So someone has likely brought this up before and I'm not having an original thought, but this popped into my brain the other day.
The Flyers have traded back in the first round twice in recent memory: 2019 and 2024.
The first time they had Boldy fall to their slot at 11 and, rather than select him, they traded back to 14. They traded with Arizona and would likely have known who was being picked as they wouldn't want to trade back and lose their guy. After Arizona picked Soderstrom, Minnesota had the next pick and selected Boldy.
Fast forward to 2024 - Zeev Buium falls to the Flyers at 12. The Flyers opt to trade back to allow Minnesota to pick 12th, yet again handing over the BPA to Minnesota.
What team did Flahr used to work for? Or is maybe still covertly working for as a double agent??!
COINCIDENCE?!?!?!?
