Man, I am stunned

The same team that rolled over on Thanksgiving showed heart after being down 14-0 today

They aren't good, and the Pats made the kind of mistakes you can't count on every week

But they have a chance to win the division, as bad as they are, because when they could have rolled over after being down two scores, they didn't quit on themselves and the coaches

Might not be enough. But at least some people on that squad care

They turned into the Flyers. Get beat three in a row, twice getting blown out, to teams they should have beaten, play the Blackhawks of the NFL and beat them.

I've been on fire this week with my predictions so I'll go ahead and make a not so bold call and suggest that they'll still be a mediocre team and will poop themselves again soon.

i don't know what i want them to do you can find good players pretty much anywhere in the draft because the most important aspect of football is the coach and the player's desire to learn the coach's game

yea a franchise QB would be great but even those are heavily tied to a great coach at times

* Why not place him with Scott Laughton (or Nick Cousins, as some have suggested)? Look at that line's ice time distribution. Hakstol wanted Voracek on the ice more often, based on the way he uses his personnel. Alloting Voracek a similar amount of non-power play time to the way Hakstol uses Sam Gagner Laughton, Cousins and Taylor Leier was never a serious consideration, because the coach is not inclined to change the way he uses lines overall in order to accommodate one player; even if that player is one of Voracek's stature on the team.

Maybe if Voracek had played with guys like Laughton/Cousins/Leier, you know, guys with average to above average offensive talent, that line would get things going and warrant more ice time. Lord knows we need goals, so why bury your top point producer from last season with 2 grinders?

I think it's time to put Voracek and Giroux back together. Also I am tired of seeing Vandevelde out there. I would rather take my lumps with someone like Leier as he can kill penalties and play a checking roll but also brings more speed and skill. Hell I thought colin McDonald was more effective then Vandevelde
