Flyers “back” in the draft ... add draft picks ...
The rumors that the Philadelphia Flyers had traded away the 6th and 14th overall pick has turned out to be completely untrue. Management has not commented on the rumor, but the facts are the draft picks are still very much the property of the Philadelphia Flyers. In addition management has hinted that they have added another top-15 draft pick and a top-50 pick in the entry draft.
Whether the assets will be used as trade chips or actual draft picks remains to be seen. With this franchise you never know ... strong rumors indicate that management doesn’t even know ...
The Flyers pro roster is still lacking a natural 2nd line center and a consistent goaltender. There is still work to be done before the season starts.
