I think this trade looks good for Calgary, though I understand what Philly is doing here as well.

Flyers can flip Kuz for another 2nd at the deadline. Also 15 million off the books for Philly
Really sad to see Peltier go. He was tight with Huby and Scoronato and he had such good energy. Hope he does well in Philly
Everybody's wheelin' and dealin'. Except Vancouver. They stuck in the mud.
A rental scoring winger, a kid who was on waivers last month, a 2nd and 7th for Frost and Farabee? WTF is Philly doing?
Frost and Farabee were the two players the Flyers took with the picks they acquired from the Blues in the Brayden Schenn trade.
Flames get the best 2 players in this trade? Seriously? Every player in this trade are in absolute slumps lol. Both teams win with the respective cap dumps they did.
Frost and Farabee were given so many opportunities with so many different line mates over the years and they never amounted to anything. I knew the Farabee contract was a massive overpay when it was signed. Finally good to see the Flyers shedding some of these 3rd line at best players that disappear for large stretches of time year after year. They had about 6 or 7 "lets see if they take the next step" players, and most have not in the slightest. Time to move on.
Yvonne thinks the Flyers highway robbed the Flames
Why??????
Because Yvonne hates the Flames
Weird teams keep giving up on there 1st round picks go flames go
That 2028 7th rounder is what makes this trade excellent for the Flyers. 😀
The Flyers just acquired two of the most optimistic guys in the league. 😃😃
I am a Flyers fan. Farabee had a few good years. He got injured and has not regained his form. Maybe he will in Calgary. I hope so, he is a good guy ( a lot of money for a maybe). Frost has just failed to impress
Kuzminko. Nucks not going to make it right 😂😂😂
I'm not sure how well Kuzmenko is going to get along with Tortorella. Tortorella is a defence first guy, and I don't think Kuzmenko is. I personally like Kuzmenko, but not sure how that will work out.
Torts: Benches Mitchkov…… Briere: Best I can do is trade for his friend Kuzmenko who gets benched in Calgary.
Imagine the face Torts made after hearing that he has to deal with another russian 💀
I'm not that excited but maybe Calgary got lucky?? Hope so.
Unreal indeed
The Flames definitely got the better end of the deal.
I miss those Flames jerseys, I’m not a huge fan of the current ones
The Flames robbed the Flyers.
I think the hard part is Farabee at 6 million a year. Thats the problem, and Frost will want a raise. It does hurt in my opinion as a Flyers fan I think seeing two younger forwards go, but at 25ish for Frost and Farabee they are "known quanaties" Flyers now have what 8 picks in the first two rounds this year? Is it a deep draft class? I actually don't know.
Now get a proper 1C
Calgary looking to win that WC2.
More pressure on VC Soap Opera.
Kuzzie a deadline flip trade to a playoff team needing scoring depth.
Torts out as HC after season is over. He has reached his ceiling with this team.
Flyers did trade two 40-50 point scorers to struggling player and unproven one with few draft picks, looks yikes to me right now😬
Good trade for Calgary.
So they'll be sitting on the bench together. 😂
I don’t know how other fans of the NHL and THG feel but I think these are the best videos on the channel, reporting on news of a trade or signing or important update relating to the league as a whole. Unbiased assessments about every team and seemingly every player is covered here. Hockey is much more than just box scores and it was previously difficult to keep up with everything going on across the NHL, making it less enjoyable to watch a random game going on. In the US, no one really does a good job of it in a comprehensive way like other pro sports. However, since I have followed this channel over the last number of years, I am watching more hockey and appreciating the game that much more; I am a Rangers fan but watched this video to learn more. “Knowledge is Power!” Keep up the great work Shannon!
As a Flyers fan, I don’t mind the trade. Frost and Farabee were not going to be in Philly much longer, Kuzmenko may give Michkov a boost of confidence which is exactly what he and Philly need. I’ve heard Pelletier and Kuzmenko are great locker room guys. I would like Philly to add more size and sandpaper to the line up though.
Joel Farabee skates like he’s carrying a piano on his back
Philly dumps 2 underperforming prospects from the failed Hextall Era and frees up cap space going forward. I'm all for the team getting worse this year and getting better odds for the draft lottery. They still need a 1C and 1D. Collect those ping-pong balls!
