exactly. to me, the only consistency is that it will be dictated by the score

Pens have built up a nice little reputation over the last few years. Get used to getting the shaft on most nights.

When this occurs, I will feel closer to you. For you will finally understand the complaining of Flyers fans.

nevermind, ignore me and you will have a better existence in life

Oh.. He's not the problem.

I'm merely sparking debate to up my post count.

All I care about is winning. Don't be such a homer. We are a long way away from winning a cup. It's not just one or two players, its an entire culture and attitude.

Back in the day we'd say they need to bring their lunch pails to work on Friday. For this team, I just hope they bring their skates.

For some unknown reason, I watched the BuzzGa(y)te2 video the other day; when you appeared on-screen, I got the shakes and both legs cramped up. I'll pass.

Just wait until they call a penalty on Kneel after he takes a high stick.

Well we'll find out eventually what B Schenn is going to be re-signed for. Goal scorers tend to get paid more then defensive checking forwards do. So I'm thinking in the 2.2M range for B. Schenn. And a little more then Couturier.
- MJL

Schenn - 41 points

Coots - 39 points

Schenn on a scoring line scores 2 more points than our defensive center.

you happy with this trade?

The Dallas Stars traded left wing James Neal and defenseman Matt Niskanen to the banged-up Pittsburgh Penguins in exchange for defenseman Alex Goligoski

Im not saying Schenn is better than Couts. I just don't feel Schenn has maxed out his potential at 22.

Oh, that's not what we're talking about.

Coots is even younger. I was saying that paying Schenn more than Coots is non-sense. MJL said he should get paid more because goal scorers get paid more. That is why I post the stats up.

The ice time would almost be exact if you take away the PK time Coots has done through out the year.

2nd PP time, 1:16mins/G

He'll get paid more because Couts signed his deal coming off of a disappointing 2nd season. Schenn waited and bounced back with a better season. You, also, need to factor in inflation.

After 2

Oshawa - 1
North Bay - 2

Laughton with an assist

Some concerning stats I've found (In my opinion concerning)-

Read leads our team in hits with 14 after 3 games.
Schenn bros tied with 11.
Rinaldo has 6.
Giroux 4.

Blocked shots - (61 total)
Voracek, Simmonds, B. Schenn, Hall, and Akeson all have 1
Vinny has 0.
Coots the only forward with more than 2 blocked shots.

Flyers have blocked more shots than the Rangers (57) through 3 games... really think someone isn't keeping good records of the games...

Although.. if I go look at the team stats on NHL.com, the Flyers have 55 and the rangers have 57. Maybe bad math. Either way, doesn't seem right.

Got bored. Going to play elder scrolls.

Inflation doesn't apply to pay checks this high. It's meaningless at this amount.

NHL inflation. Player salaries increase every year.
