I could watch Sharapova play all day. She's my dream girl.

She's Russian though. Inconsistent effort and lack of commitment are inevitable.

Not sure, but maybe one of Adam Larsson, Joe Morrow, or Slater Koekkoek.
- jmatchett383

I think he would be the cheapest.

Maybe they can round up all the hookers on the Ave and Tioga Park and have them sweep the broken bottles and drug debris from the rink surface before they get there hahahaha

Her backchecking needs work. But she hits like a truck.

I like Koekkoek in that draft. I like Larsson to but don't think Devils would trade to us. He is an RFA. Could send an OS of something that only surrenders a 2nd or 3rd rounder. If Devils match ok but worth the try.

Devils will match any offer unless it's absurd. They aren't going to give up on a 3rd overall pick for a 2nd rounder.

Maybe. It is kind of like when they did it to Kessler. Enough to make other team really think about it.

what a waste of tin foil. awful.

Button has Virtanen as his 45th prospect 3-5 years down the line in the draft class. Interesting.

That is interesting. So many have him as top 8 and no way to drop past 10. I'd be curious to know why

Anyone know any prospects that might be able to be had because their development has been slowed? Other then the normal ones like Del Zotto and Rundblad.

I mean Washington gave up on Forsberg quickley. Maybe Flyers could find a deal like that to help.

Tyler Biggs RW (TOR)
Matt Donovan D (NYR)
Nate Schmidt D (WSH)
Mikhail Grigorenko C (BUF)
Colby Robak D (FLA)
Sven Bärtschi LW (CGY)
Nicklas Jensen RW (VAN)
David Musil D (EDM)
Patrice Cormier C (WPG)
Taylor Beck RW (NSH)
Matt Dumba D (MIN)
Scott Glennie RW (DAL)
Duncan Siemens D (COL)

Some of these guys are on the verge of being declared busts... some are just struggling w/ development or are having trouble making the full-time jump to the NHL. I think all have an outside chance at being NHL players at some point, and almost all could be had for strictly non-roster asset(s).

Devils re-signed Zidlicky to 1 year $4M and Flyers Signed Matt Hatch from Union to an AHL deal.

I see he has Brandon Lemiux at 33 all the way up from 51. Thatcher Demko at 53. Wish there was a place to see why he has ranks where they are

I'd love to do a lot of things with her. Goat or no goat, her choice.

I wouldn't mind if they checked on these.

No way they won't match unless it's a 1st coming back as compensation.

FREAKORENKO!?!? BUST!?!?

But really, I don't think Dumba or Siemens could be had easily. But hey, kick the tires.

Travis Sanheim from 32 to 8. Based of previous rank to current he should provide some reasoning because from looking at that I would think this draft would be hard to mock other then the top 5

Glennie will not be an NHL player, in all likelihood. This is a big year coming up for Jamie Oleksiak... he looked totally over his head during his brief stints in the NHL and there is only so much to gain for him in the AHL.

Once you get past Fleury, it becomes a guessing game of who likes who.

#17 straight up for #1, draft Ekblad..

Problem solved, no guesswork required for the Flyers.
