Just don't make any panic trades for players that won't help the team in 3+ years. None. Do the opposite if things keep sliding. Build for 3+ years. great young offensive nucleus.

I'm probably going to get hammered for this, but it seems Luke Schenn had an okay game. I'm not sure why Leaf nation hates him so much.

One of the better players in this game easily, for the Flyers. With Bryz and the 4th line

I don't see how any one player would have helped the last 3 games. This is a team wide execution problem. And IMO a coaching problem.

I can't stand the trading of 2-4 rd draft choices for damages rentals. if there are too many contracts bundle picks and trade up.

One of these decades the Flyers will stop being shutout by Fatso.

On behalf of Leafs Nation, nobody hated him. Seemed like a very nice young man, and Leafs Nation really wishes him well.

Further to Jsaq's post, expectations were too great.

But at the end of the day, he lacks footspeed. He does some nice stuff out there like big hits, which makes you really, really want the guy to do well.

But the lack of footspeed will keep rearing its ugly head. You'll soon see what I'm talking about.

But look on the bright side: you didn't give up much to get him.

Literally, the only positive so far this year has beeen Bryz. We can't score we can't play D.. no special teams.. Keep this up a few more games and we are definitely looking at Fail for seth.

Issue I have is we are playing him on the top pairing.. As 4 5 6 guy I think he's fine..

the former comment, totally agree. The latter, this isn't Coaching. This is simply a team that isn't playing well as a whole.
