Philadelphia's three-year rebuild has yielded a consensus top-10 NHL pipeline, led by Matvei Michkov and a deep 2025 class (Porter Martone, Jack Nesbitt, Carter Amico, Jack Murtagh, Shane Vansaghi, Matthew Gard). Pronman slots Philly No. 7, highest in the Metro, after an A-grade draft haul that fortifies depth behind a budding core.

Bonk and Luchanko anchor the back end, Zavragin offers goalie upside, and Zegras is invoked as a homecoming thread in the broader rebuild narrative. A Sept. 8 top-20 breakdown should sharpen the fantasy picture as the system converts toward NHL impact.
