The funniest part of the “being saddled with Deslauriers” point, is that the very last shift Couturier played against Boston, he basically one handedly muscled the puck over to Deslauriers for the easy goal and then got his ass benched despite the late come back. It was almost like Torts got pissed off that he overcame the Deslauriers challenge and wanted to make sure he was punished accordingly.

That's a pretty tough question to answer IMO. York and Sanheim are the only things holding our entire defense together. Most defenseman don't really hit their full stride until 26-27 and he's already a quality #2 defenseman.

Admittedly, some of the D-men in the top 5 are pretty f***ing impressive.
I would trade Sanheim long before I would trade York on the basis that whoever we draft would hopefully be ready for 3-4 years time in what I hope is a Flyers window. Sanny is 28 in a week.

No is winning. :laugh:

York is a solid player who probably can be a #2-3 if things keep going well, and is a #3-4 at worst.

But jesus.

Do people realise what a #5 pick usually garners?

2002-2017:
5x 1C/1D/1G/Star wing (Wheeler, Price, Kessel, Rielly, Pettersson)
5x 1 line/#2-3 (Vanek, Schenn, Lindholm, Hanifin, Whitney)
3x 2nd line/#3-4 (Strome, Niederreiter, Alzner)
1x Bottom six/#5-6 (Schenn)
2x Non-NHL (Juolevi, Dal Colle)

So From 16 years?

10x players that are at or better than York's ceiling value wise.
13x players that are at or better than York's floor value wise.

Ooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I don't like this question, it makes me do brain.


Looking back at 2019 it looks like in his draft class, in a redraft, he'd maybe go in the are of 7th at best? So I guess....Yes? I would?

But on the other hand it is the Flyers doing the drafting. So....no. Let's not risk that.

Forget all those numbers - if we can get to 5, we can get wherever we need to get Demidov.
