We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.
What This Means for You:
- If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
- If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
- Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.
- Our 2025 light and dark themes were lost, so we are rebuilding them. Light theme is currently available, but work in progress
Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.

Oh, God, can we please stop drafting J. O'Briens? It worked so well the first time...
O'Brien is pretty good, but we'll see if he's #7 good.
Honestly sounds like Jay O'Brien but plus a fake mustache.
"It's me, Jake O'Brien. No relation to Jay, who even is that?"

I'm more worried about Luchanko becoming Ty Dellandrea than Laughton

Deal all these extra picks for Hagens or Misa if you can get a team to accept.
That’s the talent level they need, and they sure as shit aren’t finding that when it’s put into the hands of their scouting department to comb through lesser players.
Briere has done jack shit so far.

I admit I like Jake O'Brien. I wouldn't have a problem if he were the Flyers pick. I'll take him over McQueen any day. That wonky back as an 18 year old should scare everyone.
We are 1-1 in our final 17 games. I hope we do bad enough to end at 7. Pittsburgh will probably be one pick ahead of us. Convince them, they don’t need a C. If we take a Swedish Lw/Rw as bpa, then I guess C with Colorado pick. I’m sure Brieres phone is gonna be busy, trying to find us an NHL ready C
agreed no o'briens or deynoyers... you just know it's going to be one of those two.. and probably caleb
I really hope we get a top 2 from the lottery. Misa and Schafer are the two players that I would take in that situation. The Flyers really need a top center, and I think Misa is the perfect fit. Schafer is a true number one defenseman and the Flyers need that too, but the need the center more. They can draft a PP 1 defenseman later and get by without a true number 1, but Michkov really needs a yin to his yang. I think Schafer and Misa are a whole tier above Hagens, who is terrific, but can’t be the complete center Misa is and can be. His size and reliance on passing give me pause. McQueen scares me after this lost year. Desnoyers I believe can be a true number one C, and I have no problem with the Flyers picking him if Schafer and Misa are gone. He is more of a sure thing than Hagens, although Hagens may have a higher upside.
At this point, O’Brien and Frondel are fall back players. If they pick 7-9 either player would be a good choice and I could see Frondell at 5.

I'd give for the top three, but I doubt it happens. If that's the case, I'm fine at 7 or 8. The Flyers are in a good spot to get a good player. Players also rise and fall, so it'll be interesting to see what happens from the combine. I'm also thinking some teams in the top 10 need defensemen in the worst kind of easy, so it won't surprise me if we see Jackson Smith and Radim Mrtka get in there. I'm also thinking that Frondell probably goes in the top 3 with his second half performance with Djurgardens. So, that should leave O'Brien and Desnoyers and someone else, which is probably McQueen.
I'm hopeful that the Flyers come out with two centers in the first. I'm pretty much resigned to the fact that they'll take a defenseman, but I wouldn't be upset if they took a left winger (Reshney or Murtagh).
