The Philadelphia Flyers currently hold 7th and 22nd overall in the NHL Draft, and the thought process on who they will draft has changed quite a bit.
A player that was brought to new light recently and seems to lead the charge is
Matvei Michkov, an 18-year-old Russian prodigy.
David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period, reported that the Arizona Coyotes are willing to move back in the Draft if the Philadelphia Flyers come calling � Obviously only if Matvei Michkov is still on the draft board.

This would lead to a draft capital where the Flyers may have to trade their 7th and 22nd overall to acquire the Coyotes pick at 6th.
It's surprising that the Flyers would be willing to move up just one spot for Michkov. I wonder if the Flyers could give the Coyotes something or talk to them about keeping their pick if they know for sure Matvei Michkov will be there at 7th. But I've never heard of anything like that before, who knows may be Danny Briere has some magic under his sleeves and can get a sweet deal to acquiring who they please.
The Philadelphia Flyers NHL Draft should be very exciting this year and could bring in a lot of key pieces for the team, especially if a draft capital is in the mix.
