So we differ.

Sure, which is fine. As good as Eichel is, I'm not trading a home-grown top-pair D that we have locked up long term. Just my take.

Since Nisky retired I’m surprised nylander to flyers isn’t everywhere.

Thoughts on Emil Heineman or Zion Nybeck? Mostly Nybeck

Probably because the Laine talk is drowning it out.

I am just glad Hextall isn't here to screw up the draft. Between 2014-2018, Hextall had way more misses than hits.

Ottawa just cleaning up in this draft. This team legit next year or year after

I wouldn’t go that far. It was a 10 year rebuild. Whether people wanted to believe it or not. The faster Jvr g Jake gone the better. Not saying just give them away. Do it smartly. Keep adding to young pool and roll with coots Hayes. Turn team over this year or next

The most important and biggest piece is in place for next 10+ years (Hart)

Hopefully over the next few days that answer becomes more clear.

obviously i'm not a psychic and can't tell you what round of the playoffs the flyers will get to, but there are a lot of ways the flyers can improve the team without making a trade. i'd like them to try to address the hole niskanen left though.

Hart save all the pucks, and flyers score on 1 of their 2 quality opportunities

It shouldnt be a shock. There were only a handful of teams with cap room to begin with. There are going to be bargains to be had if you are patient I would think.

The Flyers problem is that they need to find someone to play D on the top pair, and if it isnt someone who can hold their own up there, its often going to be ugly. So, either find someone from outside who can play those minutes or find someone to play further down the rotation and move up someone who is already on the roster.

This is going to be interesting, more so than in years past.

Any chance of a top pair D getting bought out? (yeah.. right!)

Jets grabbed another sniper over a D man. Liane is as good as gone.
