Flyers need to stock up on elite talent, Leaf Nation told me the Flyers are a decade away from where the Leafs are now.

We need to draft a lot!

Depending who is still on the board, I'd be open to any of the following scenarios when they get to the 19th pick

1. Trade the pick in a deal to get Sam Bennett out of Calgary

2. Trade the pick to Detroit for the 30th, 33rd and the 3rd rounder we sent them for Mrazek

3. Trade the pick, and the 50th overall, to Satan's spawn, aka the Rangers for #26 and
#28

4. Trade the pick and Neuvirth to St. Louis for the 29th pick and Jake Allen.

Gonna be fun day and the scotch supply is ample!

D day

Can't wait for tonight! Why am I still at work?

4 is interesting though u may be able to get Allen for the 2nd if the blues looking to dump him

The rum bottle is ready.

I am going to enjoy the ride tonight not just with the Flyers but with all teams. I am expecting a crazy night

Saw Lehner is most likely not getting a QO. Would be an interesting option if you moved Neuvirth. At 26 he could give time if needed for Hart.

I wonder if recovering that third rounder from the Mrazek trade burns like a tiny ember in Hextall's brain.

Weren't Elliott and Allen a duo in STL? How did they work together?

Very well from what I remember.

While I dont think it happens at all in anyway , imagine another Richards\Carter trade day.

OKay actually dont imagine that as G is one of my favorite Flyers ever.

Anyone but Noel.

Unless it's Noel Gallagher. Then cool.

From all I’ve ever heard, they got along very well.

My final hope is Farabee/Breggen as bast case scenario. No D men at 14 unless it's Miller.

I agree the Leafs are a lot closer than we are. I think Austin Matthews, William Nylander, Mitch Marner and Morgan Riley has more to give. I think Kapanen is about to see a full season with them.

I don't see the Flyers trading G, I think you are stuck liking him forever.

He should pass MacLeish, I believe, this year for scoring. Doubt he catches Clarke, but Propp and Barber are possible.

I think going into this season with Hakstol, Giroux and Voracek will be more of the same heading into next season. I would entertain moving Voracek.

It's hard to find an Oasis fan.

G isn't going anywhere. The team has such poor LW depth behind him. If a core piece is being moved this summer it's gonna be Simmonds.

I was being sarcastic, other than Matthews, the Flyers depth of prospects easily matches or best the Leafs from all major positions.
