I'm hoping at the end of the night we have Trevor Zegras. I would trade Laughton and 32, I think that would get it done. I think he's the perfect young center for Michkov and he already has a couple friends on the Flyers team.
Silayev still sitting there. Chernyshov, Hage, Dickinson, Brandsegg-Nygard, or Helenius would be a good pick. Someone will be there. Catton just went to the Kraken.
As long as defenders donāt go 10 and 11 i think the flyers can get one of the top defenders here
Dang it, Calgary and New Jersey spoiled the night with good picks
What about Zeev Buium here?
Briereās on the phone.
This is taking so long Iām expecting the jaguars to jump in and draft Byron leftwich
Flyers swap with MinnesotaTrade 12 for 13 and a 2025 3rdI donāt like this, Minnesota took the best player available, zeev Buium, i think the flyers should have taken him.
Weāve got York and Drysdale who are in the same mold.
I would have taken the best player here and traded one of the d-men down the road, heās in a different tier. Third round picks are not that valuable
Jett Luchanko
Interesting. Iāve seen some mocks with him going to us at 31. Hopefully not a reach.
Could have traded back again and still gotten him - looks like they had their heart set on a center
Canāt believe I paid attention to this draft with a reach like that.
Helenius ranked way higher on EVERY board except the Flyers. Feels like a classic reach from a hapless organization. I hope I am wrong.
Yea, I like the player, but most mocks have him going 20-25. Maybe they liked him and believed someone else was going to take him, but it will be regarded as a reach.
Feels like Jay OāBrien Part 2. We make a 10-15 pick reach and all the announcers tell us that the organization that hasnāt won a cup in 50 years is being smart
There are more than a few experts that have him ranked around 20.
looks flyers look like they traded 32..traded to Edmonton for a 1st in 25 or 26.
Huh?
So the Giroux pick still hasnāt been made. I guess they didnāt have any player they liked enough there and they are banking on the Oilers pick being higher than 32 next year or in 2026.
2025 draft is regarded as being much deeper than this draft. Flyers now looking at three 1s, two 2s and two 3s next year.
They have a plan - thinking long term - and are sticking to it. Pretty sure that is a good thing.
