Rank these Flyers from “Most Likely” to “Least Likely” to be moved before the deadline: Atkinson, Laughton, Risto, Seeler, Walker.
How has the situation surrounding Carter Hart affected their deadline/rebuild plans since being down a starting caliber goalie?
Obviously they’ve committed to a rebuild like they’ve mentioned, but is a goalie something they’d look at for this deadline or wait until the off-season?
How seriously did the Flyers try to trade Carter Hart last offseason? And do you think the Flyers were surprised when he was named one of the group of 5 in the HC investigation?
What is the minimum the Flyers would accept for Scott Laughton considering they will still have time to trade him in the offseason?
Is there a minimum compensation for Walker, or will we be trading him no matter what, and simply taking best offer available even if it is not as good as fans expect?
There’s been a few rumors about the Flyers have basically all but signed a new contract for Konecny and they’re just waiting until June 1st (I think is the date?) to complete the deal. Is there any truth to this and if so, any idea on how long/how much?
Are GMs around the league viewing the Flyers’ asking prices for our players as exorbitant or mostly reasonable in the context of other past and present deadline exchanges?
If the flyers can’t sell any of the assets, do you think they try and go for a back-up goalie? They’ve had their streaks, towards the end of the season they like to get hot.
What other players around the league compare to our popular trade chip babes and what are the asking prices for those players?

It’s been reported that the Flyers may be willing to take on bad contracts to improve trade returns with some of their new found cap space. Which players/contracts from other contending teams would be some examples?
Last year it was reported that Danny tried really hard to move up in the draft. With us having 2 first round picks and potentially more assets, how likely do you think it is that Danny tries to move up in the draft this year?
What’s your caffeine intake these days?
How do you feel about SanFilippo being silenced again and again by Torts?
Does it put more pressure on writers to who put out “rumor” pieces so that they don’t get on Torts bad side?
Any talk of Kolosov joining the team for a playoff push?
We’ve heard a lot of trade rumors circling around Laughton, Walker, Seeler, Atkinson, and Risto, but are there other players we may not be expecting that have a chance to be traded?

Why are we here and how should we live?
Is Frost someone the Flyers are open to trading?
How committed do you think the FO is to an actual rebuild vs the retooling that has haunted the franchise for years? I’m aware it’s early days but it sure seems like they are very reluctant to move on from veterans who may fetch them quality assets.

Any big name superstars that’ll be free agents this year that’re highly likely to make a deal with Philly?
Given the success they’ve had this season, and assuming the rebuild is still on, do you feel the flyers are more likely to target high value picks, or high upside prospects, such as Easton Cowan from Toronto or Maverick Borque from Dallas?
If Sandstrom isn’t any better than Petersen, do we does that have an effect on any trade deadline moves?
Is there any recent Matvei Michkov news?
What do you think the Flyers should do at the deadline?
Do you expect Sean Couturier to bounce back or is this his new standard?
What’s the mascot market like this season? Slapshot’s clearly lost a step and I’m wondering if he might end up in Florida. I mean, they have to cut Stanley at this point. The scandal is too big. But does that leave the door open for Winger the Eagle to come out of retirement?
Is there any way the Flyers keep both Walker and Seeler and let Risto and Staal go once they have enough blueliners back from injury ?
How did the Flyers actually know about Carter Hart’s rape accusations before they drafted him? If they knew most, if not all, of what happened, who was the one who made the final decision to draft, and then sign, him?
1. When it comes to the contract situations between Seeler and Walker are both getting traded or is one going to be staying.
2. Will the Flyers prioritize prospects who are NHL ready or long term prospects who will be ready 2-3 years down the line?
3. Do you see Philly trying to acquire a goalie prospect or veteran goalie for late round asset or are they remaining in house.
When the team is having a tough time scoring, do you ever catch yourself saying “just wait until Michkov is here”? In the same vein, is that something reporters talk about? The most exciting thing to happen to this franchise in over a decade is drafting him but he still feels so far away. I’m interested if you guys talk about him and his potential impact at all even though it (theoretically) will take 2 more years until he gets here
Any musical artists you’ve really been enjoying lately?
Do you think you could beat Charlie O’Conner in a game on ‘Go Fish’?
Good evening, everyone! Time to tackle your questions starting …. now!
