Who is Michkov going to play with in 3 years?

Coots will be on the 4th line playing the Joe Thornton role on the Maple Leafs, Frost will be heading out as a UFA or dumped because he's a vet.

They need to draft a center next year

We’ll sign mcdavid

It fits the time line. He’s elite talent wiser . Pretty much a consensus 2nd best talent in the draft….in a year with out a generanal talent he’s a 1rst pick talent….coming into this year him and Bedard were neck and neck.
Now…the whole Russian thing. His dad being murdered in April under very suspicious circumstances. The Flyers swing for the fences.

- landros 2


Not clear he was murdered. Went for a walk. Was found dead in a nearby pond. Official cause of death was natural causes. Not saying I believe it but ...

What a topsy-turvy draft so far.

We end up with 7 and get top 2-3 talent. I know there is an asterisk because of the KHL, but you gotta roll them bones in that situation and take the skill.

And then as pieces start to fall, and we got a nice shot at another quality piece with the 2nd pick!

Did they hire Howie to sit in the booth with them?

2 shooters on the same line, not sure that would work.

Maybe they get Macklin Celebrini *crosses fingers*

I didn’t even hear ‘natural causes’. It was more vague than that. It was more like unknown circumstances.

Reminded me of when DeNiro made the call about Pesci getting he’s button in Goodfellas.

He’s gone. I don’t know what to tell you.we lost him.

"With that much success playing most of the season at his second-best spot on the ice, the Flyers are confident Gauthier can be even better shifting back to center.

"He's such a good skater that I think he'll be fine in the middle," Philadelphia special assistant to the general manager Daniel Briere said. "He's powerful. In the games that we've seen him last year, we thought he played really, really well in the middle. It gives him the chance to be more involved in the play, gives him the chance to use his skating ability even more, because he can get to different areas really quick because he's so explosive.

"The fallback is he can play wing all day long if center doesn't work. But right now, I see him as a center."
