Hey look at that, another pick! The Flyers have broken from their pattern of taking only American wingers so far... to take an American defenseman. Hunter McDonald, welcome to Philadelphia!
WELCOME TO PHILLY!
With our sixth round pick (165th overall) in the 2022 #NHLDraft, we have selected defenseman Hunter McDonald. pic.twitter.com/hJPnuWKq57— Philadelphia Flyers (@NHLFlyers) July 8, 2022The Flyers really do seem to have found themselves a type in this draft, and they sure are rolling with it. McDonald is a big (6’3”, 207 pounds) defenseman who just closed out his second season in the USHL, where he put up 10 points in 33 games with the Omaha Lancers and four points in 22 games with the Chicago Steel.
