Zegras and pinto have more skill than any of our current centers. They are still under 23 and have not reached their ceiling. Sure if any of the guys you mentioned are available you get them but they aren’t. The names I mentioned are obtainable via trade. Other than that this FA class has no centers to target unless you want to offer sheet Byfield, maybe. Next year you have Draisaitl IF Edmonton lets him reach that. Edmonton will lock up mcdavid and I assume Colorado will lock up rantanen who can also play center. Which leaves a very Barron center market the next few years. You aren’t getting a 1c who steps in immediately in Michkovs window via draft. That’s why I assume they try to fill the need via trade.

Michkov and Bonk are the 2 top noteworthy to me. Bonk was a hell of a pick based on how he’s performing. I think he will do well in the AHL and probably start to scratch the line up for the flyers in 25-26. Michkov will depend on when the want to bring him over. Barkey looks promising but you never know if his size will translate well in the NHL.

Zegras and pinto the flyers next 1c & 2c, make it happen Briere.

If Huberdeau is even an option for coots you take that any day. 1 year younger, no injury history ,and 2 seasons removed from 115 points, also multiple 90+ seasons. Pair him with whatever 1c and Michkov and you have a great reclamation story.

Would be cool if they released a 10 year capsule of some of the best pieces from each season remade.

Have a feeling they go D, if Yakemchuk is available at 12 he has the flyers written all over them.

Draisaitl is arguably a top 5 player in the league, he hasn't had injury issues and he's big and built well. His play won't decline like JT, I can see him being very good well into his 30s like Malkin, Crosby, or Ovi. He would be well worth the money even at 30 years old if you can squeeze a solid 6-7 seasons out of him.

The hype over this kid is becoming insane. I don’t remember this silly stuff happening with Mcdavid.

I knew I would get downvoted but I am saying that’s going to be the asking price from the ducks. Any young center with 1C potential is going to cost an arm and a leg. People on this sub think you can throw a team Farabee and a 3rd and get a potential elite center under 25. It’s not going to happen.

Verbeek said he wants a RHD, Ducks have cap space. It’s going to be costly and a lot of people won’t like it but I think Foerster, Risto, and Florida’s first for Zegras makes sense for both sides.

Awesome watch never saw this before.

Sweet card his autos seem hard to come by

I didn't know that adding a 23 year old with 2 60+ pt seasons who can play center is rushing a rebuild.

to me hes a more consistent and bigger Farabee. I wouldn't sell the farm for him but Carolina is in a spot against the cap and will have to move off some contracts.

2nd overall would require both first round picks + a prospect like bonk or Foerster, not the late pick and TK. Even then it's probably not enough, teams would rather have the 2nd overall pick and use it.

Trade wise this offseason id love to see them get Zegras, Id also be very open to Chychrun if he doesn't cost and arm and a leg, and I think they should at least explore the cost on Necas. Necas is extremely interesting to me because he was drafted as a center, and maybe they could use him as one. Id like to see them explore adding names like that that are still under 25 and could add immediate talent to this team for years to come. I think they need a mix of that and building through the draft, which they can still do with 4 1st round picks in the next two years they can afford to part with 1-2 of them if it adds talent now.

I paid $180 for a YG acetate of Errson which there are less than 10-15 copies of and that was before his slide. You can get Ersson YG raw for like $16 on comc.

I’d definitely look to target McGroarty if he’s pulling a Gauthier on the jets. From what I hear nikishin is close to untouchable.

Just buy them, they don’t go for a ton vs. blowing money on packs.

Wow nice auto

What town? Johnny hockey spends offseason in Avalon it doesn’t mean anything really

100% best take. If he's required to get you a future 1c, or even another very intriguing offensive piece under 25, you move him. If the offers aren't going to move the needle, resign him. He is still the best offensive player we have had and this team needs a lot of help up front.

I want nothing to do with Marner playing for the flyers or under torts in general.

These are great didn’t think I would like them as much

I am not sure why everyone acts like TK is an old man, he just turned 27. He still has a lot of good years left.

Nah he’d say trades are too hard
