What current player would you accept for the number two pick?

[kelmitchell]

This covers 100% and 360 degrees of this matter - a big no to Drouin for #2.

Agreed 100%

 

[captainpaxil]

Duchesne. Signed at a reasonable deal and could slot into the line
Up.

 

[WIP CALLER]

no thanks at all to Duchesne. he won't have a reasonable deal and he isn't exactly young. I would only trade this pick for a center 23 or under that is either a number 1 now or has a strong potential to be a number 1. outside of mcdavid, draisatl, Matthews, eichel, barkov, marner, mackinnon and scheifele I can't think of anyone else that fits the bill. I don't think 2 gets any of them without a significant add.

 

[Striiker]

Only people I'd accept for this pick is Patrick or Hischier.

...oh wait...

I hope this thread just hit it's rock bottom with this one. Drouin is terrible idea, and this is somehow way worse.

 

[BrindamoursNose]

I would absolutely offer our #2 and another item for Jack Eichel

 

[Striiker]

No way in hell Buffalo would even consider that.

 

[Curufinwe]

If the other item was Provorov, Buffalo might listen.

 

[Striiker]

But then we wouldn't.

Patrick/Hischier+Provorov > Eichel

Even if Patrick/Hischier score 20 points less per year, Provorov more than makes up for just the offense alone, and that's not even considering the defensive side.

I wouldn't trade #2 for anyone we could reasonably get. We need what this pick promises to be too badly.

Obviously, if we were getting McDavid/Matthews/Eichel, #2 and several other assets would be out the door, and that's life. However, that's not happening, so let's just sit back and enjoy our good luck.

Patrick/Hischier+Provorov > Eichel

Even if Patrick/Hischier score 20 points less per year, Provorov more than makes up for just the offense alone, and that's not even considering the defensive side.

What about Eichel for #2, Sanheim, 3rd? I would think long and hard about it but I don't think I could throw 2 A grade pieces in like #2 and Sanheim for what may end up being a marginal upgrade over Nico/Nolan. At the same time I think Buffalo would seriously consider this before they hung up the phone.

 

[NatP4]

Nathan Mackinnon

 

[David St Hubbins]

All current athletes I would be happy to accept if we trade the #2 overall.

Otherwise, **** off

Would rather keep 2 and Sanheim, who has tremendous potential at a crucial position in today's NHL.

 

[Jack de la Hoya]

I think Mackinnon might be the only guy who isn't an instant "no" for either team--not that I'm sure either team ultimately does it.

So who is the most controversial (worst as viewed by others) player that you would take in a trade straight up for our number 2 overall pick? For example, everyone would take McDavid for the pick. Not very controversial. Would you take Corey Perry at his current age, contract, and skill level? How about Taylor Hall?

I'm basically interested to see how much value other Flyers fans put on this pick in terms of current player trade value.

Being as controversial as I can, I would accept Drouin straight up, but I have trouble feeling strongly about it.

Nikolaj Ehlers might be the only guy right now I'd consider dealing the 2nd overall for. Actually Ehlers and Winnipeg's first for the 2nd overall and I think it's something that would need to be considered. Not saying Winnipeg would do it, but if they came to the Flyers with that kind of offer on the table, it would be awfully tough to turn it down.
