Philadelphia Flyers: 2010 Draft class turned out to be a bust

Tye McGinn was the Flyers fourth round pick, taken 119th overall. Out of all of their draft picks that year, he is the only one to have played for the Flyers.

He came to the Flyers from the Gatineau Olympiques of the QMJHL. Coming into the draft, McGinn led his junior team in all offensive categories. He had also averaged over a point-per-game that season. His 62 points were more than double of what he posted his rookie season.

McGinn made his professional debut with the Adirondack Phantoms in 2011. There he posted 12 goals and six assists. He was given the opportunity to play in the NHL the following season.

He performed adequately in his 18 games, registering three goals and two assists. His first NHL goal came during the third game of his career. McGinn became a standout player for the Phantoms the following season. He was third on the team in points and second in goals.

He was given another chance in the NHL, appearing in 18 games once again in the 2013-14 season. There he posted four goals and one assist. His skill in the AHL wasn’t translating to the NHL. That led the team to trade him to the San Jose Sharks during the summer of 2014.

From there, he saw NHL time with the Sharks, Arizona Coyotes and Tampa Bay Lighting. McGinn collected seven points in 53 games. Since the 2015-16 season, he has been playing in the AHL.

He has been a part of the Syracuse Crunch, Tucson Roadrunners, Manitoba Moose and Chicago Wolves. He has most recently spent the last season with the Wolves, an affiliate of the Las Vegas Golden Knights.
