The Flyers also ate 7.65 mil of cap for 1 year and 5 mil for two. Recent trades have shown that eating 6.5+ mil cap for a single season is worth a late 1st in itself.

So the value of Provorov himself was considerably lower than a 1st and 2 2nds.

The Athletic article was based on discussions with several other NHL correspondents. Which is more likely?

A) Hanifin is worth less than a lot of Flames fans think.

B) Several correspondents in different NHL cities all have a hate-on for the Flames. For reasons.

The offers seem a bit low, but I expect they’re closer to the actual return than a lot of fan proposals being bandied around.
