Could This David Krejci-Like Prospect Be the Flyers’ Hidden Gem?
The Flyers have needed more centers in their system, particularly ones with size and playmaking abilities to eventually complement Matvei Michkov. O’Brien’s prowess on the power play should also be appealing to the Flyers. The club has sported an NHL-worst 13.7 power play percentage over the last four seasons combined.
There might be a few more safer picks than O’Brien at No. 6, but the Flyers have shown they’re willing to take swings on talent. O’Brien’s room for growth is there and his upside would be a nice addition to the team’s prospect pool.
