I'm gonna post the top 10 out of the 50 prospects they recognize this year...and yeah, there is some Flyer relevance here. 1)Dylan Strome - Yotes 2)William Nylander - Leafs 3)Mitch Marner - Leafs 4)Ivan Provorov - Flyers 5)Mikko Rantanen - Ave's 6)Zach Werenski - Jackets 7)Ilya Samsonov - Caps 8)Pavel Zacha - Devs 9)Kyle Connor - Jets 10)Christian Dvorak - Yotes Every year, the scouts combine to name the top prospect... Players receiving votes... 1)Dylan Strome - 5 first place votes, 4 2nd place, 1 3rd place, 1 4th place...no 5ths, no 6ths.. 2)William Nylander - 5 first place votes, 1 2nd place votes, 2 3rd place....no 4th place, 1 fifth place, no 6th place 3)Mitch Marner - no 1sts, 4 2nds, 2 3rds, 1 4th place, no 5th, 1 6th place... 4)Ivan Provorov, 1 1st place, 1 2nd place, 2 3rd place, 2 4th place, 1 5th place, 1 6th place. 5)Mikko Rantanen - no 1st, 1 2nd, no 3rds, 3 4ths, 1 5th, 1 6th. 6)Zach Werenski - no 1st, no 2nds, 1 3rd, 2 4th place, no 5th, 3 6th place. As you can see, a lot of scouts think very highly of Ivan....the very start of the line of thinking that some teams messed up large by passing him over. I'm sure this topic gets touched on in the future....lol. Although he was not a concensus #1, Ivan was the only prospect that got a vote in every spot from 1st to 6th....which is kinda cool. Everyone thought he belonged in the top 6. Ivan will get his chance next season on the Flyers. There is ZERO chance this kid comes to camp next year and DOESN'T out shine the like of Streit, Schultz, Manning and Mcdud! ZERO!!!! In fact i pray that the 4 i mentioned above are gone traded or released or whatever....just reboot...and go from there. Ghost, Del Zotto, Ivan and Gudas who be there 4 to start this club around.

I'm a big Gudas fan. I hope when all the kids make it, the Flyers find a way to keep Gudas in the top 6. Very nice physicality, and a lot of people don't realize, he is only 25 right now. He does turn 26 in early June, but still, relatively young. He's only been in the NHL for 4 years, so this is a guy who can still evolve, work on things like positioning etc....we need his hard nosed edge he brings to the ice. I'm willing to have one of th top 6 not elite fast, just to get his toughness and anger into the line-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OccamsRazor Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Provorov finishes even and no points in the Wheat Kings 6-4 win take a 2-0 lead in the series. Meyers finishes -2 no points in their loss. Series is 1-1. I forgot Doves Mcfalls was playing for the Sea Dogs their series is 1-1. I guess because he has been injured most of the year.

OccamsRazor Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Philippe Myers leads Huskies to comeback victory in game one of QMJHL Final http://sonsofpenn.com/flyers/philippe-myers-rouyn-noranda-huskies-game-one-highlights/ Myers led all Huskies with four shots on goal, including a crucial game-tying goal and then an assist on the game-winning goal with just over one minute remaining in the third period. He has two goals and 11 assists for 13 points with a +16 rating in 16 games. I was reading Bill's comments this morning saying if they could do the drat over this kid would be a 1st round pick at worst a 2nd. Sweet find for Hextall.

OccamsRazor Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Wheat Kings Take Game 1 In Overtime 3-2 The 2016 WHL Championship Series kicked off on Friday night in Brandon, Manitoba as the Brandon Wheat Kings and Seattle Thunderbirds started their quest to become the WHL’s 50th Season Champions. Tanner Kaspick netted the overtime winner as the Brandon Wheat Kings defeated the Seattle Thunderbirds by a score of 3-2 in Game 1 of the 2016 WHL Championship Series. The Wheat Kings outshot the Thunderbirds 10-0 in the extra frame. Game Summary As the first period saw both teams trade chances back and forth, the Wheat Kings opened the scoring late as Reid Duke took advantage of a turnover from Seattle to give the Wheat Kings a 1-0 lead and put the sellout crowd into a frenzy. On a short-handed rush, Donovan Neuls slid the puck by a sprawling Jordan Papirny to tie the game at 1-1 midway through the second period. Ryan Gropp makes a nifty forehand-backhand move to give Seattle a 2-1 lead just 28 seconds into the third period. The Wheat Kings responded as Nolan Patrick jumped on the loose puck and snapped it by Bow. Game 1 was all tied up at two goals apiece. Hand-eye coordination by Tanner Kaspick led to this unique, but incredible overtime winner for the Brandon Wheat Kings.Another look at the overtime winner. Brandon outshot Seattle 10-0 in overtime and by a 42-33 margin overall while both Clubs finished 1/5 on the power play. Game 2 of the 2016 WHL Championship Series goes on Saturday night at 7:30pm CT/6:30pm MT.

Just a thought i think Gordon underachieved big time this year with the Phantoms. Hard to win when you have nothing on the forward lines. Injuries took a huge toll too. Quite simply, the talent isn't there....yet. Same problem as the big club - they are too small to slug it out with the big bruisers. And I still think people are vastly over-rating Morin. To me he's just another Ollie Lauridsen or Joey Mormina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me he's just another Ollie Lauridsen or Joey Mormina. ....and yet, every scout who has seen Morin this year has said that they were very impressed at how he's worked out some of the kinks in his game (especially on the technical side of things). With added weight and muscle to his frame, he's going to be that much more of a monster to play against. You want to see someone who looks like Lauridsen or Mormina as a 20 year old in the AHL? Look at some of the tapes of Zdeno Chara. And scouts will tell you that Morin is miles ahead on the development chart than Chara was at the same age.
