Chuck Fletcher has to add some talent to his roster this summer. If he wants his team to be back in the Playoffs next year, he will have no choice but to make some big moves.
Fortunately for him, there will be plenty of options on the trade market or in free agency. One name that has been around a lot lately is Kevin Fiala. He just had a 85 points campaign this year, and is set to become an RFA this summer.
The Minnesota Wild are in cap hell (the Zach Parise and Ryan Suter buyouts are really hurting as both players will have a combine cap hit of 12.7M$ next season) so they have no other choice but to let go some of their important players.
And according to multiple reports, the Flyers are one of the teams interested in the services of Fiala. The New Jersey Devils, the Ottawa Senators, the New York Islanders and the Anaheim Ducks are also in the race to acquire the 5 foot 10 forward.
What is the asking price? It's believed that the team that will acquire Fiala will have to give a first round pick and a top prospect.
