Hey, everybody, how you doing? Well, that's good. Welcome to PHLY Flyers, the shootout

broadcasting live here at the X-Finity Studio. I'm Bill Mats. That's Kelly Hinkle. And we have

been having so much fun with mailbag questions. We figured, why not wrap it up with a little

bonus content for you? Because, Kelly, I saved this one for you because I thought you would have strong thoughts about it.

I really thought you would. And it is from Pachianke Patsy. He asks, or she, I don't know. It looks like a guy in the picture, but I can't tell what the picture is.

It might be like John Stevens. Yeah, it might be like, it might be Howie Roseman.

I can't tell from here.

Would you rather have Zev Bouillon, Gabe Perrault, and James Hagen's, or Porter Martone, Jet

Lucchenco, and Oliver Bonk?

Now, it is an interesting question

because these are players,

the Flyers, directly chose their current prospect pool over.

And I think everyone has a pretty high opinion

of Ziv Bouillon, Gabe Perot, and James Higgins.

The fact that it's a three-for-three,

like, would you swap it straight up? Because Hagen's and Martone to me, I was like, I don't really care. I'll take them both. I kind of like Martone a little more because I think it's a guarantee his game translates. Yep. But if they had gone Higgins, I'd be like, hell yeah, we got the guy who probably could have gone number one.

Right.

Like, he was the presumed number one a year ago. And then suddenly didn't have the superstar year in the NCAA as a freshman. Right. So he fell. And he fell pretty far. Pretty far. And the flyers ended up going. A few teams passed over him, yeah. and the flyers end up going with Porta Martone, who I think I liked more, but it is a debate.

Now, Luchenko and Bouyam, that was a, at the draft party, a groan-inducing choice. When they have Booyum, he's there, trade the pick one slot.

Minnesota takes him,

and then the flyers come right back and take Jet Lucenko instead.

And then the Bonk-Paro thing,
