Best thing that can happen if CC is traded is that team does not win a cup. Gets close but no cigar. This way it keeps CC hungry and a little taste of winning.

So this way he stays far way from the flyers. Abandons any thoughts of resigning.

I love Lavi and we can basically trace it all the way back to then that this teams biggest problem has always been a lack of talent. Heā€™s also easily a better coach than pretty much anyone weā€™ve had since.

Iā€™m not sure what happened in the end there though. Didnā€™t Snider say he ran the worst training camp he ever saw the year he got canned?

- hereticpride

He also said that the "Flyers don't need a fresh perspective" at the press conference defending his hiring. That seems familiar. For whatever reason, Lavi could not get Vinny L., Mark Streit and Ray Emery to deliver the big lift they expected . Talk about your deja vu all over again ...

nah our taiwanese friend that lives our the house is like 6'2" also
- 2Real


The average height for males in Taiwan is like 5'8". And its not nutrition: that's an advanced country.

Further, TmHwk I would have personally placed at about 5'10".

Pisses me off I got that wrong.

His name is escaping me but I think Arizona sent the Hawks a rental and he re-signed with the Yotes that summer. Could be wrong tho.

EDIT. Antoine Vermette. Yotes traded him to the Hawks for a 1st and a player and then he re-signed with the Yotes that summer. He didnā€™t get traded again tho.

Could be.Ek never mentions Giroux to Boston so maybe his sources or G himself are telling him there is no interest.
- Minnyhock


Boston likely wont be a target. It fits their needs but not sure it fits ours. There have been rumours Krejcji might return. At the end of the day its really going to come down to what teams offer and which team is preferred by Giroux. I dont see Giroux pulling a Hall and nixing a deal because he doesnt like it. Giroux has been loyal to this franchise and I dont feel that changes.

Everybody ignores how Sanheims legs were taken out from under him by Voracek.
- MBFlyerfan


Voracek probably saved him then. Sanheim was unquestionably getting embarrassed.

He had these three players for three regular season games before being fired and replace by Berube.

He was asked to tweak his system for the likes of Luke Schenn and Nikolas Grossmann.

I had partial season tickets the year they got Vinny. I swear they lost the first 6 games I went to. Iā€™ll never understand how people continue to buy season tickets year in and out for this mess.

They returned it around that season. That season was probably the last best season we had. Vinny and Streit were only going to survive in a purely offensive coached team. I believe this was taken away from us.

What if Chara mocked him? Since size apparently means nothing when it comes to Mount Gerbe, surely he'd be able to ragdoll a 44 year old dude right?
- PLindbergh31

Sure , go with the 6'9". 265 ripped beast....great comparison

besides, i was speaking specifically of you and bradster

Flyer takes body in corner, actually eliminates player and puck goes right to Yandle. Yandle doesnā€™t even look up, just sends it to the caps at the point

Playing him at all, let alone on the power play makes it seem like this team still thinks it has a chance.

Im sure they would argue that with both York and Ellis out he should play. But its high time Zamula got in there.


Regardless, there is ZERO reason he should be on the PP.
