You're underselling him a bit. The kid has franchise potential.

The winger UFA market appears to be very soft as far as contract value. No need to cave on TK's extension. Nothing against any player getting paid, but no need to reset the market on winger salary either.

See to me if multiple teams start passing on him it’s means there’s some serious medical concerns and I don’t know why the Flyers would do that to themselves after the Patrick fiasco.

If they could move 32+ and take a chance on him that’s fine but they can’t afford another bust with 12.

That is the catch. And the Flyers should be wary of that.

But there are also no shortage of players who had pre-draft injury history and turned out just fine, so it's just part of the risk assessment.

I met her at a wedding. Danced with her at a wedding in London, Ontario where I was the best man.

She is my best friend’s, wife’s, younger sister’s, best friend.

Imagine everyone here bashing the Flyers for their impatience and then the first post as the draft is starting is a “f*ck it” trade…..

Seeing the Flyers as pick 32 is weird.

That sharks fan is the most annoying human being on the planet. We can’t figure out how to mute him, ESPN?
