IMO they just decided to take the best player available and im ok with that strategy.

I imagine they look at TSN mock draft charts, and rankings, and pick the best player they have listed who is available.

There's no way he should have been there at 8. I liked Hamilton a ton, but Courturier is a stellar value at number 8

they just know they'll (frank) up the D pick no matter who it is, so they just figure they'll get their man from somebody else down the line.

You are correct, they have achieved much more success drafting forwards in the first then d-men, that is for sure.

The two best places for Larsson and Hamilton to go, for the Flyers sake, is NJ and Boston. So that's a positive.

Very. Couturier was rated number one last year. He got over scouted, and dropped a bit. He's a great pick at 8
