My way-too-early keys to the #Flyers offseason:

1. Find a new RD partner for Provorov. I'd bump Niskanen down to the 3RD spot to partner with Ghost, in Braun's old spot. New guy can't have a NMC, must consider the expansion draft in any D move, because they must protect...
...Provorov, Sanheim and Myers. A guy like TJ Brodie would fit the bill, but they'll need to unload some salary first (JvR being the top candidate).

2. Figure out the Nolan Patrick and Morgan Frost situation. Both need to be playing in the NHL and both need to be in the top 9...
...there currently isn't room for both in the Flyers top-9, unless one plays wing. Might need to move one (either to get the RD, or unload a contract).

3. I wouldn't re-sign any of the UFAs (that includes Pitlick). I love Pitlick's game, but I don't see him as any better than...
...a 4th liner, and the Flyers already have NAK (with Kase as a back-up). The rest are self-explanatory.

Giroux/Couturier/Konecny
Farabee/Hayes/Voracek
Lindblom/Frost/Raffl
Laughton/Bunnaman/NAK

Provorov/Brodie
Sanheim/Myers
Ghost/Niskanen

Hart/Talbot
Also, fix the damn powerplay.
