flyercanuck Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 I agree with you we can't have 6 puck moving defenseman but do we have any in our pipeline? We need to draft offense skill guys, these defensive defenseman are easier to get in the FA market. Tired of them drafting these types of guys with huge potential. Rememer Coburn? Look where he is now. Kevin Marshall and MA Bourdon also.I do hope we are wrong on Morin but history of the Flyers developing these guys are not on our side let alone patience to wait for them to develop. We all are tired of watching them sign over the hill puck moving defenseman here or wouldn't want them to overpay for one in a trade.When we're playing the Pens in 5 years in a playoff game, a guy like Morin who by then could be 6'8" and 235 lbs and swift skating and junkyard dog mean is going to help us against Crosby and Malkin much more than an offensive defenceman.

flyercanuck Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 @Murry Craven ,our puck moving dman is 35, how about getting a young puck mover? Im not confident when you two offensive guys Timmo and Streit are old fossils. The plan here would be, draft a guy like Pulock ,then when Streit retires , Pulock steps in, all we did was prolong the inevitable once again by not drafting a skill dmanWe just had Hagg fall to us. Stop crying. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruxpin Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 I'm happy as a pig in #### that Hagg fell to us in the 2nd round. I'm kind of happy about the first two rounds. Now, explain to me the Ghoul pick, because I don't get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
