There 's no reason for the Flyers to move back. They have no cap issues or lack of prospect depth. What they need is a young top line center which NP or Nico is. Can't see a move down happening.


I don't follow the Devils, but I don't think they're as farm deep as we are, so it makes sense for them more. Please let it be so.

And we are Nashville's home opener on the 10th. Looks like a long road trip to start the season.

Article about potential deal.

The rumor is that the Flyers will trade the 2nd overall pick and (anchor) Andrew MacDonald to the Vegas Golden Knights for the 6th, 15th, and 24th overall picks.

Flyers have drafted great in the 1st round, it's surprising people wouldn't want them to add 2 1st rounders to move back 4 picks. Nico and Nolan are definitely the best players projected but neither are a sure thing to be a star.

I'm surprised Vegas would want to give up 3 picks for one non sure thing #2 pick even as a face of the franchise. They'd be better off stockpiling talent.

Well it is rumored that they may be getting like a million picks in deals just for not taking certain players.

yeah i could live with adding three players that are a year or two away and losing that contract. would be stacced with prospects like the organization has never seen before.

We already have a lot of talent in the pipelines, what we don't have is the eventual 1C replacement for Claude Giroux. With Nico or Patrick we get that potential.

Glass and Mittelstadt have that potential too imo, one of them would be there at 6 I believe. There are a handful of them that are at least top 6 forwards that would be there at 6. Vilardi, and Necas too.

Only one can be taken per team unless there are trades and such. Looks like it's Bellemare.

maybe the nhl made an exception since they equal the equivalent of one player.

Watch it be 2 + Bellmare + Vandevelde for 6. It would be such a horrendous move.
