Flyers Redraft: 2012

Coming from Minneapolis, Minnesota to our cross-state rivals in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, we find ourselves with a weak top 3 with Edmonton, again, picking first and taking Nail Yakupov, then Ryan Murray going second to the Columbus Blue Jackets, and Alex Galchenyuk going to Montréal third overall. The host team, Penguins, made a huge deal sending … Continue reading Flyers Redraft: 2012

Flyers Redraft: 2011

From Los Angeles, California to Minneapolis, Minnesota we see the Edmonton Oilers claim the 1st overall pick once again and select Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and then Gabriel Landeskog went to the Avalanche and Jonathan Huberdeau to Florida. This draft was a pretty good one as well. This was also when the news that the Atlanta Thrashers … Continue reading Flyers Redraft: 2011

What a Dougie Hamilton Signing Could Mean for the Flyers

Dougie Hamilton is a name that is being connected to the Flyers by a lot of fans. It makes sense, he would definitely fill that hole that Niskanen left, and then some. He is that elite RHD that they have been needing. He is an upcoming UFA this summer and is the marquee name on … Continue reading What a Dougie Hamilton Signing Could Mean for the Flyers

Flyers Redrafts: 2009

From Ottawa, Ontario to Montréal, Québec, we see another 1-2 punch of an elite center and elite defenseman. John Tavares would go first to Long Island, and Tampa Bay would help their rebuild by selecting Victor Hedman second. The Flyers had a pretty weak draft to be quite frank. This is another draft with only … Continue reading Flyers Redrafts: 2009

What Number Will These Players Wear?!?

Flyers Redraft: 2008

From Columbus, Ohio to Ottawa, Ontario the Senators actually get to host the draft they were told they would, and if they were upset about not hosting the draft of Sidney Crosby, well they would host the draft of defensemen. This draft was highlighted by 1st pick Steven Stamkos, but the draft produced some amazing … Continue reading Flyers Redraft: 2008

Flyers All Time Team

Compiling the best Flyers team ever by players during their time with the Flyers. 12 forwards, 6 defensemen, 2 goalies. These are not necessarily the best Flyers players ever, but in terms of the seasons they had with the Flyers this is the best team ever, in my opinion. I know that the Conn Smythe … Continue reading Flyers All Time Team

Andrew MacDonald was the Hero We Needed, and We Were Too Blind to See It

We all owe Andrew MacDonald an apology. Although he wasn't an offensive dynamo, he was defensively sound and one of the best leaders this team ever had. Going back to June 15, 2019 is heart breaking. The cornerstone of our defense was confusingly placed on unconditional waivers with the intention of buying him out. $5 … Continue reading Andrew MacDonald was the Hero We Needed, and We Were Too Blind to See It
