Seriously, Freij, please Flyers, take Freij if he's there.

Don’t set yourself up, bb. It’s not happening.

 

[MrGuyPerson]

Hemming gone too. I can't wait to see the scrub Canadian Danny B thinks is great value

 

[JABEE]

Other teams take BPA. Danny reaches for a Center because they bungled Cutter Gauthier.

No team compounds their own mistakes more than the Flyers. It's why they try to extend every player they trade for (Ristolainen and Macdonald).

 

[Strawberry Fields]

Freij will look nice in a Canes or Avs jersey in a few years.

Was just thinking, didn’t we interview Tulsky, but hired Fletcher? Good grief

We interviewed Zito, too

 

[Curufinwe]

What if they didn’t take Buium because their gimmick took precedence and Buffer wouldn’t be able to pronounce the name?

One bullet dodged.

Don’t set yourself up, bb. It’s not happening.

They passed on a top 5 player in the class and the most skilled defender at #12. The idea of them having an epiphany and taking a skilled LHD at #32 feels like the punchline of a sick joke.

There’s so many bullets left though

 

[tictactoe]

NY will pick Emery..

Save one for me?

Luchanko was a late riser with lots of good pub from the scouts and some (Jason Bukala) even had him top 12 but the thought they'd pass on Zeev for him is ridiculous.... Thats my issue.... hopefully the kid who's an excellent skater, good playmaker with high compete level according to the scouts ends up being better than we imagined....doubt it but there is some hope he can be a solid top 3/6 C

 

[Curufinwe]

During the draft is when we used to get cool things to happen, but now no one does anything but just make picks.

And they can’t blame the low cap anymore. It’s $88 million

I know lol. I was going to post to shake up the juju but deleted it.

Good news: No.
Bad news: It was considered when they hired Briere and didn’t because they thought Tortorella would run him over.

 

[phil162888]

Basha, Howe and the Russians sound interesting

 

[bennysflyers16]

He will trade back to fool the authentics that he is stock piling and rebuilding

 

[Curufinwe]

Briere pre draft: “if it’s close, we might target a center if possible”

 

[Magua]

I'm mixed on Artamanov. I don't think he's as skilled as the production looks. Feels kinda like a smaller Brandsegg-Nygård. Lot of pace and high motor. Some skill, but I'm just seeing a floor.

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Briere pre draft: “if it’s close, we may target a center”

"Wait, where did Helenius go?"

 

[Magua]

"Wait, where did Helenius go?"

I think Helenius and Luchanko are pretty similar in tools and style if you cut through the hype. It's both a compliment and criticism. I'd feel no different.

 

[bennysflyers16]

When do we know if we gets the jackets pick ?

 

[flyers0909]

Huge news

 

[ponder719]

When do we know if we gets the jackets pick ?

Smart-ass answer is when they tell us.

They have up to 1 hour after the final pick of the first round to do so.
