Philadelphia Flyers NHL trade rumors analysis involving Robert Thomas and Shane Wright

Robert Thomas of the St. Louis Blues has become an interesting possible target because he can make plays and play well on both ends of the ice, and Thomas is only 26 years old and signed for a long time, so he could quickly become a stable top-line center and fit into Philadelphia's competitive timeline, however, getting a player of his level would probably require a big trade package, which would make negotiations difficult.

On the other hand, Shane Wright of the Seattle Kraken is a player with a lot of potential who could help a team grow over time. Wright hasn't fully established himself as a star yet, but his potential for growth and past offensive flashes make him an interesting candidate for a change of scenery.
