My point is, the Flyers chances to win Stanley Cups didn't evaporate when they traded Carter and Richards. Losing those two but adding Voracek, Simmonds, Schenn, and Couturier is fantastic GM work. There's no other way to put it.

The loss of Chris Pronger forever put Philly's cup hopes on life support. Trading Bobrovsky and signing Bryzgalov put them in the ground.

And if Philly hadn't made the moves they did, they'd have a washed out Mike Richards on their cap until 2019.

That's all I'm saying
