Flyers Loom as Perfect Fit for Islanders’ Star Forward

The Flyers keep showing up in the kind of rumor that tells you a front office is doing the math before everyone else does. A star Islanders forward landing in Philadelphia makes plenty of sense on paper, but in this league, “makes sense” and “gets done” are usually separated by a few million dollars and a stubborn GM. The fit is obvious enough that people around the market are already circling it, which usually means the real work is happening behind closed doors.
