The Philadelphia Flyers are splitting up with one of their longest-tenured players.

The Flyers have traded centre Scott Laughton to the Toronto Maple Leafs for forward Nikita Grebenkin and a first-rounder.

Toronto will also receive a fourth- and a sixth-rounder in the deal, while the Flyers will retain 50 per cent of Laughton's contract.

. . .

Laughton, 30, has spent his entire 12-year career with the Flyers. Only captain Sean Couturier has been with the team longer.

He has 11 goals and 16 assists in 60 games this season. He also has 33 blocked shots and 129 hits while playing an average of 15:06 of ice time, mainly centring the Flyers' second line.

That's a high price - but I think this is the year to do such trades.

I think it's fair considering the cap hit we saved.
