phil pritchard's in anchorage, eh?

I blame them, too. But when guys are not held accountable by the coach, it's hard for the leadership group to do it's job.

Not to mention most of the leadership group has battled their own issues-Timonen, Briere and Hartnell have all been hurt and played ineffectively, and when Laviolette's idea of discipline after a bad penalty is to demote a guy to the third line, but rush his ass out for every PP, it's hard to do

He can't bench 3/4 of the team - the usual amount of players who do not show up each night.

I don't know enough about the draft, but if the Flyers have the opportunity to draft McKinnon or Jones, who do they draft?
- ravishingone

Jones

because the plot of this season simply demands it. i mean, really, he had literally no other option than to make that bad cross-ice pass into traffic.

Moral victories.

Philadelphia Gulf Coast.

Say what you want but Simmonds is a tough bastard. Dude is an animal.
- stveshdy

he is. no doubt.

Or, how do we trick Florida into trading us their #1 pick and getting Jones and MacKinnon/Drouin?

Dammit Toronto up a goal on Florida. It would really be something special to surpass Florida. But Edmonton up 3-0!!!

Jones

Mackinnon. Then trade......wait for it.......giroux!!!

My opinion on that changes once a week, and there's been plenty of time I had Drouin ahead of both

Simmonds deserves an A on his jersey.

Trade Giroux to Florida and draft both

I used to be in favour of a more player friendly coach on this team.

I am starting to lean toward the opposite.

And a visor on his helmet. Maybe a full cage for a while.

I'd like him on the top line regularly.

You can't have drouin ahead simply Bc he's a winger.

They should stick your avatar as the logo for the Flyers.

don't worry, everyone. the flyers will storm the 3 period and win, giving the rangers their first regulation loss in 70 games when leading after 2 periods, catapulting themselves back into the playoff race of which will eventually claim the 8th seed before going on to win their first Cup since 1975.

it starts now.

I think they have to draft Jones. Might be the only way to get a #1D without giving up assets even if it takes a while for him to develop.

You can't help but to be impressed with this kid.

I only wish he'd take the hint and consider wearing a shield.

Draft best player with our top 5 pick. Move Coburn for 1st. Package that first with our 2nd. Take Nurse. If we end up with Drouin or MacKinnion bye bye Coots or Schenn, hello D man.

Realistically I see this team winning maybe 6 more games the rest of the way, I think they get into the top 3 in the draft.

I can't even get a full two pack of s'mores pop tarts tonight wtf
