With all the attention this off season to cap and contracts, the value of players signed to decent contracts for a number of years has increased. That describes a Konecny to a T.
But it depends on how Philly values Johnny. Philly is trending quite nicely this season, if they simply stay the course, they will be fine.

I had the same thoughts myself, honestly. But I think that deal is at least semi-realistic. I guess it depends on whether Philly actually really wants Gaudreau as much as Flyers fans do or whether it’s just a fan thing.
I would also consider doing Gaudreau for Konecny straight up. That trade might allow the Flames to sign someone like Duclair.
