Hard not to get excited about his dynamic puck skills, which are already NHL caliber in my opinion. Give him a year in the AHL, and I think he has an excellent shot at making the team in 15/16.
- MJL

Agreed. All I think he needs the AHL for is to have time to bulk up a little and get used to playing against bigger bodies. Everything else is already there.

It's really amazing how quickly his stock has risen. Almost unbelievable that he was taken in the 3rd round.

Preds sign Ryan Ellis, 5 years, $2.5mm AAV
- Jsaquella

That is a steal

It's just pre season so need to take that into consideration. But I was thinking the same thing. How did this kid make it to the 3rd round? I mean he is small, but he's not that small.

Is it safe to say Timonen will be replaced by Streit and Hartnell replaced by Lecavalier in the same umbrella formation.

Start the season in the A. Become the first call up. Waive Schultz at the end of the season.

Laughton and Leier have looked very impressive thus far. Both making good reads, playing with confidence and making things happen.

It's a good showing against the 1999 Eastern Conference All Star team NJ is icing tonight

No such thing as waivers at the end of the season. And Schultz is on a one year deal. He is a UFA after the season.

Likely. They look great together on the PK. Both showing a good ability to read plays and disrupt the flow

Games like this give you a temporary high. Every single player looks good. Probably some mirages out there, as the Devils seem non-competitive. But the Flyers definitely have some young talent out there. That kid Leier has some real heart and competitiveness. Also seems like he has good hockey sense and knows how to play without the puck.
