Before the Philadelphia Flyers left for Pittsburgh, Flyers head coach John Tortorella delivered an insightful media session regarding the looming March 7 trade deadline, and his players most heavily rumored to be available — Rasmus Ristolainen and Scott Laughton.

So, in other words, Torts is really the busdriver
Thanks Charlie you always deliver good information. Keeping us the fans updated on our team. 👍
at 5Mil keep Risto
I think Risto is safe, he has improved quite a bit since coming to Philly. With the cap going up his contract is team friendly and he has shown tons of improvement. Laughton I think its time to move on and if the Flyers get a 1st take it. I also think York should be traded, he's going to be a RFA the Flyers could get some talent adding a pick to a York trade.
It’s a shame Risto is 30. He has really improved his game. To be honest-I would not be happy with just a late 1st rounder for him. If I were Danny, I’d be on the horn with Washington. They are the best team in The East and Ovi is playing lights out! They must have Lord Stanley in their sights. I would try my hardest to pry Ryan Leonard from them. Laughton & 1st round pick (EDM) for Leonard. Risto & 2nd round pick ……….possible 1sr round (EDM) for Leonard. I love that kid, he would be a great fit for Philly……and he is a center!
It's amusing how Torts likes to bounce back and forth between, "I've never heard of the guy" & "I don't pay attention to anything else happening across the league" to suddenly being in a position to offer salient advice about trade value.
Charlie gives the best Flyers coverage
Team isn't remotely close to good enough, trade everyone
Unless they can get another #1 or another #2 for either of them, I say keep them. Preferably, I would keep Risto.
I definitely think Laughton is getting traded’ not sure about risto’ but at the right price he’ll be gone to
Risto is the type of player that does not grow on trees. You can't keep getting rid of your best players, for draft picks that may, or may not turn into something in a few years.That's just pushing the goal post further down the field. An eternal rebuild. If any club is willing to trade an NHL 1st line center then maybe. Who's stupid enough to do that?
Ristolainen is the most steady Defensemen on the team 🤔🏒
There’s no ready now replacement for Risto in the system. Unless a deal comes along that blows them away Risto stays. Laughton will probably be moved.
The only correct answer is to trade them both
Oilers would be a good fit for both Laughton and Risto. They want to win now so they’ll give a good package back
Risto seems like a next year type of issue. Move off him then if you’re going to move off him. Unless something wows briere I wouldn’t take it for risto
Charlie! I love these!!! I'm glad Torts has a say. DannyB can learn from him. Love this.
Trade em both and ask them if they want Coots as well
