flyer4ever Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Only time will tell. Koenecy is an awesome skater though. 2 players who can really skate. the Flyers are getting faster! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonJeremy Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 I read a great article on Konecny on SB Nation , it also showed incredible videos of him. He has an incredible shot, in spite of what those morons said on NBSCN he is an awesome skater and he looks like an incredible player.He couldbe a scoring machine. I couldnt copy the link for some reason,sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarsippius Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Did the Leafs really turn around and trade #29 and completely out of the first round with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poulin20 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Did the Leafs really turn around and trade #29 and completely out of the first round? WTF? The Laughs continue! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlaskaFlyerFan Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Did the Leafs really turn around and trade #29 and completely out of the first round with it? Yes. I think the player they had their eye on was Konecky. They thought he would be there a few picks later! LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 I think the player they had their eye on was Konecky. That or when the Isles took Anthony Beauvillier...then they traded back... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philly29 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 I love it the Flyers had one hell of a 1st round. Very excited to see what they do tomorrow! Provorov and Konecny both on the wish list great picks by the Flyers. Now with Konecny on the team and his position being a RW plus Laughton coming up I would imagine B.Schenns days are numbered with the Flyers. I know Konecny isn't ready for NHL action yet but do you guys see Schenn traded maybe tomorrow for draft picks and or players? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlaskaFlyerFan Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 That or when the Isles took Anthony Beauvillier...then they traded back... The trade happened too soon after that pick. I actually think they were eyeing Juulsen or Larsson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Very excited to see what they do tomorrow! Maybe they can move Luke and/or Nck and get a 2nd rounder tomorrow..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 The trade happened too soon after that pick. I actually think they were eyeing Juulsen or Larsson. Well they do have phones and guys out there who kind of know who is going next...who knows...Leafs went further down without a pick good for them.

jammer2 Posted June 27, 2015 Author Share Posted June 27, 2015 @OccamsRazor Bro, it was HILARIOUS....I had 6 people over to watch the draft, one was a Habs fan, the other 5 were Leaf fans. The general consensus was the first move back was ok, but they FREAKED when the passed up on 29 and moved right out the first round. It was actually a BUNCH of fun to watch them squirm and swear up a storm!! LOL! No doubt, the kid they were targeting went before the Leafs picked....so they decided to move back yet again....this much I know, they could have had Travis Konecny to themselves instead of moving back.....THEN, when they did move back they had a shot at Nick Merkley at #29 before they traded back yet again, the Hockey News Draft Preview had Nick Merkley rated #15, and the Leafs had a shot at #29....hard to believe they would pass on a value like that!!! It should be interesting to chart the careers of Merks and Kons and see just what the Leafs passed up...and who in the hell they eventually draft. I wonder if the Leafs might target the Spits 6'3 power forward McCool. He should go in and around the 3rd round, so he just might be a Leaf target with all their extra mid round picks.

WordsOfWisdom Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Did the Leafs really turn around and trade #29 and completely out of the first round with it? You can't script this stuff folks. I think the Leafs ownership is trying to sabotage their chances of winning. The mission statement is to be the Chicago Cubs of hockey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The shocked look on their faces when they moved back for the 2nd time....priceless. I will always treasure that moment.....ha ha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sekkes85 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 They already got Strome. They picked up a bunch of extra picks for day 2 in a very deep draft. It's not sexy but you get a lot more chances to hit on some guys that would normally be first rounders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
