sure if that's enough though. Laughton has the better pedigree. Not sure if I'd do Jankowski though, as Janko is a big skilled centreman.
