just watching the clarke game 2 OT goal against boston - i can't imagine a line of schultz, flett, and clarke was a regular line...assuming clarke got double shifted there.

Pre Leach, Flett was his regular RW, Schultz was just giving Barber a rest that shift

money comes and goes. it guarantees very little.

I know it would guarantee a few things in my life... a paid off mortgage, paid off school loans, new more reliable vehicles, and more time with my family if I could quit my job.

Either he wants the Flyers to sign Brett Lindros, or he wants them to draft Jakob Chychrun in a few years.

His father was maybe the worst "enforcer" in Flyers history*. His fight with Randy McKay is clear evidence of that.

*Tied with Roman Vopat.

If it's enough to pay off my house, pay off my car, and ensure that my daughter can go to the college of her choice, I'm taking the money. Anything less, give me The Cup.

Zubrus, Gratton, Primeau... maybe throw Handzus in there, too. Should be up to Lindros 5.0 by now.

Anyone else surprised there have been no changes to the scouting dept. Also has not hired a stat geek that I know of even though he's given lip service to the analytical area of the game.

Just thought we'd hear about a couple changes by now since the draft is over. Only thing was the change to the coaching staff which might have been berubes call

During the regular season for the Flyers what did MacDonald put into the net more?

pucks, or his own goaltender?

What's wrong with our scouting group? Also, I feel like he's put more emphasis on using analytics carefully in order to compliment scouting reports and to help improve team stats through a direct approach. I don't know why we'd need a stats guru for that.
