Am I upset they passed on Buium? Yes, but of the Fs left I liked Luchanko a lot. Picked up a 3rd & then got a 1st next yr in a better class. Gives them three 1sts, three 2nds, two 3rds next yr.
Thankfully these comments are a bit more optimistic than those of the “X” cesspool….nobody knows what a prospect turns into in a single day. His combine numbers are great and he fits a positional need. 1. See what you got. 2. Develop it. This regime still instills faith in sensible passionate fans.
Some fan bases are far more demanding than others. Our crowd is ridiculously whiny at times, and I think thats why we had championship drougts (all sports) for a while, before the phillies in 08, not just the orange). I'm filled with positivity, Jones, and Danny are both extremely respected, and intelligent.
The problem is that there was a better center available. Buffalo picked him right away after us. Luchenko doesn’t even look like he wants to play here. Danny has been saying best player available and then does this that’s why I’m pissed about this pick. To me it looks like he’s trying to be safe which is stupid.
@@sirfish9824 I respect what you are saying, but watch the draft interview with Luchanko! He's a 17 year old as composed as a 40 year old captain. He's a pretty fierce competitor according to the rankings. He values his consistency, gym routine, speed, hockey IQ. Centers need to be work horses (I know because I was one!). Other teams were grumbling over the flyers snatching him sooner than later :D I love the move, not like it! Danny managed to steal a 3rd round pick in the process. Go Flyers, stay positive, the future is looking bright.
@@crookedzebrarecordsyeah I’m starting to like him but I really wanted helenius. I think Danny liked jett because he’s a true center and can take faceoffs at a high level.
I dont get a player 4 years out but Biere has gotten 3 Russians here especially MM in 1 fking year when nobody thought it would happen. Flyers need to move players on roster
Luchanko was top 5 in 6 of 10 on ice drills as well as other physical drills (from what I read) so he’s definitely gonna be athletic enough. Also his speed is elite so he at least has an elite quality.
i was very skeptical of the pick initially, but i’ve warmed up to it. i really wanted dickinson or buium because i think it would have been smart to have targeted a #1 D in this draft and a center/centers next year. luchanko seems like a fantastic player and im very excited to see him in philly.
We coulda had helenius that’s what pisses me off. He’s played in a men’s league the past two years which is the third best league in the world. He’s a ppg in that league at 18 playing against grown men.
They took a big swing which I love. It's not nearly the reach people are thinking. Maybe he'd be there at 16? 17? Wheeler said there were 2 teams in the teens that wanted him. People are disappointed with not getting Buium and that's understandable. I'll just say that there were several other teams who went against the consensus with their picks on defensemen and thats why he slid. There's something teams noticed that made that happen.

I’m usually not overly negative but man I just don’t agree with that pick. If Zeev Buium or Helenius is available at 12 you have to take one. And Danny only got a 3rd rounder to not take Buium? Wtf
My thoughts are: for the most part none of the fans have seen any of these guys play other than highlights. We know nothing about Lochanko, so its just a wait and see deal here. But lets not bury the kid or the pick without giving him a chance to develop.
I know he regrets not giving up what CBJ wanted for Demidov but we can’t dwell on it we’re stocked for next 2 years on draft picks. But the talent might not be as good as these past 2 years only time will tell. 2026 it sounds like Gavin McKenna the guy to move heaven and hell for. We’ll see.
No, he wouldn't. There were at least two teams that were in the teens that said they had him locked and loaded and the Flyers snagging him was a big surprise. While, like the vast majority of fans, I don't have much scouting experience... I do have a lot of resources for people who have a lot of experience scouting. And most say that he has several qualities that cannot be taught that are top of the class of this draft, including speed and hockey IQ. Overall, he is a quality pick at 13 in a weak draft class. The Flyers talked about being short on quality centers in their system, but what they are really missing is top notch playmaking and top notch goal scorers. They have plenty of young defensemen already, and a few more in the system. They have a ton of 200 foot players. So another area he fits a need is his playmaking ability, with his speed and hockey IQ he will be a definite playmaking center.
This was an underwhelming first round for the Flyers at first glance. It seems they weren't excited about anyone left to them by 12 after not being able to trade up. I am optimistic about Jett, especially because he is definitively a center. But punting the Florida first round to next year is a bit demoralizing. They are definitely committed to the rebuild with this move, but how long are they intending to drag it out? They better start moving pieces like Konecny if this is their timeline.
Idk why they think we will be terrible next year. Unless we trade konecny we’re gonna be even better with Michkov. I don’t know if they even know how good Michkov really is.
First... all the negative Nellys have to remember this is a weak draft class. Second, like the vast majority of fans, I don't have much scouting experience... I do have a lot of resources for people who have a lot of experience scouting.

