where do our rentals rank compared to these guys?
- homiedclown

where does cap-hit/cap-space fit into this equation?

Has everything but skating which i'm sure can be fixed with hard work

Lambert on the other hand you can see a first line center that will make Something out of nothing with his speed only problem is his Maturity and attitude that's holding him back
- gerbe75pts

agreed

I think he takes a bigger hit due to the lack of maturity

we may get him with one of our later firsts

pronman's analysis is reminiscent of what they were saying (to a degree) about armia and (also to an extent) nylander--a lot of skill that comes to the fore at times, and looks impressive in the process, but all three disappear way too often
- Michael Pachla

Yeah Maturity is a big thing but if he puts its all together lots of teams will look dumb but i get it .

Can't Have a mike ribeiro type in the organization

pretty sure the teams owning the rentals will eat some cheddar

I'm a big fan of getting Gio to sign here. The defense needs a strong leader.

Quinn tied for goal lead in AHL with 7-10 less games played than most. Biggest standout for me is the company of 17, 18 goal scorers are not young guys, they are all career AHL late 20’s 30 years old. Quinn is in a class by himself

On pace for 59 goals and 119 points (give or take) over an 80 game schedule.

What a terrible draft pick.

- homiedclown

If eat all of the cheddar to get a 1st for Miller or Hino. We can afford it and so can Terry. Good ballz test got GMKA this deadline imo

Will the Flyers do better than a 1st, 2nd and a player after tanking his offensive numbers? Methinks no

never thought of him in buffalo

while tanking?

kinda oxymoronic, wouldn't you say? (nuthin' personal)

The thing about winners, is that they can lose, but feel good, because they know, that some losing, is what is required to win, sometimes, but not always, could lead to winning, if they just lose to get more winners around them.

I've been riding this train since he was let go from Calgary

agreed

but I can see a team throwing a late first at risto over whatever we have

while tanking?

Is alex Tuch not a winner ? They're building a culture with the right pieces to make sure going forward everyone knows if you're not with the program your out

- homiedclown

but don't win

from pronman, no. 4 prospect


- Michael Pachla[David] Jiricek is a big [6'3" 189 lbs.], right-shot defenseman who makes an impact at both ends of the rink. He has great individual skill to make opponents miss. You combine that with very good vision and a hard point shot, and inside the offensive zone he can make a lot happen and be dangerous on a power play. His skating won’t dazzle, but for his size he gets around well enough. He shows some shiftiness to pull away from checks but lacks ideal speed and burst for the NHL level. Despite that, he defends well due to his reach and a high level of physical play, often punishing opposing forwards with his body. He projects as a top pair defenseman.

may need a couple years to mature and adapt to the pro game...that's why a stopgap on the right side would be a big helpo

Brought him up a couple weeks ago
Interesting prospect who could be just what we’re looking for

Wonder if the flyboys pawn off Coutourier before the NTC kicks in
