It’s actually not a bad outcome for the Flyers. They turned an asset that didn’t want to sign with them, which limited his trade value, into a solid return with Drysdale and a second-round pick. That’s strong asset management. Philadelphia knew Gauthier is a great player but couldn’t get him under contract.
The Zegras trade, on the other hand, looks a lot worse for Anaheim right now.

Trevor Zegras is making up for that trade..
