Best time to trade is when teams lose out on guys in free agency. |

It’s at least nice to hear he “attempted” to be aggressive. You would hope in a “rebuild” even if that term is just for their marketing team, they would be…: - landros 2
Nan, not a rebuild. Would a rebuilding team stockpile 1st and 2nd picks? Oh wait, they would. |

A retooling team would get extra 1st round picks but also spend over the cap ceiling, keep veterans around because they're so good for the "culture", and try and sneak into the playoffs.
Did people already forget that Hextall had two first rounders in 2017 and 2018? We've seen this all before.

looking currently and in the future, not sure how anyone can really put a positive spin on this team/organization.
they have 1 player to get exited over who may be a star. that is it. No end in sight to turn this around from my view |

Flyers trade Sean Walker, effectively killing their chances to make the playoffs -- Nope, not a rebuild
Flyers trade their 32 pick in the 2024 draft and now have 3 1st round and 3 2nd round picks in a deep 2025 draft -- Nope, not a rebuild
Flyers sign Eric Johnson to be effectively their 8th defenseman -- Nope, clearly not a rebuild
Got it!
You know who Zeev Buium reminds me of? Shayne Gostisbehere -- clearly this team will never learn - jd250
You forgot a few.
Sign Seeler at 30 for 4 years.
Tried to sign Sean Walker before they moved him.
Why do you assume KJ is # 8?
As far as Buium….Gostisbehere? Did anyone ever say Ghost was an above average elite skater? the Flyers “reached for Lachanco….I’m not sure it’s being disputed except by the Local media and guys like you. A team rebuilding does not “reach” in the 1rst round. They draft kids like Buium.
After watching how they treated this years 1rst round how can anyone have confidence in this management team with three picks next year….guys on here we’re hoping for the Flyers not to make the playoffs this year so they could get a better pick? Then he took a guy they could have got had they made the playoffs anyways?lol.
The organization is selling Briere as this young, smart executive…I see a guy who hasn’t accomplished zilch and has made a bunch of questionable decisions that will (frank) this team going forward….they talk that it’s a rebuild but they haven’t made any move that say rebuild except the ones they were forced into. |

2025 looks amazing for their picks, but don't most rebuilding teams try to do that for multiple years while they shed vets that don't fit future plans?
They kind of did that for 2024, but technically they just delayed a 1st to the next year (which I love the deal even if it's just a chance to get a better pick in a deeper draft). When all is said and done the 2024 draft was a waste other than adding low end depth.
Do you see them doing the same in 2026 like they are doing in 2025? One year stockpiling isn't really a rebuild unless you hit on just about everything.

If somehow the Flyers won the cup in 6 some here would complain we didn't win it in 5 |

The Flyers will be at 50 years without a Cup in less than 12 months time.
Two former Flyers goalies just got their first Cup, while the goalie the Flyers pinned their hopes on is out of the league awaiting trial. |

Wait did Toronto really go out and sign Matt Murray again after having him on LTIR all last year? I knew the injuries were a lie.
No wonder they don't win. |

Only team that is clearly worse than the Flyers I see so far...Calgary. - Glak18
Calgary had a pretty successful draft though. They accumulated some pretty nice prospects with high ceilings. Zayne Parekh, Matvei Gridin, Andrew Basha, Henry Mews, Luke Misa and Jacob Battaglia are all pretty great picks. |

Let me know when they get close to contending for a Cup. Maybe then you will have a valid statement. Until then...

Yeah bunch of whiners complaining about an organization that has been making poor decisions for decades and not making excuses for them.
Think positive that will allow the team to make logically sound decisions!
I'm sure no one complained when the Flyers won the cup last time, but they were also distracted too when WWI was going on....

How good Carolina was the last few years is an outlier. Waddell is trash. |

That is a pretty decent crop there, but that's not helping them the next couple years. They look horrible, SJ horrible.

Seeing a lot of teams signing players today and improving while the Flyers remain dormant as they stated they would be. This will make it tougher for the Flyers to have a good season next year, which is better for their draft positions. I wish the Flyers would trade some veteran players also, to give themselves even better odds of finishing in the bottom 10, and maybe even the bottom 5. |

Bottom 5 is the preference. Even if the Flyers finish in last it doesn't guarantee them a #1 pick, but does guarantee a top 3 pick. That's why placement is important.
