Yeah, the interference call was about the only knock against him.

Though, with that said, a perfect PK so far is a nice change.

Go figure? Sure your watching the Flyers?

What kind of line up did Islanders throw out? Well. Let me be more direct. Mostly AHL, mostly NHL, or a mix

I was about to say Hagg hasn't been as bad as the previous games, but then...

Mix, but they just lack depth everywhere. Flyers gotta kill a 5 on 3, that will be a test

I’ve seen Barzal, Bailey, Beauvillier, Leddy so it isn’t a bunch of scrubs. Also, they just killed almost a full 5-3.

I just wanted to give my opinion surrounding the doom and gloom that might boot Myers out as a main stay...

Hägg is an NHLer. He’s here to stay. Sanheim on the other hand I think makes the team but looks like a kid who might need nights off. I think Myers plays above Sanheim no matter what. Someone suggested alternating between Sanheim and Hägg. Sounds possible. I do believe the best players will play. If and when Morin can plays, we could see Gudas gone in favor of Morin by the next offseason.

- SuperSchennBros


Yeah I'm gonna disagree with you here.Hagg is the worst defender in the flyers top 6 and Sanheim offers so much more in both offense and defense. I for one am looking forward to when we ship hagg off to Seattle so that we can play both Myers and Sanheim every night

Agreed. When everyone is healthy, Hagg should be the odd man out.

Hart with a nice save on Barzal. His positioning is excellent.

Yeah, you could do worse than Hagg, but the Flyers are at a point where they have 6 better options.

Some good players there. BiggE mention a mix.

Add: Gudas finally hits someone.

Maybe a defense starved team will be willing to part with a 2nd or something for him

Yeah, we need a more aggressive Gudas.

I was skeptical at the start of camp, but Twarynski is making me a believer that he could be a bottom 6 guy this year.

The site says he has three shots on goal. If NAK is sent home then Twarynski has a shot for sure

Doubtful. He’s played well but he is a first year pro and he hasn’t stood out to the point that would allow him to go straight from Junior to the NHL. If he plays well at LHV he may earn an injury call up though and he will certainly be in the mix to win a spot next season.

If a rookie forward is going to be in the opening night lineup, my money is on Vorobyev

Gun to my head, I think he ends up in LV to start the year. I see them dangling a few bottom 6 vets to open up spots for him and NAK.
