P.S. What's 'Foppa' mean?
And you think a team is willing to risk it? Which team has the cap room AND the expendable prospects to make such a deal?

Philly is rebuilding now, or they should be. They should take what they can get if they are certain about trading Peter at all. That may amount to just a 3rd rounder with thanks to the cap hit and long term risk on the investment in Forsberg.
