Flyers are taking the "youth movement" a little too seriously

He was last seen getting into a car with Dave Brown.....

"Okay, Vinny, here's the deal. You have 3 options: Agree to terminate your contract, put on this Sandstrom jersey and stay int he car with me, or put on this Nillson jersey and go into Mr. Hextall's office."

I thought the Flyers were the only team that could beat themselves

that was a good win, and a tough loss.

They did the it, and then they did not it enough.

Vinny, we just hired Dany Heatley as your driver.

What time would the parade start?

Ha! Tomorrow will likely be the highlight of the season.

There wouldn't be a statement made that there will be an update tomorrow if VLC had some bogus injury. No body would give a flying (frank) about that.

Eric Boulton wanted a contract so badly he signed it and went straight to LTIR. He's our motivational speaker.

lower body injury, no current estimate on when he'll return

that is all

Philadelphia Flyers ‏@NHLFlyers 9m9 minutes ago
Per GM Ron Hextall:
Vincent Lecavalier will not skate today; there will be an update tomorrow.

Claude Giroux is having a maintenance day.
- PhillySportsGuy

It shouldn't take an entire day for Vinny to drive to Allentown

76 Chris VandeVelde - 78 Pierre-Edouard Bellemare - 93 Jakub Voracek

seriously enough

Watching Ghost play this season compared to the handful of games he had last season is one heck of a turn around in development, especially after such a horrible injury. Does he now have a robotic leg?

With this said, I expect Morin, Sanheim and Provorov to develop much quick than the 22 year old Ghost. The younger prospects just have the tools and more to work with. In fact, my bold guess is Provorov will either make the team next season out right or at least get the 9 game look.

It's an exciting time.

can't get there soon enough

Don't get your hopes up. It's likely some kind of injury and he needs to be evaluated medically before Hextall will update tomorrow.

That's been the Flyers way for years now.

I agree. When is Hakstol going to give North Datoka alumnus Chris VandeVelde a shot on the top line with Giroux instead of playing a star in the making with scrubs like Voracek?

Why not just say that? It's not as if VLC is a crucial part of the team and Hexy wants to be absolutely sure what's wrong with him before crushing the hopes and dreams of the fanbase of a Vinny-lead trip to the finals.

Have to evaluate some bullpoop injury to a (frank)ing schlub that is never going to play another game again. That would be a huge (frank)ing waste of everyone's time.

I don't know but Hextall has a pattern of how he deals with injuries and the media. I'm just speculating like everyone else.

"Also, this date in Flyers history:

28 years ago today, Hexy scored his first goal vs Boston"


Maybe he could lace 'em up again. We can put him on the 3rd line
- DaveofYork

28 years ago hexy had the same number of goals a voracek in the season

He should hold a private meeting with him and brag. Maybe that will finally get him going

Hextall had better linemates though

I know, and you might be right...I just don't see the angle, the need to delay the information.

Alright, now I have to clean entire work space from spilled coffe.

So 7:00 PM start is code for 7:30 PM start?
