The Flyers will learn where they will be picking at the NHL draft lottery on Tuesday night. They have only had the No. 1 overall pick once in franchise history — that was in 1975.
On Tuesday night, Flyers general manager Chuck Fletcher will pray to the ping pong ball gods as the Flyers look to land the No. 1 overall selection in the 2022 NHL draft.
The Flyers odds at drawing picks No. 2, 4, 5 and 6 are greater than their odds at No. 1 — 9.8% at the second selection, 15.4% at the fourth, 44.9% at the fifth, and 20.5% at the sixth. With the No. 2 pick in the 2007 draft, the Flyers selected winger James van Riemsdyk. He played three seasons for the Flyers before he was traded to the Toronto Maple Leafs in exchange for defenseman Luke Schenn on June 23, 2012. After spending six years in Toronto, van Riemsdyk returned to the Flyers via free agency in 2018 when he signed a five-year, $35 million deal.
