Outside of a small number of D I'd take mainly forwards and the possibility of 3 goalies.

Peter Mueller lead the Swiss league in goals last year.

Always loved the talent, but so many injury issues. Rumors have it he may be looking to return to the NHL.

You know what this is actually a decent idea. Like signing T.J Brennan good. Elite prospects has him as a winger, but most sites have him as a center. He would come cheap, motivated and does have amazing hands. 6.2, he would definitely help in the shoot out and may even be healthy. I say do it and hope for chemistry with Giroux and Voracek. Sign him for a year and hope he isn't a Zherdev.

If any goes in round 1 it's Demko

I don't think we'd take him so I have 3 other goalies in mind.

The goalies I'd look at are

Logan Halladay (Minnesota commit)
Ville Husso (HIFK in the Finnish league)
Brandon Halverson (Sault Ste. Marie, OHL)

On D outside of

Ekblad
Fleury
Honka
Sanheim
DeAngelo
Mayo

It seems to me in my studying for the draft a lot of scouting reports for "stay at home" D.

If the Flyers want to grab a D in round 1 for it's either Honka (if he even lasts that long) or Sanheim.

There is always a prospect who starts to slide in the first round, it will be interesting to see whom. Do you like Sanheim?

Left winger with TONS of skill. Would love for the Flyers to draft him.
Thoughts Bill? Ob?

Yes I do, not saying they'd grab him but he's along the lines of what I think they need on the back end.

He didn't make my top 10 (of who I'd go with at #17) but he wasn't easy to leave off it either,

So what you're saying is McKeown.

Nope, maybe in round 2 if he fell that far.

30 teams will be kicking themselves in three years if he does.

Fair enough. I just feel like the Flyers could really use some skill on the wing in the system especially a LW. From what I hear this guy has skill in spades. Don't know much about his defensive game tho. Plus his name alone is enough for me to want him

If they go forward in round 1, I'd hope Dysin Mayo is available for us in round 2

He's my guy. I would also be happy with Kapanen. If he plays with even half the heart that his father played with he will be a very solid player

He is an interesting player for sure. I prefer players who trail the rush instead of lead it, and I think he has more question marks playing behind Reinhart, but I wouldn't mind it. Still, McKeown is my round one pick.
