Hockey is hockey. It's basically played the same way. Its about hard work and execution. Thats how you win hockey games.

Its not played the same way. Every team plays different.

Execution inside of the system wins/loses games

Yeah, can't be made official until tomorrow. They terminated the contract of ECHL goalie Niko Hovinen, but he has to clear waivers.

Solid veteran signing. Should be a good mentor to your young guns.

Rangers looked extremely slow and fatigued. Flyers should be able to take advantage of that.

How many different systems can their be? Most overrated statement "systems". Without hard work or execution you get demolished no matter the system, imo.

He should help. Not sure how much he's got left in the tank, but at the very least he can mentor the kids.

They are all essential in hockey. You need it all.

Systems dont win games true.. but they give you the blueprints to win..

But whatever.. not doing this again

Think he has the potential to be real good... Those idiots in Toronto hurt him more than helped him

Does anyone here really believe these players save 3 or 4 guys really need to learn the system? Timonen isn't going to call out all those who aren't playing up to expectations.

Give me a break.

The new players had 7 days to learn the system. Gotta change all those instincts from previous systems played

not that bad. A couple of goals here and there ... and some good veteran leadership for the youngsters.

Yep, new guys Gervais and Fedetenko don't know the system, that's what is holding this team back!


These players have been playing these "systems" since Juniors, even going back further.

Some don't understand what cliche's are!
