    Flyers Alternate Captain Linked to Avalanche

    The Flyers have pieces to sell as the Avalanche have shown interest.

    The Philadelphia Flyers are not wavering in their asking price for Scott Laughton, and rightfully so. He has been a great player for the team to have and play up and down the lineup for a number of years now. He is really a do-it-all type of player that has two years left on his very attractive $3 million AAV deal after this season.

    A number of teams have been in contact at times with the Flyers about Laughton and while the team is past a rebuild and into a retooling phase, bringing back a first-round pick for the 29-year-old would be a great help. While teams pay a first rounder for rentals, this price to go along with the cap hit and term is something I'm surprised more teams aren't calling about.

    One team in particular that has been linked to Laughton is the Colorado Avalanche, per David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period. This team is without Gabriel Landeskog and Valeri Nichushkin for the time being and could still use the help up front regarding their depth.

    The Avalanche made some adjustments in the offseason, but performances and players being out of the lineup has caused the same outcome. A lack of depth ended the season for the Avalanche early in 2022-23 and they aren't about to have that happen again. The way in which Laughton plays the game with his versatility would make a huge impact in Colorado's lineup. Since they are Stanley Cup contenders and expect to be for many more years, Laughton can be a part of three playoff runs while under his current contract.

    I don't think that the Flyers will have a tough time finding a trade partner for Laughton closer to the deadline. They seem to be keeping the door open for themselves this season and for more teams to enter the conversation.
