Think Jackson Smith should be in there too.

 

[BillDineen]

So Ryabkin is fat and entitled? I wonder if the Flyers pass on him if available

Edit. He can do this though:

Just the Twitter clips in here. Maybe in 6 months.

Hopefully it looks better by then

It usually looks worse the more it goes on. That's what makes all of this team's takes about this draft hilarious.

Ryabkin and Desnoyers not on top 21 ?? These 2 are probably gonna be philly's targets considering this front office's ineptitude to try to get to the top of the draft.

Ryabkin, Frondell, Desnoyers in that order for me.

I know Ryabkin has some question marks right now, but his skill pops the most of these 3 for me.

He never cares about consensus, just goes with what he sees and his data.

I’ve got it Frondell, Ryabkin, Desnoyers right now and I have no confidence. Ryabkins production is a red flag, can’t ignore it. Only reason He’s not outside my top 20 is because there’s even more 1st round quality guys that are struggling to score.

 

[FlyerNutter]

It weird that I’d take a shot at Schaefer instead of one of the centres?

Depends which centers you're talking about. Misa seems like the kinda guy you always love.

Where's the official BigToe Swedish prospect ranking early season update version 1.0?

thanks

Eklund is the only one I love and I'm lower on his upside than most I think. This is my top 15 right now but it changes often.

1 Hagens

2 Martone
3 Misa

4 Schaefer
5 Smith
6 Eklund

7 Schmidt
8 Bear
9 Cootes
10 Frondell
11 Spence
12 O'Brien
13 McQueen
14 Lakovic
15 Potter

Ryabkin

Curious what you guys would draft in the first round if all positions at our slot were equal talents. I’m thinking C,D,C

That's it for the first two rounds, unless a winger is clearly BPA, it's centers and D-men all the way down.

Flyers have 6 young wings on the big team, plus some more in the system.
They have goalies galore, though probably take one every year in 3rd to 5th rounds.

 

[BigToe]

Carter Amico out for the year. #22 on EPs list.

 

[Nabrules]

Brady Martin and Jake O'Brien are 2 centres we should keep an eye on in the 10-15 range which is most likely where our pick will land

Reaching for J O'Brien should be the target. No chance that doesn't work out. It's foolproof.

I've heard this story. It doesn't end well.

 

[BigToe]

The guy at EP that mainly covers the Russians doesn’t even have Ryabkin as the first ranked Russian right now.
