Assuming no injuries to Dmen, who sits from last night's 6 to get Morin a game here and there?

Hagg?

I think they would dress 7 if they want to get Morin in.

I don't think Morin is likely to play until such a time when the Flyers are mathematically eliminated. Very, very hard to jump into NHL stretch drive hockey when, due to a serious injury, you've played 3 games in nearly a calendar year and were basically unable to finish the first one due to dehydration/cramping. He felt fine in his latter 2 rehab games with the Phantoms.

I’m ok with that. Does Knight really need to be in the lineup.

Thanks Bill.

Can Morin still go back to the Phantoms on a conditioning stint?

Gotta get him a game.
- SuperSchennBros

Why do we have to get him a game at the moment? We are in a playoff race and this kid played one game this year and could hardly finish it?

I thought Knight looked good out there, in the limited minutes. Better than Vorobyev at least. Set Raffl up with a nice touch pass when they were in close and was in around and crashing the net. That's what you want from your fourth line.

Fletcher needs to go get the bread man if he sees us as a destination. Bottom line. You go get the best players in the league when their available and you pay what it takes to do it

I understand that you are using logic and reasoning and reaching a solid conclusion, however, Flyers-Devils matchups and the Devils franchise, in particular, seem immune to reason and logic in my experience.

For some reason i always have zero faith of getting a win against the Devils. They always play us well.

Everytime something happens with that team, whether someone leaves via free agency or when Lou left, I thought "THIS IS WHEN THE DEVILS FINALLY REACH THEIR RIGHTFUL PLACE IN THE BOTTOM OF THE LEAGUE FOR BEING A MISFIT FRANCHISE".

And yet, they are still feisty and competitive and seem to always find ways to beat the Flyers. It's aggravating.

They are a bottom 5 team in the league. I have no doubt the flyers will jump in this team tonight and show them all that a bubble team is made of

They're also missing Hall and Palmieri, and their main instigator, Miles Wood.

On paper, this should be a win for the Flyers.

Boucher got the ax in Ottawa. You know because it's his fault that place is a dumpster fire right now with no players.

Parise = heart of a lion work your bag off guy with good skill, injuries caught up with him playing that style for a small guy

Panarin = top 5 offensive talent in the NHL

Big difference

Why are people not more stoked on breaking the all time record for amount of goalies played in a season?! This is the biggest news to hit this team in a while.

He's also a poop coach and I hope the Flyers stay far away from him this off-season.
