2024-25 Roster Thread #1: The Beginninging

Yet if they had a bunch of big poor skating defenseman with zero offensive upside that would have not stopped them from drafting another one.
Can’t have too many smallish defenseman who can move the puck.
Flyers hockey

They've picked them up cheap, Seeler SFA, McDonald 6th rd, Sotheran 5th rd.

These are good bets in later rounds if they can skate, bet on a big guy with a frame that can fill out who might become a decent puck handler.

Risto was supposed to be a two way D-man, oh well.
Morin at #11, even if his knee was fine, he couldn't puck handle well enough to be a top 4 guy.

Teams rarely have more than 2-3 offensively skilled D-men who can move the puck.
Even Colorado traded a 2nd rd pick and a young D-man (Helleson) for Manson (6-3 218).
What you don't want to do is take one dimensional muckers at the top of the draft.

Because otherwise other teams would push us around. You think MM gets butt ended yesterday and their HW almost kills Couts, no way any of that happens with Dee Loser in the lineup !

umm is anyone gunna tell him.
