</p> There weren’t many changes to the Philadelphia Flyers top 20 prospects. But there is a new number one, with Shayne Gostisbehere taking the lead because of his impact at the NHL level. Other prospects saw jumps, including Merrick Madsen, Cooper Marody and Travis Konecny.

The majority of the team’s top prospects are still defensemen, as the Flyers have stockpiled for the position in recent drafts.… read more

Myers a bit low. Can't disagree with most of it otherwise. (EDIT: After a closer look, i find that this person didn't their homework at all...)

Funny thing is our 11-20 now used to be like our top 10 a few years ago. Huge change in 3 years.

 

[Ilkka Sinisalo]

Provorov dropped one spot in the rankings only because Gostisbehere is without question Philadelphia’s best defensive prospect

"without question" eh?

Lindblom should not be 17th.

Ah i missed lindblom, yeah can't believe how awesome our prospect pool looks. to be honest ghost shouldn't even be considered a prospect anymore, but yeah he is being considered for calder, it's unfathomable to rate someone else above him at this moment. Only provorov can be considered close i suppose

 

[GhostIsBae]

On Mark Alt: "He spent a game with the Flyers last year and has been a reliable call-up."

Seriously person??

 

[Cyborg LeClair]

Don't give this article clicks. It's written by the same NJ fan girl who doesn't know anything about the Flyers. Still has Konecny listed as a center prospect. And also, why is Ghost even listed as a prospect in her list? He's gonna be a finalist for the Calder trophy in a couple weeks

 

[Tripod]

Fazleev can be overshadowed by his teammate and fellow Philadelphia draftee Travis Sanheim, but don’t overlook the tight wing.

Tight wing eh?

 

[Striiker]

As always, I encourage Jashvina Shah to never write about the Flyers again.

 

[Juicy Pop]

Odd time to make this post seeing that Ghost won't be a prospect per HF standards [at least 65 games before 24] at the conclusion of this season.

 

[JojoTheWhale]

Did Tomek move up even further given that he still hasn't given up a goal? Sigh.

 

[Rebels57]

Boycott her articles. Only way we get some improvement.

 

[GhostIsBae]

Sandstrom didn't even make the list. Vasiliev is somehow still on it.

 

[Hurricane28]

Can we get someone else to write about the Flyers?

Seriously.

At least now I know better then to click the link and give this utter garbage even one more hit than it deserves.

 

[JHG]

As a BU fan and former student, that is embarrassing in more than one way.

 

[Beef Invictus]

I sure hope Ghost can hack it when he gets to the NHL.

 

[OzFlyers]

I sure hope Ghost can hack it when he gets to the NHL.

He's too skinny.

 

[CodyTheHuman]

Or Tony Androckitis. He already writes about the Phantoms and writes for HF. Makes sense to have him just cover the prospects.

Appleyard already writes a lot.

I say we have Hatcher do one.


ORRRR maybe Boxcar should do one!

The first prospect list to have the same player ranked in every spot.

 

[IrishSniper87]

Well, technically Laughton, Cousins and Ghost are with the Flyers so they are not really prospects anymore.

If I had to re-order these rankings, I'd most Provorov to #1.

 

[Embiid]

He's too skinny.

His nose is funnier than Sarah's

 

[DrinkFightFlyers]

Not sure Ghost should still be a prospect. He's not going back to the AHL any time soon. Aside from that the list is pretty solid. I think I'd put Konecny over Morin but that's splitting hairs. I think Konecny has a very good chance to make this team next year, whereas I don't see Morin on the team out of the gate, if only because of the presence of Provorov and possibly Sanheim.

 

[Embiid]

last night Pierre was praising the Flyers prospects but he mentioned Haag as one of the first ones...just thought it kind of funny. I know he knows he is not ahead of the likes of Provorov etc

 

[Hurricane28]

Or Tony Androckitis. He already writes about the Phantoms and writes for HF. Makes sense to have him just cover the prospects.

Agreed. I follow Tony on Twitter and he gives good coverage

 

[Hiesenberg]

Tony really focuses on Lehigh. Not sure he thinks he can be a solid contributor to all prospects. He's golden on AHL guys.
