very disappointed in their pick.
- TheFreak

why because it doesn't match your favorite mock draft?

And we can be comforted to know since Buffalo drafted Helenius, he won't turn into much

Please tell me how great this pick is dude. Way better talent at 12. I need your unwavering dedication to whatever the Flyers say to make this make sense. Time is yours… please tell me why this is a good pick.

Hopefully he’s more useful than Rubstov was cause that’s what this pick reminds me of.

He has a slick play list. Laughton does need to be spelled in the DJ booth.

On the Phantoms


The Flyers have no center prospects, drafts a 1st round center and he's still not the best center on the Flyers prospect list....WTF.

Still waiting on Rubstov and O'Brien...how long do I wait now?

Helenius and Luchenko are the same size
- jd250

I don’t understand passing on Buium. I just don’t. And not for a guy “that’s flying up the boards.”

How many flying up the boards picks have they taken the last few years. Pick the best player available and let’s go. Stop always having to be the smartest in the room and making the cutesy pick.

The Flyers could have had either player and passed on both .. what does that tell you? Flahr has a track record of making good picks and judging prospects well.

Tell me honestly what YOU think Luchenko's ceiling in the NHL will be?

Missed out is incorrect. Passed on is actually what happened.

Isn’t mission priority number one to find elite talent via savvy drafting?

So wtf was this pick then?

And yet I still wonder why the Flyers can't build a good team....

People will probably say, but they drafted Michkov, remember Michkov FELL to them.

No clue why.

Gotta get another fan favorite bottom 6 guy to keep the dumb(frank) season ticket holders stuck in the 70s happy.

How many Flyers drafts has he presided over? How many current full time NHL players in that span?

Would you rather have Matt Boldy or Cam York?

Belpedio or Brayden Point?

That's Flahr's record of trading down.

(maybe this one will work out... but the odds are against it)

Welp, at least Hamas sympathizers won’t be protesting us over Buium…

Damn. It wasn’t that hard. He was sitting there.

I’m on record I would’ve ran to podium to take Zeev. We shall see I guess

The Flyers getting cute when they absolutely need to nail every single pick. You have three more first round picks. Take the stud that fell into your lap. You can get cute at 32.
