He almost had a between the legs goal but wound up getting the assist. That would have been priceless....
Flyers 1st round picks have been more miss than hit -- Frost, Farabee, O'brien, Patrick....

Frost and Farabee were hits. Frost is 16th in scoring from his draft (drafted 27th) and Farabee is 7th in scoring from his draft (drafted 14th).

Both of them are pretty much what was expected though, at that range. It’s the Flyers own scouting issues if they thought they were something else.

Exactly. To extend the metaphor, sure, a grand slam is a hit, but so is a single, and Frostabee are at the very least that.

Ahhh so you don't understand how to value middle and late 1st round picks properly got it.

While I'm at it, let's play the hindsight game with Frost. Who do you take over Frost, 100% of the time, with the benefit of hindsight? Setting aside people with similar results, but where you might prefer them stylistically, the only people I see who are definitively and obviously better picks who weren't already off the board are Robertson, Ferraro, Swayman, and Batherson. Tolvanen, Geekie, and Luostarinen, you could potentially prefer for stylistic reasons. Maybe a couple other defensemen, but we're talking at most 10-15 names who might, potentially, be a more rational pick with the full benefit of hindsight.
Farabee, I thought there was going to be more meat on the bone there since he went higher, but real talk, in hindsight 2018 sucked. Who's obviously better that was still on the board? K'Andre Miller, maybe? Perhaps you like Sean Durzi? Bee's new teammate Sharangovich? I'm not really looking at Flyer picks here, but the correct answer might just be Ersson. Seriously, that draft was butts once you got past Dobson at 12.

If so, then we could change the my original ascertion from bad drafting to bad trading....
Gauthier for Drysdale
Frost & Farabee for aging UFA and a nothing prospect
Either way it is a very bad look for the Flyers..
Next, we will look at contracts.....

Tbf Frost has become more than would generally expect from the average pick in that range!

Laughton too, for where he was taken. I don't like seeing him called a bust. He's definitely not a bust, for everything else the Flyers do wrong with him.
