That's only top end talent. Which pool would you take? Then when you throw in the middling talent. Timmins completely destroys the Flyers. They really have nothing after those 4 players.

This doesn't even include Latendresse, D'agostini, O'byrne, Lapierre, Chipchura, White, and Weber who are all in the NHL.
For Philly: Nodl, Fraser are the only NHL players excluded from the above list.
So we're good all rounds, they find guys in first rounders, two of which from 2003 draft.
I choose MTL easily.
