The whole fascination with size confuses me at this point. There are so many smaller players in the NHL that put up points and are successful NHL players. We will have plenty of size with on the blue line and 5'11" is far from small. We traded back a few spots, got a 2nd, and still got a player our scouts were targeting. It was a no brainer. We got a smart offensive defenseman that showed great improvement without the puck while still putting up numbers. By the time he is pro ready he will be even more complete.

The picks surrendered in RFA compensation have to be your own pick. So unless SJ trades us Hagg for our own 2nd rounder we can't offer sheet him. We would have to do a trade and sign. I think Kappy would be a perfect 3rd line RW for us. He's young, has speed, and can score.

At this point both would have to go through waivers

Bit more than I would like to give up but from what I can see he is a solid defensive dman, we have enough that can put up points. Looking at his GP seems to be real durable too. With San Jose needing to shed cap I would have hoped for a 3rd and bottom tier prospect but if the guy can help us out now the 2nd isn't a huge loss especially with how stocked our farm is. Now who gets shipped out.... or does Morin go to the minors for the year and Hagg stay as the 7th? Also Hart is probably loving these moves lol

Not sure how I feel about this. We're getting a guy who had a relative down year, is older, higher cap hit, longer term.

Flyers retain 30% of Gudas' salary. Niskanen has a $5.75 million cap hit for the next 2 years

Proposal I made on a AGM site was Ghost for 15thOA, Joni Ikonen (should be in the NHL next year), and Shaw. Tatar or Drouin could be targets as well but not sure if Montreal would give them up.

I think any Flyers fan would want them to pull that off, no way Nashville bites though.

. That's the thing with him, he has the size but also speed and some skill to go with it (at least from what I can read).

We ended up where it would be 12th, but with the Golden Knights in play it's pushed down to 13th

Well lucky #7! I'd like to get Michael Rasmussen to add some more size to the lineup and give us another power forward. If they stand at 13 I'm hoping Eeli Tolvanen. Not a big body but has more of a shoot first mentality that this team is lacking horribly.

Maybe they trade up to 7?

Once again we have a bunch of extra picks this year. Barring any changes due to the lottery (come on ping pong give us first overall!) we're looking like this. 1st round - 13th 2nd round - 13th (44th overall) 3rd round - 13th, 19th (75th, 81st thanks Boston!) 4th round - 13th, 14th, 15th ( 106-108) 5th round - 13th (137th) 6th round - 13th (168th) 7th round - 5th, 13th, 14th ( 191st, 199th, 200th) with the 5th possibly becoming a 2018 7th, nobody seems to know the condition. We have accumulated a lot of picks this year. I'm hoping Hextall can work some magic and use them to move up in the first or turn some later rounds into 2nd rounders. Should be a fun draft weekend regardless! Note: I know it is early for all this lol Edit: Just a side note we have the most draft picks this year with 12 while Washington and Ottawa are tied with the fewest at 4.

That warrants a pera-ban....

Want to get rid of diving? If somebody is called for diving or embellishment the player committing should walk scott free. Guarantee you will not have any diving after that, coaches will ride their players ass if they cost their team like that.
