Hopefully the “other components” are Philly retains some salary. Hayes at a 3.5 annual cap hit is great. Hayes at 7.1, not so much
Tell me they retained some salary. Please
Flyers are retaining 50%. 3.5mil for 3 years

50% retained for a 6th can’t be the whole deal, right??
This is great for us.
This is a awesome deal. 6th rounder for a guy that stabilizes our biggest weakness. This gives Alexandrov and dean some security to attempt to be every day guys. If they have a good camp/do well when their number is called, maybe we can bounce schenn back out to wing. But at the least we at least we have our top 9 figured out
Love this move. If we signed a scoring center for 3×3.5 in free agency to fit in our middle six we would be jumping for joy. He’s 6’5” and scored 50 points last year he’s a solid insurance for our young guys coming up and kapanen and vrana.

Not bad, a 3c for Berglund money. Could be worse.
Okay 50% retained for 3 years for only a 6th is good
Holy shit this is a great deal. I thought it would be a much higher pick going the other way. Hayes for $3.5 for 3 years for basically nothing is unreal and a much better deal than anything in FA.
Big Dick Doug does it again.
A 6th round pick?? That’s a fucking steal.
Also, army might be moving a forward for a defensemen
So much better than what was originally reported with Sanheim and Krug and the first. I’m pleased with this
Looks like we got ourselves a Philly Cheesesteak on the team now 🔵🔥 #LetsGoBlues
Ok yeah I was against it at first but for a 6th and with 50% retention I’m all for it
Lines next season as of now:
Vrana-Thomas-Kyrou
Buchnevich-Schenn-Blais
Saad-Hayes-Kapanen
Neighbours-Toropchenko-Walker
He can’t keep getting away with this!
**I USED TO REF!**
Could a third team be be taking a player/prospect from the Blues and shipping a bunch of picks to the Flyers? I am really struggling to see any kind of fair value for the Flyers here, this seems like an absolute torch job by STL at face value
Looks like our 2024 6th Rd pick is gonna be a steal of a deal! #Winning #ThanksFlyers 😂👍
Flyers sub: “WTAF???”
