Flyers TRADE Farabee, Frost to Flames | Broad Street Hockey
The Philadelphia Flyers are trading Joel Farabee AND Morgan Frost to the Calgary Flames for a package that involves Andrei Kuzmenko. That’s all we know right now.
The trade allows language barrier relief for Michkov in a fellow Russian Kuzmenko who played 11 yrs in the KHL and can assist in development of the young 19 yr old winger Brierre had a similar need when he entered the league with his language barrier Kizmenko can lead by example and assist in the locker room
So It’s a salary dump for a team trying to g to get out of Scott Fletcher’s salary cap woes for a translator, potential and a couple draft picks that may assist in potentially moving up in the draft or acquiring more assets… Frost & Farbabee aren’t in the future rebuild plans and this will get them definitely better odds in the lottery in next years draft
It’s good value when you consider the difficulties of developing a 19yr old and needing assets (cash and draft picks) to acquire more top level talent via draft or free agency
I’m a flames fan, Pelletier is a great locker room guy his teammates absolutely love him but with that said I’m really not convinced he’s definitely an nhl player yet.
Joe Demarini hitting the copium hard, as a Flames fan I don't know just how good the players we are receiving are, but i know they are young and can still change their ways. Kuzmenko is 29 and was invisible this year, I can't imagine how he will fit in Torts lineup. Pelletier is a good energy guy, but that's it. Steve is right to be pissed , Flyers traded two young players still with upside for basically a grinder and a floater. The Flyers might not value those players anymore, but thinking the rest of the league doesn't value them is a huge mistake.
geez can't stand steve screeching. frost was tried this season in so many ways. he is a weight at least in this team. cant see how beezer and frost move forward for last seasons. move on
This is the worst Flyers podcast I’ve seen. Do you pay the fat screechy guy in french fries and onion rings. He probably bought a Frost jersey and will need to work a couple extra shifts at Best Buy to get another one from China. Frost wasn’t getting resigned and they obviously shopped him with no takers. Farabee is the bigger loss but bad contract. Kuzmenko played with Mich in the KHL and had 39 goals a couple years ago but there’s no $ committed after this year. Pelletier is a point a game guy in the AHL and younger. They have 7 picks in the first 2 rounds now and dumped 5 mil in salary for next year.
The Flames board are so happy, the Flyers boards are so sad. Underwhelming and disappointing trade, I give this a C- or a D, sorry Danny you should have gotten the 1st back instead of the 2nd.
Y’all need to relax. The flyers are unwatchable and they need to tank this year for a high grade center. That being said they should use those 2nd rd picks to move the late 1st higher in the draft. They need to focus on michkov and his pure talent and who’s to say they don’t trade more assets for more picks? I personally want them to trade every player on the team and just build around michkov.
Both players need a change of scenery and they free salary. Jet going to be on team next year. Pelletier will be good more buzz than Farabee and less money. Will be more moves so patience. Calgary get some potential as well if scenery change gets Farabee going. Frost is risky defensively and hot and cold but wish him well in Calgary. Look forward to seeing what happens.
Just awful fam. Flyers trade away two previous 1st rounders for waiver guy, expiring contract & 2nd round pick. Wow. Briere putting on clinic on how to sell low. Drysdale needs to be traded next – can't even imagine what Briere would get…back up Goalie?
Good move for both teams..Pelts might have succeeded in Calgary but the other 3 need a change of scenery…and Kuzy wasn’t gonna be a Flame next year Hope the Flyer kids find their game in Calgary
This is a great trade for the Flyers. Pelts is a great guy to have around.. Kuzmenko will end up being the best player in this deal. This season. Look at his history.. He tends to play well when he changes spots out the gate. Flyers want that lightening and they get a 2 pick, love it.
Kuzemko scored 39 goals in Vancouver in his first season and played with Michkov in the KHL and this draft supposed to be very deep. Maybe you should do your homework first before going live. Both players have enough time to show if they should have a future in Philly, otherwise Flyers will clear cap space and in addition, they now have 7 picks in the first two rounds… calm down

So

Pelletier is ahl filler so they can call up Jett?

Steve is what is wrong with this fan base. Plain and simple.

They act like everything has to happen at the trade deadline I don’t think Risto is moved until the offseason if at all
You guys got hosed
Steve must be 5 years old if he can't understand how this was a fantastic trade for the flyers.
The value of Wayne Frostzky was never high. He is a nothing player
You complain that they don’t make trades. He makes a trade and you still complain.
Flames fan here. Philly is getting two of the best locker room guys in the NHL. Pelletier is all hart, a guy you want on your team.
It doesn’t make us better Danny always told us he would make a trade if it makes us better this makes us worse and gives the team no hope
Both players need a change of scenery and they free salary. Jet going to be on team next year. Pelletier will be good more buzz than Farabee and less money. Will be more moves so patience.

Philly lost the trade. Suck it up and quite bitching 😂😂😂
Both Pelltier's floor and ceiling isn't as high as Frost's. But he's a fantastic teammate.

Hope the Flyer kids find their game in Calgary
I think the flames taking on the full contract knocked it down to a 2nd
I would trade half of these flyers roaster. Its just so mid im glad we traded em
This is a great trade for the Flyers. Pelts is a great guy to have around.. Kuzmenko will end up being the best player in this deal. This season. Look at his history.. He tends to play well when he changes spots out the gate. Flyers want that lightening and they get a 2 pick, love it.
Good trade I like
Stop complaining this is a good trade

Steve is wrong
