What do the Flyers need? Well, let's see... they traded away two guys that most teams would kill for in Mike Richards and Jeff Carter, and they still ended up with 103 points. Yeah. It's rough to be in Philly these days, folks. Uh-huh, sure it is. Eveyone feels so bad for the Flyers.
Even the prospects in their system are well balanced. They have a few d-men scattered throughout, and are extremely deep on the right side, a position in which it is difficult to find super-stardom. The Flyers have the option, unlike many other teams, of truly just drafting the best available player on the board when they walk to the podium.
Who will that be? Let's vote.
