Prospect watching, as Flyers fans must be well aware, is not for the faint of heart. The Flyers have been doing well in their volume drafting approach of late, but that also means that there are just so many players spread out across the globe to keep track of, and it’s not an easy task. Players can get lost in the shuffle, and this is somewhat particularly true of Devin Kaplan, who’s been putting up sneaky quite solid seasons since he was drafted a couple years ago.
The Flyers’ 2022 third-round pick (69th overall), despite being somewhat shuffled down the lineup on a deeper Boston University team in his sophomore season, still managed to match his freshman year point total in three fewer games played, and while that might not read like a dominant year at the NCAA level, it’s a step that those who have watched him throughout the season would be pretty pleased with.
