Highly, highly doubt lindblom will be in the NHL next yeqr

I don't doubt it. If we lose Raffl, Read, or cousins to expansion somebody is going to have to take their spot. Leier isn't an NHL'er and Laughton might not make either. Lindblom is a real possibility especially since he already has some AHL games. He has more AHL experience than TK/Provy. I don't see Myers making the team though. AMac isn't going anywhere so he will be in there and hopefully Hagg/Morin/Sanheim make the jump and fill in the reamining spots with AMac, Ghost, Gudas. Manning can sub in and out for anyone; preferably AMac

Leier is definitely a player that can play on the 3rd or 4th line. He brings speed, a lacking skill for the Flyers. Lindblom is a very raw player, establishing the idea that he might not even be up at all next year. TK and Provorov didn't play in the AHL since they came straight from Juniors. Myers is still about two years away until he makes an impact on the defensive end. I don't know if you watch Flyers games religiously like I do, but the reason why McDonald's value is inflated is because he plays with Provorov, our best defenseman. Macdonald is complete and utter garbage and is deserving of a potential buyout.

Depending on how the Expansion Draft shakes out, Vegas might be forced to take a player with a higher cap hit (meaning Cousins will not be selected). However, Vegas should be more inclined to take Read since he carries a higher cap hit.

He is killing it in the SHL. He will def push for a spot. Following him this season I'd be surprised if he isn't on the Flyers next season.
