I won't blame Fletcher for the player being injured. However it was pure mismanagement to send York down.
- MJL

you get the point

If this was in the NHL it could have been heck of a lot worse? Do you believe half the crap you post? There’s a lot more guys finishing their checks in the AHL buddy. What do they hit harder in the NHL?

Not only was it stupid to send York down, but it was costly as well. This franchise is an utter crapshow

I’d be interested to have ratcliffe play up with brassard if he can stay healthy.

Seems to crystallize most everything everyone says here regarding the prospects. (Although the Makar/Patrick thing still is a bit of revisionist history). Nonetheless, hockey people are supposed to know this. We’re always on the wrong side of risky picks or reaches. Of course Flyers drafted Rubsov and O’Brien yet didn’t “reach” for Makar. Oh the joys of being a flyers fan

Between the two of them they are over 50 percent of the posts on the first page. Didn’t count but guessing. Used to not pay attention to who was writing what. But now it just saves incredible time.

It’s just high level nonsense. But Hextall sucked and so does Fletcher. Premise works.

(frank) YOU FLETCH!!!!!

York should have never been on the Phantoms to begin with

On a brighter note, we should get a 1-0 shutout with Risto not out there (frank)in up everything, right guys?

Have to agree. A few good points but otherwise, meh.

Pretty solid views actually. When your this bad , there’s plenty of blame to go around. The focus needs to be on the current regime and it’s continued blunders. What’s frustrating is there continues to be no accountability at the top….just excuses for utter incompetence. Is it a result of being part of a faceless corporation? It doesn’t seem to be a good recipe for success.

You make this claim to having a superior level of playing experience with out actually knowing any facts. That's more of the same. The replies made were in response to your illogical comment.

Its illogical to you because your not very bright.

Tonight Detroit kicks the extra point for a 7-3 moral victory.
Yay

this is beyond, we cannot have nice things...

Its illogical to because your not very bright.

That kind of retort my friend will get you banned from him replying to you!
I enjoy never having a moronic hyperbolic discussion with that DBag!!
He is a superior hockey brain everything he writes is pure fact, so pray he bans you.

I would have more respect if they sent us a letter like the Rangers did.

That's right .. everything Fletcher and his cronies do is wrong, its a crapshow, clownshow and so on and so on ...

I hate to break it to you all, but Cam York is not Cale Makar. He is a 21 year old promising defensive prospect that needs to continue to play and gain experience. I and most people around hockey would prefer to not rush prospects and give them the time they need to develop both in their game and physically so when they do become an NHL regular, they have a fighting chance of succeeding.

I really don't understand the logic of this and other posts on the same vein. Ron Hextall was probably the most conservative GM in hockey when it came to not rushing his prospects, but now because Fletcher wants to do the EXACT SAME THING, he is being reamed for it. It just shows the continued BIAS and HYPOCRACY from some on this forum.

This is your flavor of the week...day..errr minute opinion now

Yes, the article just didn't slam Fletcher enough for your liking, eh? I will say this quote must have really hurt when you read it:

"It’s astonishing how Hextall drafted Patrick when Cale Makar was still available on the board. Now, Patrick isn’t even a Flyer and Makar is using the 2021-22 season to establish himself as the Norris Trophy favorite."

What do you think Clarkie? "None of our scouts wanted Nolan Patrick!" Yup, that's what I thought.

What else do you have for us prophet?

Hmmm ... let me think for a second ... oh ya .. you're a loser!
