Danny Briere did not need to lose for four straight seasons to load up on draft picks. They are also building a winning culture while developing young players.
Getting a feeling of deja vu with people questioning Demidov's skill because of his level of competition, much like folks did with Slaf at the Olympics and Makar at the World Junior Challenge. That is an unwise approach to evaluating a player. Watch the player - don't come up

I'm hearing that Flyers deal with Columbus could still happen.
The deal was for the Flyers to move up to the 4th overall pick.
Apparently, it was hung up on a pick, but I'm hearing it could still occur.
The Flyers are being aggressive

The Blackhawks strategy of letting the Flyers control the puck in there own offensive zone is smart because the Flyers cannot generate any “half court” offense. They are a score off of the rush team.
