I'm not as pissed about Lindblom potentially being cut as I am Morin. Lindblom will be up by Thanksgiving anyway you slice (the turkey) it.

I just can't make that guarantee with the questionable use of trash D year after year.

that there is even a possibility that Morin wont make the team is unacceptable.

See, I hate that call on Manning -- Barzal has the puck along the boards and is turning up with possession, then turns back when the player has him lined up for a hit

That absolutely wasn't a penalty years ago

And it shouldn't be a penalty now. And someone needs to put an elbow right in Ho-Sangs chin.

Its ridiculous. Basically:
AMac=John Rutsey
Morin=Neil Peart

Shouldn't be that hard for the "brain trust" to figure out.

If it makes you feel better you can take your frustrations with the Flyers decision making out on me. I'm here for the little man.

Oh you patron saint of chivalry, I hope one day to be half as great and infallible as you are.

Actually, my flippant remark was due to you stating that Morin and Sanheim weren't competing with Manning, which had nothing to do with my argument, yet you felt the need to state it to show how only you, alone on this board, can comprehend the intricacies of roster construction. Because insert bannable personal character comment herr.

Why does it feel like we are going to struggle at scoring goals again?
- Buzzo


I've never felt like this team has ever struggled to score goals but more so struggled to score clutch or timely goals. Jake will get his 20. Simmonds his 30. I think each player will fill his quota but not in away that will get us closer to a deep playoff run or Stanley Cup. Maybe not even the playoffs.

I feel like Ho-Sang is gonna be the Islanders Konecny. A guy they'll love to have but others will hate.

I love Konecny and his game but a lot of his chatter comes from a ref getting in between him and the player looking to kill him. Kind of a "hold me back guy, he's gonna get it" while knowing he's the one who likely to get creamed.

Your take on what happened is ridiculous. You replied to a reply I made to another poster yet you think you get to set the parameters on the conversation. Stating that my reply in any way insinuated that I alone am the only one who can offer an opinion is asinine. You're the one with the problem here. I'm entitled to offer an opinion.

I think Mac has been the worst Dman left standing to date. Manning second. Morin, Hagg and Sanheim has clearly outplayed both those bums.

agreed. But what do we know, we are just American fans who clearly have no idea about talent evaluation. So just just sit down ,shut up, and keep donating your money.

All the left shots on the left side of the PP and all the right shots on the right side is killing the second unit. The opposite is why the first unit has been so good.

Getting annoyed with Voracek on the PP, all he does is turnover the puck.

In my view even if they haven't outplayed any of the veterans they should make the team because they've shown they're NHL ready. The difference, if there even is one, is not going to elevate the team. In other words this team isn't a contender and keeping a veteran over a rookie isn't going to elevate the team. Nor is keeping a rookie over a veteran going to keep the team from contending . So let's get the future started. We'll see what they do.
