The award for most consonants and fewest vowels in their name goes to Nick Schmaltz.

The in-game experience at Flyers games in the Wells Fargo Center has felt uncomfortable and overwhelming since at least the 04-05 lockout. The volume, the prices, the crampedness everwhere (the bathrooms, the horror).

I agree that many actual fans are priced out but I think the main reason the atmosphere is dead is because of the PR team. Somehow, they've made the experience of going to a Flyers game unenjoyable. If I go to a game, I'm there for the on-ice product, not to watch some attractive lady and Louie Nolan talk non-stop during stoppages, while simultaneously being force-fed Gritty. It's become a circus-like atmosphere.

And I'm pretty sure I dislike Gritty more than anyone, except Peter Forsberg.

Why does Forsberg dislike Gritty?

That's my point. As currently constructed with injuries and call-ups, they're not exactly the 04/05 Phantoms. Hell, they're not exactly the 17/18 Phantoms.

season ticket holders must have been excited when they thought they were going to have Frost, Farabee and Myers. Nature of the beast being a minor league affiliate

Usually the guys outside of the top-tier who get slapped with the 'NHL-Ready' tag are physically mature, move decently, 'advanced' defensively, and everybody got to see them at international tournys. Like Luke Schenn, Crouse, Puljujarvi, Alzner, etc.

They get massively overrated.

I don't have a problem with big projects like Ratcliffe and Strome. Even Morin, since he always showed that he really wanted it.

But mostly, I think the best value picks tend to be the imperfect/late-blooming kids who had to go through a lot of adversity just to get to the draft, and developed a chip/killer instinct/hunger at a young age. Like Clarke, Richards, Giroux, etc.

Downie might have been the opposite extreme tho, a bit too angry/damaged.

Crouse is all of 22 so he can still put it together but i do recall many people saying they weren't all that impressed with him when he was coming out and when his name was linked to the Flyers not that i thought for one moment they weren't taking a dman

This was right on. A team is more than just what we see on the ice. Fletcher did it right signing Stewart.

If they wanted a guy to chat with injured players they could have hired Stewart as a coach.

Instead he's taking up a roster spot that could have gone to someone who is still able to play at the NHL level, like Nick Shore or Bryan Boyle.
