I just checked: they have one third rounder - #78, originally a Sharks pick.
- they traded their own 2nd to Tampa Bay in the Meszaros deal
- they traded the Kings 2nd (from the Richards deal) to Dallas in the Grossmann deal
- they traded the Panthers 2nd (from the Versteeg deal) to Tampa Bay in the Kubina deal
- they traded their own 3rd to Phoenix in the Bryzgalov deal
So they only have a third from the Versteeg deal from Florida (originally from San Jose). The 2nd from the Kubina trade is a conditional pick though - it could either be 2012 or 2013, so there's a chance that the Flyers can keep this pick.
Would you like to tell us all where these other 29 teams would likely target this player so we have an idea?
This isnt a first round pick, you can easily discuss where there is risk/reward in taking this player in the later rounds without it sounding ridiculous

Well that's like saying 29 other teams were interested in Ferland, Granlund or Wotherspoon.
It's obvious that other teams want them, but after the draft leaves the first round it becomes a discussion of where that player should be taken.

Leipsic is projected to be drafted in the 4th round. Ranked 114th among North American skaters by NHL Central Scouting. Would be a great pick for the Flames if we was available in the later rounds. Maybe worth the risk, maybe the worth a 3rd round pick. However, you never now.
