Called this pick back in may after buttons list dropped. Sometimes I feel like Flyer fans miss a lot of whats going on. Like its impossible to think Jett wasnt on others lists. Look at Sennecke, barely anyone had him going #3, they passed on Demidov to get him. Guys rise for a reason, and drop. Look at Zeev.....what made teams pass on him and take everyone of the other "core" dmen available? Clearly, other teams saw something that made him less desirable in comparison to the other guys. Maybe for once, in 2025, we can finally line up a vault of picks when the draft is actually loaded. Lots of draft capital to make a splash, my guess is they're more likely to pull the big triggers for next year vs this passed one. Waiting sucks, but this makes sense based on where they likely feel we are in our timeline.
Suddenly, everyone's acting like DB and his scouts have no idea or sense about hockey and judging talent and potential. At the same time, this management has accomplished so much for this team in such a short amount of time. They are the ones who have been observing those prospects' development and character all year, not us. I say we should relax, trust DB's instincts and abilities, and hope for the best.
We’ve been told since 2023 that the 2024 draft was gonna be a week draft. A crap shoot after the first few picks; which the Flyers weren’t in on. After the first five or six; picks are six of one half a dozen of the other. Danny B took a less than draft and punted with a newly stocked cupboard of future picks. I would call this an average draft given the circumstances. There’s a fair amount of luck in the draft and you can’t win them all.
"You don't have a crystal ball. You can't look at a kid and predict his future any more than I can. I've sat at those tables and listened to you tell those parents "When I know, I know. And when it comes to your son. I know." And you don't. You don't."
I was really disappointed they didn't draft Buium but I understand they had reservations about his size, the college and agent factor could've been the reason he dropped in the first place. Jett's skating, age, progression throughout the season, work ethic and when you watch his post draft interview you can tell why the Flyers loved him. I'm excited to see him progress.
@@slaypool next year's draft has way better center prospects. If they were gonna acquire 3 firsts next year anyway, they should've went best available.
1. I wanted Buium, but I can understand that the Flyers didn’t prefer him. 2. However, Buium was clearly in demand, and there must have been multiple teams whose eyes got wide when he dropped to 12 AND the Flyers were willing to trade the pick. And all they got was a 3rd next year for handing him over to another team. I can’t believe there wasn’t one team who didn’t offer more - another pick, a higher pick, or willingness to take a cap dump.
The Flyers has no choice to be in Trevor Zegras derby. I want a Flyers put Travis Konecny in a deal with Anaheim. That 's a time to trade Konecny 27 years old and.with the rebuilding process . At 30 years old the best of Konecny has behind of.him. Go trade Konecny in a deal with Zegras
They obviously know more about projecting players than any of us, and this front office has bought enough trust with me for this pick. I’m happy they had the balls to go with their guy and not the consensus pick if they didn’t like it
CHLers and European Pro route players can run out their clock, but they rarely do for different reasons. CHLers would be stupid to turn down an ELC, keep playing junior, and risk injury and never getting that money if their goal is to re-enter the draft/become a UFA. European Pro guys typically don't care where they start in the NHL, as long as they play in the NHL. They don't want to spend much time in the A, so if they get stuck there for very long, they go back home to make more money & live in a familiar culture/language. It's pretty simple with a little nuanced thinking.
If there is one guy I trust when it comes to the front office, it's Brent Flahr. This guy DOESN'T miss. He knows his stuff and has not let me down yet.
they were never drafting kurt overhardt's college player. literally never. think about it. some will say they could just trade him. life isnt a video game
change the rules so college kids can't just refuse to sign and then sign wherever they want too. no other drafted prospects can do that. so why a special rule for college kids?
We don’t really know what Matvei Michkov is gonna do when he comes. The fans problem is that the Flyers struggle drafting prospects good enough to lift this team up to be a contender and we are tired of this team being irrelevant. Drafting Jett Luchanko at 13 when nobody thought he should go there just scares the fans into thinking same ol same ol
@nickb8939 that's how you defend yourself okay then have a good one. Jett is ridiculously young and dropped 74 points in 68 games as one of the youngest in the draft if not youngest. So if he wasn't eligible until next year he would EASILY be top 10 pick so tell me again how this is a horrible pick. You probably wanted a small d man that'll give flyers a VERY small d core. And tell me how that translates in the playoffs
Fck that I do NOT want any players that have the same agent as Quitter so I agree with Danny!!! The only thing I did not like about the Luchenko trade is NOT the fact tjhey passed on Helenius who I personally wanted BUT is because the could have traded down from #12/#13 to get him OR could have traded up from #32 to get him thereby attaining Luchenko at a better value!!! It is NOT because I wanted another player!!! Similarly,, if I were a Ducks fan, I would be livid with the Senneke pick NOT bc I liked someone else but because if you study the mocks you can feel relatively confident to tarde down a few picks and thereby gain great value and get Senneke AND attain tremendous assets along the way!!! This is why I was upset at the Luchenko pick there!!!
@@broadstbullies9342 If he too starts with that Millenial Entitlement BS and all his weak-ass agent does is to follow suit and also ghosst the organization, then hell fcking yea...GOOD RIDDANCE!!!
Emotionally reactive fans: “reach” “Danny blew it” “Jett’s a bad pick” Those same fans after watching one highlight video: “okay I was wrong” Maybe just do your research before you react everyone
Grab Boqvist off waivers ASAP!We need a highly skilled center to complement Matvei. Zegras is available & they would be insane together. We should also trade for either Necas, Pinto or Kent Johnson for the second line. Signing Zadorov for Drysdale would be smart.
The attitude of "who are you to question Briere" is ridiculous. Some of us have been watching this sport long enough and following these players long enough to form our own opinion instead of just shilling every move the front office makes. Briere shouldn't be immuned to criticism. If people don't like the pick, they have every right to voice their displeasure withiut being talked down to because they're not an NHL gm.
There was talk during the playoffs, and I can’t remember the analyst, about every competitive team having a big defenseman who can play big minutes. Flyers are in the market for that and will address it in free agency since they couldn’t in the first round of this draft.
Luchanko is fine. Its kicking 32 down the road and getting nothing extra for doing so that really annoyed me. You better hope next year the board falls their way or this is a huge mistake.

