Who believes the Flyers already have a deal done and it will be announced at the draft?

Giroux for rights to Ott

BAM!
- jmatchett383

I really like Ott and think he fits this team, but I wouldn't give up Giroux.

Is there going to be a HockeyBuzz meetup tonight?

Nope.

Honestly, I love it. Yes I would have preferred Wiggins/Parker, maybe even Exum but in the NBA you can't win without a franchise player. Embiid was one of the few guys who has the potential to be one. In the NBA, you're either a top-4 contender or stuck in purgatory. I'm glad they committed to a direction. Also, Saric is a really talented player and getting back the 1st round pick the 76ers owed Magic in that deal is huge for future moves. I'm happy with their draft

Edit: Now it's time for me to be equally happy about the Flyers draft!

Ek does. It wouldn't surprise me.

Just putting the thought out there of multiple deals being announced at the start of the draft will get people tuning in.

You think we are one of the teams with a good offer for the 1st pick
- griouxmvp2012

I don't know. I don't think so due to what others could probably offer. I think we might get into top ten if there is someone they really want and think he will be there? Hextall already said after ten there is a drop. But i don't know. Just have to hope Hextall follows his plan

Okay. Voracek and a 1st

You know what potential gets coaches?


Fired

I understand what the sixers are doing. the whole NBA system is just flawed I think

Do you think they make any deals??
- GOA88

If they do, I'm not expecting much to come back to the Flyers.

And I don't think they are going to move up, either.

The speculation I'm reading is written by writers who didn't know a thing about Hartnell getting moved; what makes me think they got the finger on the pulse of the Flyers right now?

And for future reference, when both of my predictions are wrong, I enjoy my crow with maple syrup.

As I've said before the following are guaranteed to happen at the draft tonight:

Bettman is booed. Loudly and often. He deserves it.

Maguire goes on and on about the how wonderful each and every draft pick is. He then informs us of where they went to preschool and the age at which they were potty trained. Finally he lets us all know how excited each kid is to finally meet Sidney Crosby

Someone gets traded to somewhere else. This likely happens more than once.

Each GM goes on and on about how they are so very fortunate to get JUST THE GUY THEY WANT with their pick.

At least 75% of teams will go on to trade JUST THE GUY THEY WANT within the next few years.

I will drink, a lot, during this dog and pony show.

Coots and or Simmonds

Although Ek has had us trading for Byfuglien since the Carter administration.

No chance of either going.

I think it went all the way back to the Primeau administration.
