RustThere’s 7. Not to be a jerk. Something just seemed off there.
Naslund did it elsewhere. Rust just made it. Bonus points for MAF who will be a HOF goaltender.
The Flyers have never had to build exclusively through the draft, so the easy answer to that, is no, they’re not a gold standard. They built very good teams through trading. Post salary cap they’ve been slow learners though, realizing you can’t operate like you used to, you’ve gotta build through the draft.
Just give it time, Briere’s had five 1st rounders in the past three drafts, and seven 2nd rounders, some of these kids are going to hit. What happened before he came around, during the Scott years, is over and done with, time to look forward.
are you slow?
clearly you’re not giving credit to the flyers when you say “half did it elsewhere”. so I’m extending the same courtesy for other teams. Try to keep up.
so flyers drafting and developing is right up there with the best teams. if that’s your narrative, it is misinformed.
– I am giving them credit otherwise wouldn’t have mentioned half did it elsewhere. Would have only mentioned the ones that did in a flyers uniform.
– using the avs data they are not up there with the best teams. that is flat out false.
– you have comprehension problems. your math is incorrect. yet you call me slow and to try and keep up.
one final question. do you think the flyers are the gold standard?

60+ pt players on the team that drafted them since 1990:
Flyers – 6
Avalanche – 6
Lightning – 6
Penguins – 5
NY Rangers – 4
Red Wings – 3
Blackhawks – 3I count 14 players who the avs drafted, who put up 60 or more points all while playing for the avs. didn’t bother looking at the rest.
nolan, kovelnko, deadmarsh, drury, hejduc, tanguay, statsny, stewart, duchesne , oreiliy, landescog, mckinnon, rattenenwhy did you change the criteria to points just playing for the team that drafted them?
Add Daze for the hawks as well.
Absolutely right, thanks. I get the flyers haven’t won cups but if the argument is we just simply can’t draft and produce nice players it’s not accurate. Whether we can find a way to win with them is another story though.
