Philadelphia Flyers
The Flyers’ first home game in Philadelphia will be against the New Jersey Devils on Oct. 9.
The Flyers have the 11th overall pick in the NHL Draft on Friday. The 11th pick can offer a great opportunity for teams to build their prospect system and get a piece for the future.
With the NHL Draft getting underway in just a few hours, here are five targets for the Flyers at 11th overall.
The draft still marks an important offseason event for the Flyers. But this year, it is different. It is Chuck Fletcher’s first draft as GM of the Flyers. And that means a new approach to the draft for the Flyers.
Kevin Durso and Matt Mastrogiovanni take a closer look at the offseason moves made by the Flyers so far and look ahead to the 2019 NHL Draft.
It’s been a busy week for Flyers GM Chuck Fletcher and there may be more to come, but the latest moves to the team’s roster have already shown the immediate willingness to improve the on-ice product.
Could the Flyers trade the 11th overall pick? GM Chuck Fletcher is not actively looking to trade a fairly high draft pick, but he is not opposed to moving it for the right price.
Kevin Hayes signed with the Flyers just over two weeks after they acquired his rights in a trade. Between him and the additions of Matt Niskanen and Justin Braun, Hayes believes the Flyers could do damage and soon. “I think Chuck and Paul are putting together a team that can do some damage and ultimately win the Stanley Cup.”
The Flyers have the 11th overall pick in the NHL Draft, and throughout the week, we have looked at some of the top forwards in the draft starting with centers on Monday and wingers on Tuesday. Today, we look at some of the top defensemen available in the draft.
With less than a week before the open negotiation period opens to free agents, the Flyers are nearing a deal with Kevin Hayes. According to a report from TSN’s Bob McKenzie, the deal will be for seven years and worth $50 million, an average annual value of $7.14 million.
