It doesn't have to be one or the other -- Schenn is one of those players who might need both

We all recognize it's Day 1. But saying that who plays with who isn't at all important is not true, because if Couturier was playing with two people with hands of stone, I'd be questioning the same thing

All we've heard is how practice is important, a good start is important. So yeah, having Brayden Schenn playing with a winger who is likely ticketed for Lehigh Valley is something to talk about, because Game 1's points matter just as much as Game 82s

If Laughton is ticketed for LHV, then Vinny is the 3C based on today's lines. So you're probably reading too much into the first day of camp.

If Laughton goes to LHV and Schenn stays at RW, he probably is your 3C.

Here is a legit question. Who is the Flyers best defensive defenseman heading into this season? The most solid in the D zone.

Not sure saw it on my instagram feed - it looks like one unit maybe. I wouldn't be caught dead in one.

I agree Bill. Normally when I agree with you it gives me a feeling of reassurance. In this case, it has me frightened.

Notable line from today's scrimmage umberger - vinny - Gagner
- Tfaehner


A trio of questionable players but also an interesting mix. Gagner can set up both players for scoring but still questionable defensively.

In a way I don't mind giving Vinnie a little bit of a chance for a "fresh start". But I'm a little disappointed that Schenn is dumped to RW on Laughton's line. Was hoping he'd get more of a legitimate chance.

I know it's only Day 1 of camp, but this might be what Hakstol's thinking as the team wants to get off to a strong start so I kinda see them jumping on potential combinations right away vs. a lot of tinkering.

What are the lines? I have to admit that I'm happy Vinny is getting a shot on a scoring line at center.
