Leonard and the Flyers have been linked together pretty heavily, so I don't think their's much of a chance they would trade down if he's still available.

9th and 17th packaged together for 7th is the only way I move for Detroit. That’s my ask to back off of 1 of Leonard, Benson, Smith, Michkov.

Obviously depends on Montreal, they'll take either Reinbacher or Benson. Arizona takes Smith at 6th, and also Mitchkov goes 4th. We all can agree Montreal drafts need over best player (look at kotkenami and slaf) But I also do think Philly maybe goes D wherever they pick.

I respectfully disagree with the flyers fans above. I think it is a good way for DET to add another top end talent to the pool. PHI definitely needs to add more quantity to the pool and it is a great way to do that. I think at 9, things may still work out how they want or they can move down to 11-12 if it doesn’t

Philly has no 2nd round picks in this years or next years, I think trading the 17th and 9th is an overpayment, but trading 2 of 3 thirds I am more comfortable with

This is so bad....so bad

PHI isnt gonna do that.

Why are we moving back to get rid of a meaningless contract?

Not enough for Cat.

Just get rid of Veleno? What a stupid take.

I believe the Hawks decline. That's a hefty 3-yrs of a contract to take on. Plus, the Hawks wouldn't be moving up 16 combined slots for the picks, as their TBL picks are #19 and #51 (not #21 and #53, as you had in your calculation.) Sorry...

Calculations are my fault, replace Lightning pick with Rangers pick to start off with, and could also throw in that 3rd rounder Detroit would get from the Flyers (Rangers pick) might be quantity instead of quality at that point though

If the Flyers take a D in an offensive heavy draft I will just stop supporting them lol. They need to draft the best player available and at 7 that will be a forward

9 and 17 is an overpayment but that’s what it will take imo when a player like Benson, Leonard, Smith, Michkov will be available at 7. What will some 2nds or 3rds do? Odds of hitting a star in the 1st round are exponentially higher and the Flyers don’t need more middle 6 guys that they keep finding in the 2nd, 3rd, 4th rounds they need stars that overwhelmingly get drafted in the 1st round

There’s just no reason for them to move done 2 spots for two 2nds. Just take the best player at 7 unless someone overpays you like 9th and 17th. If not keep it simple and just draft in ur spot. The 2nds aren’t worth it.

I still the Hawks would probably decline, as the key item would be only moving up two spots in the first round (#19 to #17). The delta between the Rangers and Red Wings 2nd round picks would be larger, of course, and the third could be meaningful as it's a deep draft this year. Just don't know if it's enough to take on that three-year, bad contract. It's making me think, though... Good effort! Cheers

Ottawa has too many left shot LD already. They wouldn't want another one. Ottawa will want a bit more than that for the cat anyways.

I guess I'm the only Flyers fan who wouldn't mind this trade. I get what the others above are saying about not wanting to trade down unless we get 17 but if we did trade down I would think this is the best offer we get (Unless theres a guy a team reaaaaally likes)

Flyers prospect pool lacks high-end talent, so I don't think this is too realistic. Two second rounders would be nice considering we don't even have one, but I'd prefer to keep #7.

I understand where you're coming from because we don't have a second, but I feel like this is a draft you don't trade down in. Flyers prospect pool needs high-end talent.

Yeah basically just if we would be willing to move down (Maybe the guy we wanted is gone or something) that this would be an acceptable offer. I definitely don't move down in this draft though unless like previously said we get another 1st with it

Yea I like that thought process. Leanard or Benson seem ideal at 7 (I'm also optimistic about Michkov falling because of his contract situation), but if we can't get one of those guys for whatever reason, I'm open to trading down.

I'm going to be in the middle of the two sides here. 17 and 9 for 7 is way too much. However, the deal as currently constructed isn't quite enough. Not only that the Flyers don't gain picks just equity and they need to gain quantity. It's only two spots but those are a big two spots. A couple of years ago the Coyotes gave the Flyers a 2nd round pick to move up from 14 to 11. Make it 9 and 43 for 7 and I think that's fair for both sides. Otherwise the Flyers decline.

If we’re moving up two spots and giving up pick 19, then there’s no reason for us to take Chairot
