Every summer I have to trick my brain and tell myself "No, the Flyers are not drafting and losing on purpose". Some of these picks go way beyond they just got unlucky and other teams do it too.

How many teams passed on Shane Wright? If the Flyers had the #1 pick in 2022, would they? Probably not.

I still think about how different this club is if they drafted Pettersson, Makar or Heiskanen.

He's been needlessly crashing the crease all season and mostly getting away with it.

Lucky for him that Quick retaliated.

A franchise cannot miss on #2 overall pick, they did. It set the franchise back, no doubt.

That's what Hathaway does, when he was in Washington he did it against the Flyers and it was said "Teams hate him, but if he's on your team you love him"...


Oddly that little saying has been proven wrong.

It really did, but the other half a dozen misses hurt just as much. Flyers need a top 20 player badly, Michkov may become one, but they still need one either way.

Both that saying (and it being proven wrong for us) also happened with Dan Carcillo.

Yup, this is when the Flyers dig in and hurt the fans by finishing the season with meaningless points....

Moral Victory!!!

Understand, but the odds of success have to be higher at 2nd overall. I get the O"Brien pick being a miss, but that was at least around 20 overall. No doubt they need more talent and it won't be attained thru free agency this summer. I expect trades.
