The 2024 NHL Entry Draft is only a few weeks away. With the Philadelphia Flyers selecting possibly four times in the first two rounds, this particular draft will be an important one in terms of adding talent to their prospect pool.

As the Flyers prepare to select 12th and either 31st or 32nd overall in the first round there’s a plethora of intriguing talents that could be available.

Specifically at 12th overall the Flyers may have the ability to select a number of impactful prospects such as Konsta Helenius, Cole Eiserman, Sam Dickinson, Carter Yakemchuk, Berkly Catton, Tij Iginla, Zayne Parekh and potentially others.

Even if certain prospects listed above are selected by other teams, with the options likely to still be available Philadelphia should have the opportunity to draft an impactful forward or defenseman at 12th overall.
