Flyers fans are just like flames fans.

They say frost and farabee suck but they’re also mad Brière didn’t get a 1st in return. In many cases the same people hold both opinions lol.

7th in 2028? LOL. Brière drove a hard bargain.

God I love this trade. Jettison pieces that weren't in the big picture, bring in a Center and a speedy big winger. I wanted an LD but this is a hell of an addition.

Farabee has had pretty good stretches where he looks like a first line player.

If the deal works out to basically consist of Pelletier, a 2nd and a 7th for Farabee and Frost it’s hard to argue this isn’t a good deal. Farabee may slot as a league average 2nd line wing, which is what Pelletier likely becomes in Philly. Pelletier’s attitude combined with his skill set likely result in him being the best player in the deal in the long run, but Farabee has already acclimated to the league and adds something the Flames wouldn’t have for the remainder of the season that Pelletier would not. This helps them pushing for the playoffs.

This is the kind of deal the Flames can afford to make, they have a number of prospects on LW so a player like Pelletier will have to move out at some point. I doubt either of these guys add much value after a couple of years, but given the prospect barn the Flames are constructing they can afford to make some deals that meet short term needs.

Both players are underperforming slightly but had better output recently. Feels much in the same vein as sharangovich but x2.

That 2nd round pick is really going to be a difference maker. Brutal return for a rebuild IMO.

But even still, does it actually make sense? They willingly chose to make this deal

A 7th-round pick three years out… the NHL equivalent of pocket lint.
