Wait.

Jagger Firkus went to the KRAKEN?!?

This draft literally could not have gone worse

They took Wright one pick before us and Jagger one pick before the Ghost pick

It could be worse. He could've wound up here

Definitely no larger years-long trend indicating the Flyers are unduly fascinated with pursuing locals.

But you do have to appreciate the incompetent hilarity of their best 2 picks of the last 2 years probably being the 7th and 3rd round locals.

If you want to throw up in your mouth a little.



I knew he wouldn't mention Kaplan's playmaking.

 

[Strawberry Fields]

The Caps drafted numerous players I may or may not get to see play in Hershey in a few years so there's always that

I really, truly, from the bottom of my heart, hate that fat f***ing egg.

I don't know how I just learned this -- possibly he's so grotesque I prefer to not think about him -- but Fletcher and Flahr's relationship goes back to 1996, where Flahr was a scout for the Panthers right after graduating from Princeton (boy, our general managers are so smart). His first job at 22 years old was under Fletcher. In his 26 years in the NHL, 22 have been with Fletcher. And 2 of those years apart were just sticking around an extra year after Fletcher left Florida and then Anaheim. Are there a bigger set of bosom buddies in the NHL than these two? Awooga.

Magua, don't do this to yourself

We need a chart to explain what he wrote.

HC, don't do this to me

HC, don't do this to me

I don’t want to live in a world where DP doesn’t want to do charts. The Flyers have gone too far this time.

You're so kind

Drafts are like New Years. Full of optimism, excitement for potential and what could be. When I saw that interview, I saw nothing like that. It was like hew was describing the newest TPS report to his manager.

Probably can shut this one down now.
