Caleb Kerney of The Hockey News has suggested a potential trade scenario in which the Oilers would send goaltender Stuart Skinner, along with a first-round pick, a second-round pick, one or two top prospects, and a roster player to the Flyers in exchange for Hart.

This proposed deal reflects the Oilers' strong interest in securing a young and promising netminder.

For the Flyers, considering a trade involving Hart is part of their strategic approach to rebuilding their team's foundation.

While Hart has proven himself as a valuable asset, leveraging his market value in a trade could provide the Flyers with the opportunity to acquire assets that will aid in shaping their future.

The outcome of these trade talks will undoubtedly have a significant impact on the fortunes and aspirations of both the Flyers and the Oilers in the NHL.
