This was the proposed trade but I'd much rather have Provorov.

they send the 10th and 40th pick and a 3rd round pick in 2016 to Philly for Nick Grossmann and the 7th pick

I'd make that trade if they ended up with Rantanen

If that happened I might consider Timo Meier at 10

USA down 2-0 in the second against superpower Belarus.

Belarus is no joke. Just ask Tommy Salo.

he'll go to chicago or ny. they take all the players the flyers want anyway.
- hammarby31

Hopefully he would see the chance for more playing time and responsibility in Philly than in NY or Chicago.

I would, too. But only if he can play LW.

You like Meier over Rantanen?

I haven't been watching, but how has Eichel looked?

No but I don't have them that far apart either

Sure why not let's bring Nikita Zaitsev on board. He could serve as a mentor to Ivan Provorov.

I think this is another example of the Flyers have been drafting at a position of need since 2013. The Flyers as seen on the roster are that thin on the blueline. Before we drafted Samuel Morin, we had next to nothing to look forward to or even talk about when it came to defensive prospects. It's amazing what has happened in just two years.

I'm guessing at 18 years old, he's young enough to learn new tricks and make the adjustment if needed.

Just a question:

If your proposed top-10, say the Flyers don't trade the #7 pick and Crouse is there. Do you think the Flyers also feel they're primed for a return to the playoffs and pick the "most NHL-ready player" there?

God I hope not.

No but I don't have them that far apart either
- ob18

Yup me too. I have the 2 of them plus Crouse and Zacha all pretty close

He's the guy in the top-15 that worries me the most.... can't shake the image of Taylor Pyatt.

My guess is, if they stay at 7, it will be Provorov if he's on the board. If not could be Barzal, Rantanen or the dreaded Crouse.

Why do you dislike Crouse?

If Crouse is the guy, I think people will be pleasantly surprised. He skates very well for a big guy.

I'd carry him to the podium

I don't, I was teasing those who do.

Yeah, seems to do a lot of skating up the wing and wristing it from 30-feet out.
