230 – Assessing The Flyers Prospect Pyramid
The Flyers prospect pool is under a lot of scrutiny as fans desperately look for top prospects to rise out of the system. Outside of Matvei Michkov there do not seem to be any certain bets, but there is a lot of talent that can be leveraged to improve the team and some names that could end up surprising people on their upside. NHL elite talent can be found anywhere throughout the draft, not just at the very top. Infact, history shows that to be the case and outside of the top two picks in a draft, there are no guarantees.
While Michkov is the pinnacle of the Flyers prospect talent pool, other players like Jett Luchanko, Oliver Bonk, Denver Barkey, Emil Andrae, Alexei Kolosov, Carson Bjarnason, and Yeagor Zavragin all bring very interesting upside that can be easily brushed off as middle of the road, but could also surprise people to eventually becoming upper echelon talent. There are also other intriguing names like Alex Bump, Jack Bergland, Spencer Gill, Samu Toumaala, Hunter McDonald, Heikki Ruohonen, and others that could end up being impact players at the NHL level and that does not include the other guys in the system who still have yet to show enough to enter that conversation, but also garner much interest in there continuous progress. Essentially, it’s really too early to tell what the Flyers have in their prospect pool.
On this episode of Gettin’ Gritty Wit It, Yariv and Vasili go through the recent tragedy to the hockey community regarding the Gaudrau brothers, the upcoming Flyers vs Rangers rookie games, and a full in depth walkthrough of all of the prospects in the Flyers’ system and how to stack up in a prospect pyramid. This is a great way to prepare for the Flyers rookies coming into town to compete against the New York Rangers rookies.
