I know we don't want to give up on the guy, but if another team could use his services and give up something the Flyers can use, don't they have to at least consider it?

If someone is offering a 2nd this year I'm taking that. Read is a good player, but that's a fair deal.

If the 2nd is in the beginning of the round I would take it too even though I like Read.

Based on what I think of Read as a player, that would be a horrendous deal for the Flyers in my opinion.

Wouldn't say now, do feel bad that he putting in work trying to make things happen but has a team that can't score or help him score.

a power forward like him is exactly why we need but being a power forward that's a lot of risk if we take him 3-5

Zacha, Strome, Rantanen and Svenchnikov are all wingers w/ size that could be in the 4-10 range, too.

Strome: big all-around offensive player, great hockey sense,
Zacha: big, fast, all-situations, rangy C/LW,
Svechnikov: gifted skater and playmaker, goes to the net hard, strong,
Rantanen: Prototypical power forward, all-situations player, huge.
