Anyone think maybe the flyers should send hartnell down to the second line to give them a bit of pop again? And have Raffl back on the top line with G and Voracek.

No, but I'd switch Raffl and McGinn around or consider calling up Jason "Knife Fight Art Ross" Akeson.

I'd agree on Raffl, but there is a reason Akeson isn't, and hasn't played in the show... Just saying. No idea why people are so hot on him? He's an average AHL player at best.

I make it a general practice to hate entire groups, races and ethnicities because of the actions of a few people.

Oh, absolutely. But one of the reasons why Akeson isn't up is his lack of foot speed and lack of defensive game. The Schenn/Simmonds line usually draws 3rd/4th defensive assignments, and they aren't particularly fast. With what McGinn has (or hasn't) been offering, I'd give Akeson a quick look.

Aren't races and ethnicities groups? If so, they're a bit redundant and unnecessary.

I'd have given him a look much earlier on in the season, when there was some slack. I'm not sure if now would be the best time..? Either way, I think Raffl moving up can't hurt.

I was kidding. I work with people who struggle with English all the time. They know more English than I know French or any other language
