The 13th overall pick is worth 5.3 wins over the next seven seasons.

Ristolainen is projected to be worth -0.1 wins over that same stretch of time. An incredible win for Buffalo.

Patrick was second. Flyers draft picks is usually nobodies in nomansland

As usual this franchise can't get out of their own way. So embarrassing.

Ghost a 1st, 2- 2nds, 7th for Risto who is a free agent at years end.
- hello it's me 2050


I love how people are lumping in what was given up with Ghost in the Risto trade for narrative.

Remember Fletcher didn't make Ghost to play like a turd for the majority of his career. Just imagine if Ghost played better the last 3 years then he wouldn't have to pay someone to take him.

Making moves is one thing but adding a 1st rounder is absolutely a stupid use of assets.
Risto in my opinion isn’t worth that price.

Everyone saw this team’s defense last year.

You can’t keep the vets in place and keep kicking the can down the road. At least Fletch is trying to build a team that can win instead of this half-hearted rebuild poop Hextall was peddling.

Dave Scott needs to be put out to pasture immediately. He is a Clear and Present Danger to the Philadelphia Flyers.

Well, I think the D mix is much better now, I think the D will be solid but a 1st plus...

The team is better, still not a contender. If you are going to move Ghost and your 1st, plus you better have being a contender in mind. Do I believe another team would have given up a 1st? I do but is about the Flyers not the other teams.

If this is it then CF overplayed his hand. If he is still going to address the O side, I will wait and see.

All of us asked for a partner for Provy, we all wanted a tough D, well we got it.

So the Flyers are already out of this year's first round, next year's second round, and the following year's second round.

After this season's trade deadline they won't have any picks in the first three rounds for the next three seasons.

If that was the cost that is too much. Play a little chicken fletch. Draft is tonight don’t know why you would do that this far ahead of it. Make them sweat a little

This could be the worst trade I am aware of involving the Flyers recently. Mind-boggling. Simply mind-boggling. They have up a high 1st for a 2nd pairing D who is essentially Gudas+?

I'm actually not even that opposed to the player. The cost was absolutely mind numbingly stupid to pay.
BINGO!

This is 1st round pick for Steve Eminger level bad.

Taken in a vacuum, yes the team is better. But a 1st round pick for a guy who will be a UFA is too much. Right back in to cap hell.

There HAS to be something else going on.
