#NYR 2025 Predictions in order of what I think is most likely to happen.
1. Buyers at the deadline.
2. Trade away our 2026 1st round pick
3. Trade away Chytil
4. Pick 12OA in the 2025 draft
5. Pick Anton Frondell
Several teams have approached Mintyukovโs agent @HockeyAgent1 about an offer sheet, and it seems likely at least one is formally offered today.
Mintyukov would then still need to decide if he wants to sign it.
We have tendered an offer sheet to Anaheim center Leo Carlsson. The offer is a five-year contract worth an average annual value (AAV) of $18M, which would require four of the Flyers first-round draft picks in each of the next four seasons as compensation. https://t.co/nfhD4h6nEc
@nhljersh The issue was what is always was. Goal scoring at 5v5. Dorofeyev should help...on the powerplay exclusively. Only real x factor for the team at 5v5 is going to be Smits if he makes it out of camp. Probably a wild card or 3rd in the metro this year at best because its so shit tho
@nhljersh I guess I just have a different outlook. I want my team to win sure, but I also want them to play good hockey. This team is not going to be playing good hockey. At best we are looking at the same style of play that we had coming out of the rebuild initially, i.e. pp merchants.
@nhljersh The issue is pointless success. If they aren't good enough to win it all why are we bothering trying to rush back into contention with exactly zero play driving forwards in the top 6? And non-existant depth at forward or defense? Like yippie we can be 1st round exits for 3 years.
