The Philadelphia Flyers won back-to-back Stanley Cups in the 1970s, but since then they have yet to win the Stanley Cup again. The Flyers have some great players on the team, but I think they might need to make some adjustments to win it all.
At the trade deadline, Philadelphia Flyers make one major trade:
Philadelphia Flyers acquire Ryan Ellis, Erik Haula from the Nashville Predators for Oskar Lindblom, Phil Myers, German Rubtsov, and a 2021 1st round pick.
The Flyers acquire Ryan Ellis, a top-pair defenseman to pair with Ivan Provorov.
With the addition of Ryan Ellis, the Philadelphia Flyers make the playoffs but get eliminated in the 2nd round of the playoffs.
Before the expansion draft, the Philadelphia Flyers trade Jakub Voracek to the Detroit Red Wings for a 2021 2nd round pick (from NYR), 2022 2nd round pick.
The Flyers free up more than 8 million in cap space by unloading Voracek's contract, and at the same time add two 2nd round picks.
Philadelphia Flyers lose Scott Laughton to the Seattle Kraken in the Expansion Draft.
Before the 2021 draft, two trades are made:
Philadelphia Flyers trade James Van Riemsdyk to the Anaheim Ducks for Josh Manson, Sam Steel, 2021 3rd round pick.
The Flyers get a veteran defenseman Josh Manson, Sam Steel, and a 3rd round pick in exchange for JVR, who just had a tremendous year.
The Flyers also trade Shayne Gostisbehere to the LA Kings for a 2021 2nd round pick.
The Flyers around retooling their defense, so they ship Gostisbehere to LA for a 2nd round pick.
