I hate to say it, but the NYR are going to have a great draft. 5 picks in the top 48.
Like if Draftsite was 100% accurate, they would walk away with:
Bouchard at 8
Denisenko at 26
Bokk at 28
Berggren at 39
Demin at 48

If center is on their agenda, I can see them wanting Lundestrom enough to trade up for him making the Flyers a good trade partner. However I can see the Flyers wanting Lundestrom too.All 3 of them could be off the board by the time New York makes their 2nd pick. I also sincerely doubt they dont pick a Center or two with their first 3 picks.
Hard to say. As for the C, they did add Anderson and Chytil in the 1st rd last year so likely go BPA I would think having so many picks. Regardless, they will be filling possibly a 5 man unit very early in the draft.All 3 of them could be off the board by the time New York makes their 2nd pick.

With that many picks I expect them to trade up.Hard to say. As for the C, they did add Anderson and Chytil in the 1st rd last year so likely go BPA I would think having so many picks. Regardless, they will be filling possibly a 5 man unit very early in the draft.
Hopefully they blow a few picks like they did with McIlrath,
That's the opposite of what they just did. Not to mention, they have their goalie of the future coming soon so no need to panic.You know the Rangers will just trade all of these guys for the next Rick Nash to try to get one more run in during Henrik's career.
Miller is the only defenseman I’d want at 19. I like him a lot.No worries. If we all saw this stuff the same, this place would be pretty boring.
My question is where do I place K'Andre Miller against some of the other defenders (like Lundqvist) who might be available at #19? His combination of size, skating and potential is really intriguing.

Not at 19 im not that big of a fan of him or miller....if we trade back a few spots then yesU don't like sandin?
Haven’t seen a full game of him, so I don’t really have an opinion. Got into the draft kinda late.U don't like sandin?
Actually I could see Samuelsson being around at 50 and would love him there as well.
I don't think either Jesperi Kotkaniemi or Barrett Hayton will realistically still be on the board with the 14th pick, so I'm taking those names out of the mix in that spot. If the Flyers were to trade up into the top 5 or 6, I believe that defenseman Noah Dobson would be their top specific candidate and power forward Brady Tkachuk would be a fallback option of interest if they couldn't grab one of the top centers in a center-weak first round. This is strictly speculative on my part, but based on Ron Hextall's stated organizational priorities and player traits he values.
Better prospect in their draft season - Dobson or Provorov?
Sounds like Boqvist is a potential faller. He’d be a player they could slowly develop for 3-4 years until someone gets too expensive. Possible replacement for Ghost if he’s too expensive after his deal is up.
