I've provided tons of insight concerning MacDonald, since he has become a Flyer. This is not a new discussion. I've also had numerous discussions with that poster concerning MacDonald in the past. My opinion is well documented. I'm not interested in a discussion or agenda that doesn't have anything to do with the sport or the players.

Your DVR sounds like mine, haha.

I'm not anal, I just enjoy older movies. Even if I'm doing work, I'll turn on TCM for background noise

I remember reading Paul Thomas Anderson saying he has it on all day around the house, even when he's not watching closely, just so it can effectively seep into his and his kids's subconscious.

All the top prospects have reported to WJ camps it seems. But Myers had a SGH tonight and Aube Kubel with 1G 1A. Myers really interests me as an undrafted big righty d man who has blossomed well beyond expectation in so short a time. Bill said a scout told him he'd be redrafted late second round. And he certainly has some potential left in the tank. I love prospects who surprise like that.

I grew up on them, so it's just kinda carried over to adulthood.

No need to keep him. They're gonna have to make a move to keep Gostisbehere

Paying him a salary is not a factor, as I explained, he get's the same salary whether he plays in the NHL or the AHL. The Flyers don;t save any salary money by sending him down. Cap money, however is a factor. I don't think it has anything to do with how he is playing currently. He is as good of a player as arguably, 4 of the defenseman on the team currently. He is certainly a better player than Manning is. However, you can't discount that the Flyers were not happy with his play last season in relation to his contract. That is most certainly a factor. The Flyers made this decsion, in my opinion in the off season, before training camp even began.

Fair enough. Hopefully he gets another chance to earn his money and settles into, at worst, a 5/6 role.

How drastic of a move does it need to be if things stay status quo on injuries. Will waiving of umberger be enough?
