As far as Domi, I don't think he's knocked off the puck that easy. Even though he lead London in points at times he needs to shoot me and be selfish.

that was russ cohen concerned whether it'll be an issue at the nxt level. if he's already built a little like his father, i'd think he'd be fine. of course, i barely know jack about these guys

Gustafsson one period away from playing entire tourney without being out for a single opposing even-strength goal. Considering all the ice time he's logged, that would be a tremendous accomplishment.

undrafted and never previously invited to play for sweden, what a great accomplishment for him

I'd think of him in the mold of a Brad Marchand might be a better scorer though.

is he right in the mix as a flyer pick if they stay put @ 11?

I'd take Bo Horvat over him at #11 if they went forward at that spot.

Some may not like it but Mike Richards is comparable

A bit of disappointing that he wasn't named one of Sweden's all-tournament players considering what he's meant to the team, plus the fact that the Sedins were not even there for the beginning. Obviously Enroth deserved the other star.

considering we draft that type of plyr well, it's not the worst idea and would free up some trade options now or down the road. projected better than laughton?

First Schenn, then Laughton and now Hovart? HE WAS BORN TO BE FLYER

It's not mine but you can see a similar style in their play. So it's not likely to stop anytime soon.

I'd think it's pretty similar to Laughton maybe a bit more offensive skill.

its legit said about at least 4-5 players per draft

any forward with any semblance of a defensive game or captain-like qualities is deemed Mike Richards version 436375

You'll hear it all day long during the draft & most of them are unfair comparisons.

more of a lazy comparison than unfair in most cases, imo

Cmon crims.

Be real.

We're actually on version 3.6.8 right now

I think many are unfair as it gets some peoples expectations up too far & if they don't reach they go crazy over it.

well the same can be said for any time a prospect is compared to an nhl player

It's because Ryan Callahan pissed in their cornflakes

If Edler is truly going to be available. The Flyers have to make every effort within reason to make it happen. He's exactly what they need.
