Elliotte Friedman Reveals Two Trades Chuck Fletcher Pulled Out of

Elliotte Friedman has recently disclosed details about the Flyers' trade deadline plans, shedding light on a regrettable move by Chuck Fletcher. In one of the revelations, it became apparent that Fletcher made a questionable decision.

According to reports, the New York Rangers had made their top prospect, Vitali Kravtsov, available for trade. Surprisingly, the Vancouver Canucks managed to acquire Kravtsov for a relatively low cost, involving mid-level prospect Will Lockwood and a seventh-round pick.

The Rangers were eager to move Kravtsov in order to create salary cap space, with hopes of potentially acquiring Patrick Kane. Astonishingly, Chuck Fletcher pulled out of the deal, leaving many puzzled.

In addition, Friedman disclosed that Fletcher was involved in a second trade discussion concerning Denis Gurianov. There was even an opportunity for Fletcher to offload James Van Riemsdyk's contract, but he failed to do so. Regrettably, Fletcher withdrew from the potential trade, and it was eventually completed with other parties involved.


Looking back, it is evident that Chuck Fletcher's decision-making during the trade deadline was highly criticized. Elliotte Friedman's tweet shed light on these disappointing moves by the Flyers' management.
