Bailey’s Daily: Carter Hart Update; NHL Trade Rumors
In Friday’s edition of Bailey’s Daily, we’ll be talking the latest Philadelphia Flyers news, NHL news, stories, highlights, and more from the last day.
Flyers News
Philadelphia Flyers general manager Danny Briere gave his pre-2024 NHL Draft press conference on Thursday, answering all things draft and NHL free agency before the busy portion of the offseason begins. One topic that came up was restricted free agents, and that group includes Carter Hart.
But, Briere says he still has no idea what he can or cannot do with Hart at this time.
Elsewhere on the Flyers roster, Cam Atkinson may or may not be back with the team next season; the next step with Cam is still undetermined. If he is to be traded, though, a homecoming with the Columbus Blue Jackets and two other trade destinations make the most sense.
In case you missed it, a Flyers trade with the Ottawa Senators is reportedly close to being completed, though it is unclear if that trade will be finalized before, during, or after the 2024 NHL Draft.
NHL News
After knocking off Denver Barkey, Oliver Bonk, and the London Knights in the Memorial Cup Final, Montreal Canadiens prospect Owen Beck gave an exclusive interview to Montreal Hockey Now’s Marc Dumont, sharing his excitement for the upcoming season, discussing his junior career, and looking forward to what’s next for him and the Habs.
The Boston Bruins are running out of trade options for goaltender Linus Ullmark after the New Jersey Devils picked up Jacob Markstrom on Wednesday, and their best remaining avenue for Ullmark is Ottawa. But, do the Senators have the minerals to pony up for a goaltender of Ullmark’s caliber right now?
According to a report, it appears the Colorado Avalanche are already likely to move on from center Ross Colton who, despite having a strong season, could become an early salary cap casualty before his no-trade clause kicks in on July 1.
Speaking of Markstrom and the Devils, when was the last time we saw New Jersey boast at least a half-decent goaltending tandem? Markstrom and Jake Allen will deputize the crease in Newark for the immediate future, and the last time the Devils had better options than them, you’d have to go back to 2013.
That’s certainly not great for us , devils getting markstrom. Markstrom is a solid goalie
Fuck the Devils. They’ve been handed crazy talent and can’t even make the post season. That franchise is just a queef that should blow away in the wind.
Yeah you know your a disaster when you get as lucky as the Devils have and can’t even make it into the playoffs 😂🤣😅
Why woukd we want him right now? Doesn’t make sense to me. Saying Flyers got same deal, means we’re shipping a young player and paying him 4 mill. All while he’s declining, still playing pretty good but I just dont see why. We’re trying to look for our own future goalie, hopefully we already have him or better yet them in tge system. Zavarign, Kolosov, Bjarnson with Ersson and Fedotov playing tandem this year, and once tge years up we shoukd know if Ersson can truly be a number 1 or what same goes for fedotov, if he doesn’t cut it he gets traded or let go next year after his contract
Devils’ tandem Brodeur and Schwab were pretty good together.
We need to right our ship , I’m not as worried about Markstrom as I am about fielding a top team, he’s 34 going to be 35 during season, I personally don’t think he’s that big of a difference maker.
I would have loved Hart , Ersson duo next year , better than Markstrom , Allen
If flyers trade for #7 and don’t give up #12 what would be perfect scenario?
Dickinson & Helenius
Dickinson & Eiserman
Dickinson &Catton
Or Yakemchuk with 3 forwards
Or Parekh with Choice of 3 forwards ?
In my opinion? I’d say Helenius and Dickinson. I think those two have the highest potential out of those names to become complete NHLers who can legitimately win under pressure.
