Can’t we just get some sleep? BREAKING: Braydon Coburn to #TBLightning for 1st-round pick, 3rd-round pick and Radko Gudas. — Chris Johnston (@reporterchris) March 2, 2015 We talked about it all day today. A trade was certainly a possibility, and plenty of teams had their eyes on Coburn after his long-time partner was shipped off…
It’s NHL trade deadline day, and while the league’s GMs have been busy for weeks and extremely busy in the days leading up to the deadline, there’s nothing like the excitement of this actual day. It might as well be a national holiday up in Canada, and both Sportsnet and TSN will have wall-to-wall coverage…
While you were sleeping, Ron Hextall started off the 2015 NHL trade deadline with a huge bang, sending the Philadelphia Flyers‘ longest-tenured player, Braydon Coburn, to the Tampa Bay Lightning in exchange for two draft picks and defenseman Radko Gudas. This was rumored for a while, and seemed like a guarantee after Coburn’s frequent, long-time…
Slava Voynov is a despicable human being who probably won’t play NHL hockey ever again, but according to Russian reporter Igor Eronko, the Flyers may have acquired him from the Los Angeles Kings.

Radko Gudas kind of feels like a throw in for the Flyers in the big Braydon Coburn trade that went down at 3 a.m. on NHL trade deadline day. He’s not playing for the rest of the season after undergoing knee surgery, but he’s signed through the end of next season at a very friendly…
As the trade deadline has come and gone, the Flyers have inevitably made some changes. Yes, we lost a beloved player in Kimmo Timonen, but more damaging to the team is the loss of Braydon Coburn. Not necessarily because of his hockey skills, but more for his ability to be Flyers fans scapegoat for literally…
What was your reaction to the trade? I found out in the middle of the night. I didn’t think I was going to get traded so I was totally in shock. But I’m excited to join a new organization and see how I do there. On playing with Jake Voracek: I’m excited to see him….
Most of the best defensemen on the NHL trade deadline market have now moved. Braydon Coburn and Kimmo Timonen were both good prizes from the Flyers blueline, and you can add Zbynek Michalek, Andrej Sekera, Jeff Petry and Keith Yandle to the list as well. It’s been a good deadline for the sellers, and that’s…
Just two deals for the Philadelphia Flyers at this 2015 NHL trade deadline, but it sure feels like more than that, as the two longest-tenured players on the team were each shipped out in different deals. The Flyers’ deadline deals Coburn to Lightning for picks, Radko Gudas Travis Hughes •Broad Street Hockey So long, Braydon…
On how/when he heard about the trade: I didn’t get the call. Kinda glad I didn’t… I wouldn’t have gotten much sleep. My wife got up at 6:30 to check on our son, and took a look at her phone and it was blowing up. And she told me it’s time to wake up. Not…
