It's a take each other's trash move, essentially. The Flyers have too many centers, the Panthers have too many wings.

Rare Habs-Leafs trade in the works. Josh Gorges for an unnamed roster player (Kadri? Franson?JVR?), though the deal hinges on Gorges waiving his no-trade clause. It's a cap move, unloading a left defenseman, which the Habs have in abundance and making room for a young D-man like Beaulieu.

The Flyers have too many centers who can't play the wing. They clearly thought either Lecavalier or Baby Schenn would simply slide to the wing on the second line, but neither of them could make an impact on there. The Flyers were best this year when Lecavalier moved to fourth line center, which is insane for a guy with his contract. If they can move him and a defenseman with a bad contract (I am praying for MacDonald but it will never happen, so Fat Schenn or Grossmann will do), they might be in alright shape moving forward.
Paranteau and a fifth for Danny B?
Side effect of legalizing marijuana in Colorado. Only logical reason for why the Avalanche made that deal. Someone must have been high.

As for free agency yesterday I am less than thrilled with the additions so far, Robidas is 37 hundred years old and broke his leg twice last year and while I like Komarov, paying him more than Kadri is not smartest thing to do imo...
Ugh, Kadri. With any luck when his contract is up, we'll say bye-bye.
I have never liked his attitude, the way he celebrates his goals really puts me off sometimes and he basically strikes me as very entitled.
The same is true for at least 98% of all NHL players. Especially if they are from Canada, teenagers who are good at hockey are treated like kings everywhere they go, especially more so if they are good enough to be on track for the NHL as they are almost always the star of the local team. I remember we had one kid who went to my high school who played for 2 months for the Moncton major junior team (he played 3 or 4 games, was a healthy scratch for the rest, and then was cut outright in November) and wasn't any good at all, and the school still treated him coming to school for the first time in November like the Queen herself was showing up. We were all asked to come early that day so that we could applaud as he entered the school. Naturally I thought that was the dumbest shit I'd ever heard and stayed in bed and skipped first period because I knew nobody would be going to class. Worked out great for me
