Oh brother! Well, since you and your little brother don't know how to skate that won't be an issue and you can't touch me in HORSE either. True story...one of my buddies had a few drinks a few years ago one night and he started mouthing off about the hockey/basketball comparison (he played division 2 college BB) and we met at a playground the next day. It didn't end well for him. When he showed up I was flying around on roller blades and picking the corners at will. He was afraid to even put on the skates. Then I proceeded to crush him in HORSE (I didn't even get a letter) and I hadn't even touched a basketball in 10 years. You don't wanna go there!

Assuming that happens, the Flyers would have the #12 (theirs), #27 (Giroux deal) and #51 (compensatory for Jay O'Brien) picks for sure, along with possibly #37 (if Columbus lets it go in a relatively weak draft year, otherwise it goes to Philly in 2025). If they can package some of those picks (assuming #12 plus whatever) to move up and select an impact player, this would definitely be the year to do it.

If #12, #27 and a second rounder could get them into the top 5, it might be worth it. To move up 4 spots, would not give up more than a second (or later) rounder and even that would hardly be worth it. Outside of Celebrini and few others like Demidov, Lindstrom, Silayev and Levshunov, there is not a lot of consensus in the rankings. For example, I've seen Zeev Buium ranked as high as 4th and as low as 20th, and much the same for guys like Berkly Catton and Cole Eiserman.

- Pelle Schultz


I agree they need to try to move up. They need to come away with 1 of the top defenseman or centers. I’m not too interested in the wingers. Yes, would love a goal scorer like Eiserman but look at the Capitals during Ovie’s career. It wasn’t until they added Carlson and Kuznetsov to Ovie and Backstrom that they won the cup.

You made up a story and then began that story by saying "true story" and then called someone who said it wasn't a true story "turd breath."

Dude, I am dying from the funniness of it all. You are just killing me.

I think Eiserman is much much better and more dynamic than Caulfield. Yet Caulfield's nickname is Goal and somehow has a cap of 7.8m. Someone please explain that to me.
- Glak18


Don't think there's any question that Caufield was seen as a (much) better goal scorer on draft day than Eiserman is now. And he's having a rough year but 80 goals in his first 200 NHL games ain't bad at all.

Eiserman would be lucky to match that.

Curious if the Flyers were the team at 8 and moved back to 12 for a mid 2nd, how would you feel about that? Would you do that deal?

I ask this because I feel like the top C’s and D’s will be gone before 12.

- Schmojo


In this draft, maybe.

I could see the Flyers trading back from #12 and driving people crazy. Like they did by trading out of #11 in the Cam York draft. Looks silly now with Boldy playing so well.

No shots on goal.

Foerster is on his way...hopefully the Flyers don't pay him 8m for a 2nd 20 goal campaign.

Stewie would destroy him for that poor positioning.
