No Particular order

1. Schenn
2. Kimmo
3. Mez
4. Coburn
5. Streit
6. Gus
7. MAB
8. Grossmann
9. Lauridson
10. Gervais

I guess he made the top ten

- PhillySportsGuy


Plus he's ahead of MAB and Lauridsen. Lauridsen needs more AHL time. I consider him an AHL defenseman at this point.

I missed that day. I just needed to vent my frustrations with him. He was matched against the easiest competition in limited minutes and still finished as by far the worst +/- on the team.

If the Flyers use Gervais in the proper role, with a solid partner. He's fine.

I wouldnt put him ahead of those two. I would also imagine Alt being better than him by the end of next season.

They used him with Coburn in limited minutes against the worst lines. What better situation should he be in?

Holmgren was doing a an interview with Barkann from the Flyers Skatezone, the fire alarm goes off mid-interview, and Barkann says "another goal".

Gervais with Bobby Orr circa 1968 would form a legit pairing.

He averaged over 17 minutes a game in ice time. He should be a 6/7 defenseman who averages about 12 minutes a game.

Gervais is fine as 6/7 depth defenseman.

When he was playing with Kimmo last year he almost made Kimmo look bad. I didn't even think it was possible but Gervais was just atrocious.

Wrong color Sir. You have to go with the Orange.

a 6/7 defenseman will most likely be put into roles where he has to play 17-20 minutes during lengthy stretches of the season.

He shouldn't be playing with Timonen at all. That's the point. When you have all the injuries they have, and have to over play a player like Gervais. That's what happens. Put him in the low minute 6 or 7 spot, and he'll be fine.
And with the Flyers team defense as bad as it was last Season. Much better players such as Coburn looked like crap. Honestly, I don't know what people expect.
