Any extra 1st round pick, I hope the Canucks seriously consider this guy

Ya possibly.
I am hoping Canucks end up getting Jennifer Botterill, who I think would be good in a player development role.

How about we hire folks with experience 🤷‍♂️

You mean the guys with experience that have (frank)ed up with countless other teams for decades?? Yeah that’ll get a great result.

You want or expect them to hire everyone with experience?
She is a very smart hockey mind and I believe would be a good choice in a role with any team.

I do agree that they need to get some good experienced people into the top positions like POHO GM, AGM and Head coach.

I think the Canucks really need to focus on safe picks, they have quite a few smaller guys as it is.
- Reubenkincade

I don't know your definition of safe picks because I'm not sure there really is such a thing. Unless you going with one of those Ottawa type who the (frank) is this guy picks.

As usual though in the draft, you don't not pick Adam Fox because you have Quinn Hughes or you don't not pick Brayden Point because you have Conor Garland.

That's just something you deal with later from a point of strength.

One report says it is 3 weeks, either way, I doubt the players are interested in going now.
- Reubenkincade


Yeah maybe, just that if you test positive you’re grounded. I think it was Friedman that said some of the players he has talked to still want to go. For them it’s worth the risk. I bet Ovie goes no matter what.

Did Benning and Green get contract extensions after the win?

Possibly his last shot. I wonder what the NHL would do for if teams chose to allow players to go.

Would he just go non-roster or would they get to put them on LTIR because they are gone for a while?

No, but they hit one of their contract bonuses.

Do like the Canucks do and just assign them to your AHL affiliate…

Another coaching candidate gets added to the recycle bin.

Truscott will be in tough to make the team but might have an edge the fact that him and Luke Hughes are paired together in Michigan and are leading the NCAA in plus minus. (Ronnie Attard is in the middle of them with a higher PPG than both but he's 22 now. Property of the Flyers. Also wasn't good enough by Ruby's standards to be in a trade for Miller) ((frank) you Ruby )

When 3 players pass the puck back and forth to each other on the PP and eventually you get lucky and put 1 in the net, all 3 players who pass only amongst themselves, will get a point.
Pretty basic stuff that obvious a lot of Canuck slurpers can't see..

Something to look forward to.

I am more interested in the next 2 drafts, than I am with this clusterfuck of an organization.

Flyers press conference. They must have taken a written script from Benning with those excuses.

EK sums it up

Excuse 1 Injuries
“Parts of our games have taken steps back. When Hayes, Brassard…get back..we will be better.”
“Phantoms have been decimated by injuries.”

Excuse 2 other teams are better
“The Coaches started off great. In the last ten games everyone has slipped. We played 7 of the top ten teams.”

Excuse 3 PP sucks
“We haven’t had a good power play since 14-15. Biggest problem now is our zone entries. It goes beyond the coaching.” Fletcher says the power play is a player issue. “I don’t know that we have the natural goal scorers from the flank.”
