Remember when we passed on Caufield?

Good times, good times.

Everyone here is more okay with Leonard than I am. This worries me.

We've just moved quicker to the acceptance stage of grief than you have.

Michkov and Leonard going top 6, leaving the Flyers racing to the podium for Dvorsky, with Benson on the board, is actually my worst case. However skeptical I am of Leonard (and Cuttah) not just being a good complementary top 6ish guy, and the long-term vision of having a contending forward core flying out the window, there are real plus traits there. Dvorsky is plain oatmeal. But, hey, he's a center with some size so. Also, don't overvalue the u18s, Flahrsy said!

When I watched some Dvorsky, it looks like Draisaitl, if Draisaitl sucked kinda.

Just wait until Anaheim trolls the f*** out of everyone by taking MM at #2.

“I think it’ll be Michkov but I dunno why lol”

I'm quickly gathering who to root against and I'll be ready to do so tonight if I'm not asleep

 

[GKJ]

Be prepared to hear about how Leonard reminds everyone of Matthew Tkachuk for all eternity when we draft him

Hoping for Leonard. I think Michkov slides to 9 or 10.

I love when things about the same team comes out from multiple different people at the same time. Hellllllo being fed information.

 

[Striiker]

Prediction:

Sanheim gets traded during the draft to the Leafs for 28th overall and some junk.

Then 28 and 22 are used to trade up.

I end the day mad.

And they use the pick on f***ing Bonk.

 

[Striiker]

And they use the pick on f***ing Bonk.

I’d rather f***ing die than listen to Jim Jackson make Bonk jokes for the next decade.

 

[LegionOfGloom]

In his article on the Flyers options at 7, O'Connor said he would have a piece on options at 22 later in the week. Oh well, guess that Hayes blockbuster took everything out of him. Between this and ASF having to watch a Phillies game while texting about the Flyers, our reporters are at the absolute brink of exhaustion.

The draft tonight:

Found Dot's Pretzels near me. Grabbed a bag of the original, and trying this Southwest flavor too.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Get reporters wasted, smart business.

 

[Jtown]

My FANDOM is on life-support and Im about to pull the plug.....Michkov or M'OUT

I am in this boat as well. We need something to f***ing get excited about.

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

Cuttah

 

[BiggE]

Started drinking early, might as well numb the upcoming pain.

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

Hoping for Leonard. I think Michkov slides to 9 or 10.

How could the Caps ever pass on him?

Found Dot's Pretzels near me. Grabbed a bag of the original, and trying this Southwest flavor too.

The original taste like pure butter and garlic.

They’re dangerous.

 

[ajgoal]

If we take a defensemen or another Tippett/Gauthier-type big boy, I’m jumping.

 

[RANKKA]

you cant pass on him

 

[ChaosLord]

Hoping for Leonard. I think Michkov slides to 9 or 10.

If he slides past the Flyers the Caps want him desperately.
