Or is he ?

I think it depends on Giroux. If G is will to sign an extension with the team that wants him the most, the return can be very good. However if teams feel G will just go back to the Flyers in the off season, they will not give up too much.

Landed log out indefinelty. Pavelski resigned. The pieces are falling in place for a significant haul. Fletcher’s in for a feast.

I haven’t seen this confirmed anywhere else though.

Nevermind, saw this on Friedman’s Twitter now.

do you ever blame a player other than RR. ? When any other player isnt playing well, you blame Yeo, or Chuck. When its RR you blame the player. You talk like frost has earned to be the #1C on this team, and he hasnt shown anything. OR maybe its just hextall guys that you dont blame, its everyone elses fault.

The message more recently has been "Keep doing the little things right and add the offense back into it."
- bmeltzer

Sounds like exactly the right message to a young player trying to find his game.

I would not be surprised if no Dman are traded off this roster, in fact I could see the Flyers adding Connor Murphy as their 3rd RHS dman to play with York next year. Then the defense would be:

Provey - Ellis
Sanheim - Risto
York - Murphy

Not bad! Murphy should be affordable coming off this current deal.

Risto at the 4 🤮

Connor Murphy is already re-signed through 25-26

This sounds like the right message. I hope he finishes the season on a strong note and goes into the off season and next year with the right mind frame. I think eventually will grow into a #1 defenseman that can help a team win.

Never realized until today that Rasmus Ristolainen translates in Finnish to High Danger Scoring Chance Machine.

Yeah, ABC keeps using it. It’s fine for replays but useless for live action

Either a drone or one of those cable cams they use for NFL

I like when they use it on the PP and the view is like sitting behind the opposite goal

Not sure if this has been discussed here already (apologies if so), but the Landeskog injury does seem to open up a space for Giroux at LW there. Indeed, if they put Landeskog on IR, they fit Giroux in easily. Then the former can pull a Kucherov and return for the playoffs.

From the their coaches comments it sounds like they think Landeskog will be back for “the stretch run” so I don’t think he’s going to be out too long. And it’s also something Landeskog has been dealing with for a while so it’s something they’ve likely planned out.

Did ABC even say what this penalty was for? God their coverage is brutal. The playoffs are going to be rough.

Ray Ferraro when the Canes are on the PP. "Not sure what Ristolainen is doing just standing there"

Is the stretch run the playoffs though? Lets see how Nicuschin does there. I don't think he has played in as talented a line since his days with Benn and Seguin, has he?

I assume the stretch run of the end of the season. They would’ve had Landeskog get this sooner if it interfered with his availability for the playoffs imo.

They already have the roster space and the cap space to add Giroux. They don't have to do anything.
