To match, or not to match, that is the question.
Well, there is one more, actually.
One possible result of the Shea Weber drama would involve a deal between the Nashville Predators and Philadelphia Flyers, in which the Preds would agree not to match the offer sheet, in exchange for trading some of the draft picks coming over from Philly in exchange for roster players. It’s a tricky situation, but not entirely unprecedented. Might it apply here?
Travis Hughes of Broad Street Hockey & I recenlty teamed up to talk through the scenarios involved in the latest SB Nation video:
Now that we’ve had a day or so to chew over the possibilities, I think it’s time we opened up the polls…
What do you think will happen with Shea Weber and the Flyer’s Offer Sheet?
| Nashville will match the offer and keep him | 516 |
| Nashville will not match, take the draft picks | 256 |
| Nashville will not match & work out trade for players from Philly | 538 |
