Philadelphia Flyers fans are looking forward to the 2018 NHL Entry Draft. Flyers general manager Ron Hextall always has some tricks up his sleeve at the draft, and he very well likely could make a move again with two first round picks. The team currently holds the 14th and 19th pick, and while Hextall has usually made moves to move up in the draft, there's a chance this time around that he could move down. The Flyers also have two picks in the fifth and seventh rounds so Hextall will have plenty of options to move around. It's unlikely Hextall makes a bold move like last year when he traded Brayden Schenn away to the St. Louis Blues which got him a pair of first round picks in return. The Flyers GM mentioned to NBC Sports Jon Boruk that he'll be meeting with his scouting staff extensively over the next couple of weeks as they finalize their draft board.
