Bill Meltzer: Game Preview: Flyers vs. DET

AVs blogger immediate disclaimer on any trades, mentions Giroux specifically, no Newhook included.

And people told me Frost wouldn’t be out of the lineup with brassard and brown back. This organization is a joke. The kid literally just started to play well in the NHL this year.

It's extremely frustrating.

One of the few prospects currently available with any NHL potential is getting scratched in the favor of Macewen Brown Bunnaman Mayhew Willman. The dinosaurs behind the bench and in the front office need to go ASAP

Couldn't agree more.

It is frustrating. Also frustrating that on 2 of the Phantoms 3 power plays last night, O'Reilly and Clendening were on PP1.

I never thought I would reach this level of disgust with a team that I have adored since I was a kid.

that screams to me of a coach trying to win and placing that above the development of potential future NHL players.

Dear Fletch,




Sincerely, The Fans

Frost and York not playing is just showing how dysfunctional this organization is.

It is frustrating. Also frustrating that on 2 of the Phantoms 3 power plays last night, O'Reilly and Clendening were on PP1.
- bmeltzer

With all due respect, on the list of organizational priorities, the Phantoms PP shouldn't even register.

How does that make any sense?

- hello it's me 2050

Then he should be coaching in the ECHL.

Playing all the poopty vets. Are they trying to go on a run or something?

God, I am so close to being done with this franchise anymore. They are so insanely out of touch with just about everything.

Are the powers that be in Philly/LV seeing something that the rest of us aren’t? Seriously, these guys need ice time and reps and a chance to get exposure to every type of situation. If they’re gonna be sent to the AHL for experience then at least let these kids get that experience. Frustrating is not even the word anymore.

The Moral Victory Cup is still in sight, so it makes sense that this team is Playing the Game the Right Way and Trying to Win no matter what. There are tickets to sell for next year and a GM that is ready to wheel and deal this team to contention next season. All in. Resources Maximized for Greatness.

Remember, there is a very valuable sign in the locker room that says We Do Not Care Who You Are or Where You Came From, No One is Bigger Than the Team. And this team is a team of grit and sandpaper and gosh darnit, you gotta pay your dues! Nothing will be handed to you. Grab the lunch pail and get to work.

Your Lord and Savior, Forever and Always,

Bob Clarke.

This franchise has such a major case of little man syndrome. All because some team embarrassed them 50 years ago. It’s unbelievable.

It's the drive for the playoffs(LOL).or at least the drive to get us out of the top 10 in draft.

His point was that Frost and York should be on PP1.

I think Frost being on the Phantoms and not playing on the first PP unit is an issue.

You heard Scott, a few moves and they'll be right back in it. I wonder what right back in it means to him? By it, does he mean dog poop?
