Thank you so much to Rusty from Anaheim Calling for taking the time to answer our questions about the Flyers’ newest player, Jamie Drysdale! Rusty can be found on Twitter @thehockeyboomer.
Broad Street Hockey: Jamie Drysdale was selected with the 6th overall pick in the 2020 draft. What were the skills that made him a top pick, and what was the consensus among Ducks fans? Did it feel like the right selection, or a missed opportunity?
Rusty: I think it was the right pick for sure. All the talk around the draft that year was that the Ducks were going to take one of Drysdale or Jake Sanderson and when Sanderson went 5th to the Senators that about made that choice on it’s own.
