We only drafted one guy at center and he may not even stick there? Sheesh.

1st round pick - family from Reading, PA and dad played on one of Fletchers teams
2nd round pick - what's that?
3rd round pick - Bridgewater, NJ and going to Boston University
4th round pick - traded for a racist, homophobic, piece of garbage
5th round pick - Minnesota
6th round pick - big guy that cant play hockey
7th round pick - only non-questionable pick of the draft :laugh:
7th round pick - son of a Flyers scout

These guys get to keep their jobs after today too.

Then Fly-Jazeera will come to their defense.

Fedotov is better off in the Arctic Circle.

Am I looking at this right? Fletcher and Flahr took over in December 2018. Since then, there have been 4 drafts. The only listed Centers they've taken are Desnoyers with a 5th and Owen McLaughlin with a 7th. I'm speechless.

That's especially impressive since goalie prospects, equipment trainers, and pet rocks often get listed at "center." Now, including Gauthier, which of these 3 are you reasonably certain is a projectable center? None?

It makes the Frost situation that much more interesting. You have term in Hayes and Couturier, but remove Frost from the equation, which I have no doubt is under loose discussion, and it's a wasteland.

Again. This team personified would suffer from terrible physical and mental disabilities as well as MSUD, hemophilia, cystic fibrosis, and thalassemia.

Yeah but Desnoyers is a major reinforcement coming who should cement the position for years according to some

a team that suffers from that would be better than us. A team with those issues would likely have a competent medical staff, at least.

You could make an entire chart just from this draft. The best one yet! 60 pts this year and 55 next should be the end of Fletcher's career

I wouldn't be so sure. Believe me

Their final 7th round pick was #220 and I would not be shocked if everyone they drafted was on their own top-100 draft board.

Yeah, people are specifically frustrated by this very specific pick, because this specific player was born in the very specific area of


South Juuuuuuuuuuursey

Only this specific pick though.

Definitely no larger years-long trend indicating the Flyers are unduly fascinated with pursuing locals.

Desnoyers is a small winger that’s not overly good at skating and doesn’t possess the puck good enough to be a force at the NHL level.

Desnoyers will get owned if he tried playing center at the NHL level.

Flyers should just come clean about Ellis and move him to one of these teams that love fake contracts.

If they're going to attach the Panthers pick to something (and they are) do it to him if he's really just not ever going to play. He would probably magically heal though if they did move him.

100% thats what happens...

Wait I thought the Flyers had a 4th rounder
