Laughton’s name is front and center when it comes to players who could be moved, with Winnipeg and Toronto among potential landing spots.

NHL trade deadline has proven one thing: it’s a seller’s market. Let’s recap the moves so far: It started with the Ryan Lindgren trade. In exchange for Lindgren, the New York Rangers received a 2025 second—and fourth-round pick.

Also possibly working in the Flyers' favor in any talks is that Laughton is under contract for next season at a cap hit of $3 million. If a deal were to get done, he wouldn't be a rental for any team making a bid.

Scott Laughton is trying not to keep too close an eye on trade rumors as the deadline approaches. Laughton’s even trying to have some fun with it, posting a “Last Supper” recreation in Winnipeg on what could have been his last road trip with the Flyers.

That would be the league trading deadline looming at 3 p.m. this Thursday. For Flyers coach John Tortorella, that means it’s time for an annual coach to player (s) talk. He says the pending trade deadline is something to address with his team.

So, if the Philadelphia Flyers have a quiet trade deadline, would anyone be surprised? No. For as sought after as Scott Laughton appears to be, Daniel Briere never has been in a hurry to make a move.
