I thought it was a joke that Flahr was being given the 7th pick. Was it not?

He is a largeness.

However:

Perhaps he is not a skillless

Look i try not to throw things out like "they just wasted this pick" unless it's really egregious. Like, taking a projected 6th/7th in round 1/2, that's wasting a pick. And it's hard to complain about a 7th rounder, but when a guy's UPSIDE appears to be "fringe AHLer" then... why even use any pick on that?

I'm skeptical his upside is ECHL.

How was a guy with that stat line ranked so high?
Apparently he has plus skating and for someone that size, that undeveloped, and that unknown it really pumped him up. Plus, his dad is the Senators AGM so that could help. His shot, although powerful, is quite atrocious. His defense is just to stop the player by getting them off the puck. I wouldn’t call him overly physical or even a physical Dman, but he knows how to use his size.
