Well they pick michkov, cutter, bonk all 3 look good even if 1 plays for the ducks

Remember how excited we all were when we thought Provy/Ghost/Travis/Myers/Hagg/Morin would become the best d-corps in the league, that NP was capable of being a worthy heir-apparent to G and that Carter Hart would become Carey Price?

Lot of light at the end of that there tunnel.

Yeah, let's not celebrate how wonderful the Flyers recent draft picks are after theyve only played a grand total of 1 NHL game between them.

Yes but now under new management, so you really can't help the joke that chuck fletcher was

Under new management. You really believe that?

I agree except for the true #1. No one on earth was calling Gustav Forsling a true #1 and he just won the cup with Florida.

I would consider Ekblad their #1, even if he was hurt for some of their season.

This year I don't expect much, I'm hoping bottom 10, but they very well could be better, but with 3 first a few 2nd picks and cap space to open up, things can change very positive a lot faster then expected.

Personally I would have traded tk for best package available, but they didn't which is OK because you can have a team of 19,20 year Olds you gonna need a few vets and some will be getting paid.

And I do see the light at the end of the tunnel, you don't need to be complete crap for 6 years to build a cup contender. We already have a solid top prospect in mm and next year's draft we will have at lest 2 others.

Jett I think k will surprise you with his ceiling.
I wouldn't be surprised if he pushing for a roster spot in 2 years

I think this age thing get's overplayed. The Flyers only have 3 players under 25. The youngest being Drysdale at 22 and he's entering his 5th year in the league already.

To be fair…
Mm fell into lap ( no brownie pts for that) if anything it was the easiest pick to make

Cg top5 pick they lucked into by accidentally being so bad (not by design) AND they somehow managed to screw up that gift


Bonk. Is a nothing burger. Hasn’t played 1 game in nhl. Already being more than likely overrated by fans. Probably due to low expectations of draft position. Nothing new for this team or base


As you’ve noticed in the review none of this was by design. It’s basically a byproduct of suck and luck. Hey I like that. I might start using that to describe this team

And the most important thing is you NEVER EVER EVER EVER need them for these 4-8 year term contracts

Luchanko is 2-3 years away from making a legitimate impact at best. The odds are very low that Bonk develops into a 1D. His most likely projection is a 2nd pair NHL defenseman.

So why not just agree with me, the path to getting the key pieces to building a true contending team is fuzzy at best.

You know you are always negative, they say a fan that's always negative is a cowardly fan, because if the team is bad it easy to say I told you so and if the team is good who cares the team is good.

You always pick on certain ppl for being positive or just a fan, who cares how he flip flops.
A fan is a fan because when you hot the fan blows on you, if you cold they don't.

but I'm not flip flopping at all. I like the rest of us am just trying to put the pieces of information together to understand what the heck is going on. At any point, I might think one thing based on the information available, and then might think something different as more information becomes available. As I pointed out earlier when I lined everything up I have posted, there is a consistent pattern here. I love TK. I wanted the Flyers to extend him if the contract was reasonable. I am happy he is staying with the Flyers in the end, even though I am unclear as to what the plan is and I wasn't crazy aobut the contract.

Why would I just agree with someone who changes his opinion daily? With someone who has argued vociiferously how the Flyers can rebuild the team in 2-3 years?

LOL, you mean as you listen to someone else's opinion. The next podcast you listen to, or Youtube video that you watch. Or the next article you read or the next Flyers press conference. You don't even know what you post. You posted recently that re-signing Konecny doesn't line up with the Flyers timeline. Now here you are flip flopping. Can't make it up. You have zero self awareness. It's hysterical.