So another area he fits a need is his playmaking ability, with his speed and hockey IQ he will be a definite playmaking center. I WOULD have liked to see them make a move for Eiserman after getting Luchanko, because they need some serious scoring as well. And I think that would have been a pretty good tandem with those two guys.
I love how so called fans just start whining and beaking off cause they know more than NHL management team. Most people upset dont even watch these prospects they only basing their comments on what theyve heard from media. This was a weak draft class, next year better and Danny knows that. Hoping we can get some real talent next year. Lets go Flyers!!!
Go grab Boqvist off waivers. Sign Zadorov. Trade for 2 of these available players; Zegras, Necas, Pinto & K Johnson. Zeev didn’t want to play here right?
The Flyers picked the 20th rated North American player in the first round and the next team drafted the 3rd rated International player. Both centers. Why??
Stupidity, ignorance, and false pride. They think they're smarter thsn every other team. That's why we're still watching this EMBARRASSMENT at the draft and on the ice.
@@TradingIsLife420 According to the scouts he is a bottom six player. I guess they are looking for a top six player in the late rounds. Not good at math.
Would y’all rather go back to what we had for the last few decades? Stop complaining and let’s see what happens from here. Just build us a team that will compete Danny 👊
Really let us down Danny. Terrible draft. Cole was still there. We all wanted Demidov but we understand that's a big reach. Better make major moves tomorrow.
‘We all’ don’t have the information Danny and his team have. Funny how there always are millions of general managers while in fact there is only one who helds the responsibility.
People gotta remember this draft was below average and was known as that for 2 years up to it. Next years draft class is deeper and Danny knows this. So lets hope next year we can land a few great players.
Everybody on X is freaking out 😂 idiotic people that never believed in this rebuid in the first place and never gave it a chance, this draft was not deep they got thieir guy and now still have a chance to get the rest of the G trade right andworth it.👍Danny and Jonesy . Lets go Flyers
"The currency is worthless so i spend a lot of time in the bathroom with nosebleeds. We are renaming the team to the Michkov Flyers because, fra😮nkly we can't afford any young top 6 talent"
Now they'll pay 70 point ceiling Konecny who has 1 goal in 22 playoff games a 10m x 8year (or close) contract and pretend he can be Marchand or Tkachuk. 🤦🏻♂️🤡 Even IF Michkov BECOMES Kucherov instead of Stamkos, Hedman, Point, Sergachev, and Vasilevsky, you have who? Couturier, Konecny, Sanheim and Laughton? York looks like the best defensemen with the highest ceiling on our team and he has a middle pair ceiling. And this undersized, overrated, lack of talent, injury prone team hasn't even SEEN the very different extremely physical playoffs in hoe many years and counting? AND how many ELITE top draft prospects have they collected? One!? ONE!!! 🤦🏻♂️🤡🤡🤡 Have fun. I'll check back when they fire these guys and start rebuilding again because these 🤡s REFUSE to do it right because THEY THINK they know better than 90% of the other Stanley Cup winning franchises.

Meanwhile Sergachev was just traded to Utah for a prospect and a bag of pucks. CAP dump. This management is atrociously ridiculous. They haven't won a trade for a talented player in over a decade. It's utterly pathetic.
I'm not drinking the kool-aid here at all guys. I think this team is making big mistakes. I don't like Drysdale. Another injury prone defenseman who can't play defense. Gauthier was a HUGE loss with a very underwhelming return imho. Luchanko looks like a solid undersized two-way 3C. I see German Rubstov 2.0 with some speed. High floor low ceiling like every other player on our tram right now.🤷♂️ So if these drafts are THAT important to The Flyers then wtf? This team needs a LEGIT FUTURE 1C with ELITE scoring or play driving potential. Why no Rutger McGroarty from Winnipeg? Why no Trevor Zegras? Why no Shane Pinto? Or Why no Martin Necas? Or Draisetl? Not even a shot on a Turcotte eho probably still has more upside than Luchanko. 🤦🏻♂️ But more importantly why no McGroarty!!!! 🤦🏻♂️ And why does Briere look like he just did a rail off a bathroom sink and hit peice of glass before he walked out? 🤦🏻♂️ Man. No future 1C with any kind of elite potential. No future 2C either really. No number 1D. No star goalie. Overpaid aging guys eith declining play. Our BEST HOPE is that Couturier retires early at this point and takes Ristolainen and Sanheim with him! Because NOBODY is touching those contracts. Bad contracts out the a-hole. I just dont see anything different in trades, contracts, development, or drafts going on here than the last 3 failed GMs. This team needs to strip it down and rebuild CORRECTLY. They're just wasting another decade on PAINFUL Mediocrity here. But yahl keep "Trusting".😂 I heard a lot of that during Hextall and Fletcher too.🤦🏻♂️🤡
Exactly. These kids don’t understand we’ve heard trust the gm plenty of fucking times. And then they pick some random who’s not even a top 20 prospect with the 13th pick. We could have gotten way better value. Helenius was right there.
Injury prone? Drysdale got clocked head on. Let's not forget the Flyers were in 3rd place for a long time. How did that happen with this mediocre team that you mentioned??
BOOOOO. You had an amazing defenseman in buium fall into your lap, then you fumbled it for nothing. Then you traded a first for essentially nothing. this is holmgren, hextall and fletcher levels of bad. Being a fan of this team sucked today. burn the franchise please.
