If Friedman is right and #12, #32 and Avs pick was "too much" for Briere...

well Briere is driving a hard bargain.

As that is a very fair trade vs league value and likely player outcome. Flyers take on more "risk" but higher chance of a star.

There is a trade to be made here, if this is the case. 12/32/Avs pick I’m in, contingent on Demidov being there.

Maybe CBJ settles for their 2nd rd pick returned instead of Avs pick

I doubt CBJ would as unless no-one in their FO can do maths then 12+32+51 for 4 is likely to end up favouring the Flyers.

At least with 12+32+~25-32? Blue Jackets get probably slightly more chance of a higher number of NHL games played... but less chance of a star. Evening it out.

I meant CBJ’s 2nd rd pick which the flyers are owed this year or next, not 51

I’m not moving up to 4 to draft a winger. It’s either to get a no doubt about it 1C or 1D. Demidov might be an absolute stud, but I’m not seeing him as this can’t miss superstar.
No such thing as a sure fire 1C or 1D unless it’s a generational type of prospect

Where is Demidov projected to go now? Is it possible that he slips out of the top 5?

I am a little taken aback by just how many people around here would prefer to include Farabee than the Colorado 1st. I admit I did not see that one coming.
Farabee is getting traded because the coach doesn't like him. It has nothing to do with his play or his contract.

Doubtful. I said it in the previous thread, but I will reiterate it here. Grant McCagg says a lot of stuff(Lots of Michkov Slander since the 23 draft), but despite that there is 1 thing Grant is typically extremely accurate with...and that is the Habs. In a class with no concensus Grant mocked them taking Slaf. Last year despite fans begging for Michkov Grant mocked them to take Rein(insert the correct spelling here)er. I'm pretty sure he used to be employed by them and probably still knows a bunch of guys working for them. If Grant McCagg is saying the habs will take Demidov if available, It is safe to assume that Montreal will do so

I'd even make that trade for Buium if he was there at 4. 12, 32, Col 1st (and Laughton if that's who they want, but not Farabee).

They should be open to moving Florida and Colorados picks bc they can easilly replace one of them in a Laughton deal.

Trade 12, 32, and Col 1st for 4. Maybe play the sympathy card n get them to take Atkinson too.

Then trade Laughton for a 2025 1st and TK to buffalo in a seal that gets you 11.

Buffalo traded their 11OA to SJ. I also think TK alone is worth 7 OA

12, 32, and the Colorado first is acceptable.

All pending who the roster player is. If that’s Farabee, that’s potentially another first rounder from a playoff team come the deadline in ‘25.

Not so thrilled about that.

If be interested if they asked about Jiricek, thought I read he may be unhappy there. Would be curious what the ask would be to expand the offer - assume it’s the Flyers own ‘25 first round pick.

Sounds like its either he goes 2 or 5 depending on what Chicago does he could slide down to Montreal
All signs are that he's not going to Chicago. Multiple people have said the draft starts a 4 right now.

As Jojo said Hawks are out, Its Levshunov from all indications at #2 (Big disappointment that is choice Hawks have made)

Duck speculation is all over the place (Silayev, Buium, Sennecke, etc) but generally is that Demidov is not guy

So Blue Jackets are in prime spot to trade down for haul if they wish

Will the flyers actually select the 36th this year? Legit question. I’ve been so out of the loop
