    I think they package him in the offseason to move up In the first round but we’ll see

    Given the prices forwards were going for at this deadline I would have been really surprised if anyone offered up something decent. People may be upset that they didn’t we didn’t trade him, but the return for a guy who is ppg and scoring at close to a 40 goal pace over the last six seasons is only a first if it’s pick 31 or 32. 

    Glad Laughton is staying around, but this is not the year to have a fire sale especially if you don’t have to.

    I dont really understand trading him just for the sake of trading him.

    Seems like he’s a locker room guy.

    I understand we have a long term plan but we already have a *bunch* of picks. If all you’re getting is a 3rd or 4th, what is the point?

  4. Good deadline

    We still got a 1st for Walker and far better players than Laughton like Toffoli didnt even get a 1st

    These trying times have not been doing Slaughts hairline any favors.

    But long may he reign

    Me happy. me want flyers strong. Flyers leadership strong

    All aboard the Murder…. face….

    This is one where it legit makes sense to sell, but it also saddens me, because in years of flat Flyers effort, Laughts was often the only guy who you could clearly see pushing. We’ve got a team now doing that same thing, and it would be great if he could go on the trip with him. I think him going on this upcoming (maybe) playoff journey will be a nice capstone – and after that, I wish him very well with a contender.

    Good. He was born to be a Flyer and I hope he never plays a game for a different club

    Whew…..thank you, now let’s beat Tampa.

  11. A_Stickman_Jr

    At this point he’s a minor Philadelphia legend

    Happy to see Laughton sticking around. I just hope he’s still at the top of his game in two, three years when the Flyers are (hopefully 🙏🏼) back to an elite level

    Oh thank god, my brave face was getting tired. LFG unofficial captain.

    I never expected him to get dealt this year. *Two years* from now though…

    He’s a solid leader in the locker room, originally before the cliff he fell off, I had him as an option for captain. Idk. Just my opinion.

    Great news for those of us with Laughton adidas jerseys in their portfolio! I’ll be wearing the 21 at the Isles game in April.

    Dude plays hard every game, that’s the kind of player I would want on my team

  18. Snips_Tano

    Seems we overrate him if he’s not ready tradeable for even some 2nds.

    Out of 524 forwards (minimum 50min) Laughton ranks

    524/524 in xGAR.

    This guy sucks. Shoulda traded him last draft.
