Mills and Darby are close to being ready.

Do you really think they are a significant upgrade?

I’d rather have Andreoff or Gabriel, at least they can keep up with the pace of NHL play. Plus neither is a prospect anymore so I don’t care if they only get into the occasional game.

Stewart, OTOH, is a guy I never want to see in the lineup.

Enjoy 11 minutes of number 44 tonight!

I think Fletcher has a soft spot for Stewart and sees more in him than most others too. I don’t believe it’s any more complicated than that

He is on record as saying " I love the guy"

Don't know. Mills hasn't played in a year, how good can he be? Darby when healthy is just okay. However it's not hard not to be better than what they have now. Not upgrading the secondary and relying on a bunch of mediocre corners was a huge mistake by Roseman coming into the season. Other than signing Walker, what did they do to upgrade the defense? It's going to cost them the season.

I don't know what he was thinking not upgrading the d in the off-season. They're wayyyy too reliant on the front line.

Then again I don't know why more teams don't just get pass happy on the Eagles. It's been their biggest weaknesses for some time now.

Team negative in mid season form. Stewart is a glue guy. Other than taking up minimal cap space I’m happy for the guy.
If having Stewart on your team is the downfall to your season there are much bigger problems on the roster.

With how often Fletch has gone after Stewart I wouldn't be so sure that is glue...

Agreed. He has some real sand paper to his game. Very gritty and like you said a GLUE guy. I love glue guys. Does he also chirp the other bench effectively?

Not sure he knows yet. His shift at Dave and Buster’s isn’t over until 7pm west coast time.

Do they have Dave & Buster's out there? I'm still reeling from my visit to an East LA Yosinoya Beef Bowl

Sorry boys 5-3 flames. With empty net goal. But think flyers will carry a lot of the game and lose because a couple bad bounces or calls and of course.... Elliot and not hart in net