Should've drafted Eiserman and bet on his upside as a goal scorer instead of taking a role player.
They were always going to pick a center which this prospect pool desperately needed 🤣
@@slaypool next year's draft has way better center prospects. If they were gonna acquire 3 firsts next year anyway, they should've went best available.
Flyers have no centers. Remember when everyone hated the York pick instead of Caufield? Hows that looking now. Relax. Mock drafts are for clicks.

Yeah they won with like 3 Jett Luchanko's

Buium and Perreault will likely be much better than Luchanko and Bonk, but we will keep track of both pairs for years to come.
Love the pick. Luchanko has a lot more potential than helenius. Buium would have been solid but I’m sure there was a good reason flyers passed on him
"Boo-yum". That's how we're pronouncing it for now.
change the rules so college kids can't just refuse to sign and then sign wherever they want too. no other drafted prospects can do that. so why a special rule for college kids?
I've seen multiple sites give the Flyers a C- for the draft I have no idea who these players are so we'll see
really? thye pick people because they have a cool name?
4:52 they have dudes whose entire what now??
Jett is so unimpressive its fucked
I think Luchanko's speed was the key thing. Danny is building a speed racer team.
😅😅😂
Ohhhkayyy so even more super duper speedy elite muckers and grinders🤷🏻♂️

Lmfao do you think we have 30MM or cap space available?
Where they finished this year hurt the draft for a rebuilding team.
It’s concerning bc Jett wasn’t in the top 15 of any mock draft I saw leading up 😂
Danny's a dope
Because he's like the youngest in the draft. It's not concerning. If he was 3 weeks younger he would be top 10 if not 5 next year
