Latest On Philadelphia Flyers’ Trade Deadline Targets

March 5, 2022 at 8:45 pm CDT | by John Gilroy 9 Comments

Earlier this evening on Hockey Night in Canada, Jeff Marek noted that several high-profile Philadelphia Flyers’ front office members, including Chuck Fletcher, Daniel Briere, Dean Lombardi, and Bill Barber had attended the Lehigh Valley Phantoms game against the Charlotte Checkers, the AHL affiliate of the Florida Panthers (link). Marek said:

We’ve talked before about how Claude Giroux may end up at the end of all of this, as a Florida Panther. Who are they there to see? We believe it is Owen Tippett, and we’ve talked before, Ron, about how Owen Tippett’s name is very much out there and how the Florida Panthers have let it be known that he could be available.

While Giroux to the Panthers has certainly been discussed before, and Tippett as a potential return is not news either, it is of note that a sizable contingent of the Flyers’ front office has gone to see Tippett play in person.

Tippett has been up and down for the Panthers this season, most recently having been sent down to Charlotte on February 22nd. While Tippett has not yet lived up to the potential the Panthers saw when they drafted him 10th overall in 2017, he has shown promise as of late. The 23-year-old winger has just 14 points in 42 games in the NHL this year, but he does have 10 points in eight games with Charlotte this season. Perhaps a change of scenery and an increased role with another team such as the Flyers could benefit Tippett and spark his development.

      He certainly hasn’t lived up to a Top Ten draft pedigree, but let’s get a grip here: this is a fellow who hasn’t yet played 100 professional games, and hasn’t had a lot of ice time when he’s dressed. We can all think of players who weren’t performing to the future NHL star level after a hundred professional games. (That Briere fellow, for one, a future All-Star who at Tippett’s age had been mostly a minor-leaguer here in Springfield.)

      Tippett could be had cheaply, one figures, and at the level worst, he’s producing third-line points.

      For whichever team wants Giroux to take fletch and homer. This is ridiculous

    Owen, a first, and possibly a pick swap down the road that gives Philly a round or two in, say, 2024? too much with salery retention?

    Tippett being another bust doesn’t add anything to a team full of busts that can’t develop talent.

      Yeah, not sure I really trust the Flyers to maximize young talent. We’re on, what, attempt number four or five to ‘shake up the core’ and get this team ‘to the next level?’
