To me, every year, there is a guessing game based around all but a few picks. I mean, Ekblad probably surpassed his projections, and Zach Bogosian hasn't really met his yet, although he's a very good player. I'd really hate to give up all of that, and end up with another Zach Bogosian. He's a good player, but not worthy of that haul (to me).

There is certainly risk involved in the move, and that has to be part of the decision making process.

Right now, how would you rank Hagg, Ghost, and Morin, in order of most valuable to the Flyers to least (assuming Sanheim is at the top)?

P.S. If they move Sanheim, I will be (frank)ing pissed.

Morin, Ghost, Haag.

What channel is it on? NBCSports streams live so you might be in luck if they're showing it.

Edit - or you could come to my house. I won't be watching so the TV will be free.

Cable sucks.
Get satellite. During the 13.5 days I had no power as a result of Sandy I always had my satellite TV. Never lost it. My cable-loving neighbors were without it for more than three weeks. Double-whammy for those who also get their phone service via the cable company. Suckas!

If they pan out, it is a good day for them -- you do have to look at Kane's production and ask if he's a legit 30-goal guy, or just a guy with the clear potential to be one

I believe in straight-up talent, absolutely. Those three guys are talented, absolutely. Wouldn't moan too much if either were Flyers

But until proven otherwise, Lehner is still a guy who couldn't beat out Craig Anderson, Kane's been injury prone and inconsistent and Eichel hasn't played a shift yet

Let's say the jump to 3. Who do you think the offense prospect will be or should be?

Hahahaha glad I'm not alone clicking refresh every ten seconds.

Only relevant thing I have to say right now is my favorite draft prospects. And I'm not gonna write that down now, because I'm (frank)ing tired of typing Barzal, Provorov, Rantanen, connor, werenski, & crouse everyday....

Ha! OK!

In order, I am most curious about this stuff that is non-Flyers related:

1. Where Ryan O'Reilly winds up

2. If Boston risks letting Dougie Hamilton get to RFA with them jammed up like they are by the cap

3. What TML gets for either Dion Phaneuf or Phil Kessel, because I think they are case studies in what good -- not great -- players who make a lot of money return in trade in a capped league

4. If Arizona has to move before next season

5. What the Rags get for Cam Talbot

If I'm the flyers I don't trade up.If sanheim is the next Keith then why do you need to move assets to draft another number 1.I would go forward at 7 then d at 29.

an I think it makes some sense.
Avs need D.
Bruins need some forwards, especially if Lucic is toast

Ha! That would clear up No. 1 and No. 2 on my list

B's are in a bind with Hamilton -- yeah, you can dump salary, but you still gotta find a partner to do it with and they gotta take what you're offering to do it
