Offensive defenseman. Is ghost gonzo?

Fletcher keeps saying they want them in the minors first...hard to say

They need more defenders in the system, tbh

Two guys fell to us after a shrewd trade, and instead we took a dude that might pan out to be a 2nd pairing defenseman in 5 years instead of a potentially strong sniper.

Someone help me understand the Flyersbuzz rage over not drafting a 5 foot 6 player that 13 other teams have passed on?

I doubt they have seen York play.

guys it's not that bad lol

Doesn't York have serious question marks? We have good depth I would be willing to risk it on a potential superstar like Caufield

Not sad about York, but Caufield is gonna torch the Flyers at every opportunity.

Burke praising the pick
- Landsbergfan


Yes. He must be terrible.

I'll have to take some time to see if I think the pick is good. I like the second back.

They do but the D men they have up now are so damn young it's not a pressing need.

At least it wasn't Krebs

Feel bad for Caufield doing his best (unintentional and unwilling) Aaron Rodgers impersonation.
- Doc_Sarcasm



All the teams picking now did not expect him to be there.

i would say that Caufield has some real serious question marks. but yes York isn't a guaranteed top defense prospect either.

i'm just fine with the pick not thrilled but not outraged either.
