nothing unhinged at all about whine-posting ad nauseum. gotta love it
just doesn’t seem healthy. if you hate the team so much maybe get off the internet for a bit. it’s exhausting to read so it’s gotta be draining to pound at that keyboard all morning haha
hfboards seems more your speed. or maybe try wordle.
I don’t get it either? Just go cheer for someone else. San Jose is going to be an absolute wagon with the kids they’ve picked in the past three drafts, they’ve had six first round picks in 2023/2024/2025 including 1st, 2nd & 4th overall, plus they got Sam Dickinson at #11, that kid is super talented and going to be an NHL all-star. I’m sure there’s room on their bandwagon.
Anaheim too, they’re orange and they’ve amassed some great young talent through the draft, they’ve been at it for seven years/drafts, picking 2nd, 3rd, 3rd, 6th, 9th, 10th & 10th overall in that timeframe, but hey, they’re gonna turn the corner sooner than later…right? LOL – probably lots of room on their bandwagon too!!
I can’t complain with the selection of Martone. Was hoping one of the two was available @ 6- unexpected both available. I just do not see a path how Tippett will be on the roster 2 years from now unless Foerster falls off. Hope they sell high and do not beat the value out of him before moving him. As far as Nesbitt, we all knew they were going center with their next pick after Martone. Once McQueen was selected by ANA, pretty sure the prospects left who were considered first round and definitely projected to play center in the NHL were Nesbitt and Cootes. My preference would have been Cootes, but I understand the process.
If Ryabkin falls into the 3rd round, I sure hope the Flyers make the pick. I understand the warts, but at that point of the draft using a lottery ticket for him.
Outside of the top five or six kids, most of these other kids who are selected will be NHL role players, I personally think Martone is going to be an impact NHL’er, he’s really talented. Sure there’ll be two of three kids like Brayden Point or Jason Robertson, but those are the outliers and teams will obviously be lucky to find one of them. Just look back nine or ten years at drafts, 2015 produces 29 kids who has 200 or more points, 2016 produces 16 kids with 200 or more points. Elite talent generally comes from the very top of the draft, when you’re picking after #10 you’re hoping to get lucky and you’re also building depth within your organization.
gotta love what exactly?
The process, gathering young talent, exciting times to be a Flyer fan. Building towards a great future, new direction, you gotta love it!!
pure entertainment.
Right, you gotta love it.
2nd Round Flyers picks: 36th (4th pick), 40th (8th) and 48th (16th).
On to round two, man, it’s an exciting time to be a Flyers fan. Building a championship team is a process, but it’s gonna be fun watching it all come together in the next five or so seasons.

BjarnasonI’d like to see them focus on centers and defense for round two today.
Really happy with the first round picks, considering this is a pretty underwhelming draft in terms of high-end talent, they did well to get Martone and then add a big center in Nesbitt. Both are somewhat project kids who need to work on their foot speed, but that’s something that can be addressed in the long term.
They’ve gotta just keep building brick by brick until you’ve got something, keep piling up the picks and young players, success will come! I forget how many picks we have in the second round now, but if you look back to the 2023 NHL draft the Flyers are starting to compile some good prospects. Brick by brick.
historic day lol…good lord
LOL – just let me have an exciting day, love the draft and the fact the Flyers have FINALLY put some stock into using it.
That is now set. If you hit quote (right hand side), you can make clear what reply you’re responding to.
We are still working on the mobile phone issues on the Forums.
Eventually, wed’ like to add an HHS app but that’s not imminent.
Much better!! Thank you!!
We’re one of the smallest teams in the league, plus I’m not a big fan of this kid, but he is definitely skilled and we need centers.
Can you imagine, if they make all seven picks in rounds one and two. I can’t think of any franchise who’s done something like that in recent memory. Even Bill Armstrong and the Coyotes organization didn’t amass that many picks in any one draft, although, in 2021 – 2022 – 2023 they drafted six times in the round one and six times in round two. This could change the direction of the franchise if they hit on even half of these picks.
not trying to be a whiner but the site is unusable on mobile. ads take up 4/5 of the screen and it logs you out whenever you try to use the forums. quite literally only works on desktop.
My desktop is logging me out and won’t let me reply to some topics either, I don’t know what’s going on but there are some serious “glitches” with this site???
