The Philadelphia Flyers could possibly have the chance to right their wrong at the top of the 2022 NHL Draft. With the fifth-overall pick a couple years back, the Flyers selected Cutter Gauthier and we all know what happened after that. Some miscommunication (to put it very lightly) led to the top draft pick getting traded for Jamie Drysdale and now the Flyers were left in a funk.
Directly after Gauthier was selected, the Columbus Blue Jackets made their pick and it was Czech defenseman David Jiricek. The 6-foot-3, right-handed blueliner was seen as a blue-chip prospect guaranteed to get top opportunity everywhere he went.
