morton worries me. he always seems to keep them off balance. the exact type of pitcher that gives them fits. crafty and mixes speeds and hits his spots. no teeing off on fastballs.

strider is a stud and looked really sharp. that inning just became blood in the water. its nice to see it happen to the opposition for a change.


who do you put out for the phillies if its up to you?

Im not sure...depending if wheeler can go game 5, I go Falter to start to give Ranger another day.

I agree. Game 5 in Atlanta isn't ideal. Would it be played Monday?

hell still get paid its just that the Phils have 4 DHs in their line up that kills him here, especially if they go after Turner and or Boegarts

Torts flat out said Hodgson wasn't ready to be an NHL player. Ouch.

Wow! I was wondering why Hodgson only had 4 minutes of ice time. I didn't see the game bc of my old school cable. I liked what I saw of Hodgson last season as a role player. Why did he make the roster if Torts says he isn't ready?

Is a good question. Who knows, maybe he was encouraged and wanted to see a little more.....maybe they thought there was a better chance Zac would get claimed on waivers and free up the money/roster spot.

Jackson cates now up, but our depth is looking a bit bleak with these injuries already.

Other people in the org pushed hard for him to be there. Chuck, Lappy, probably more.

This shows that Torts is now the loudest voice in the room, lol.

My cable bill is outrageous. How about yours? I pay extra for the sports package. Why should I expect to watch a Flyers game?

Another reason why stats do not tell the whole story. With Owen Tippet getting injured and Torts seeing Hogson struggling, Torts shortened the bench to only 10 forwards. So naturally as the game went along the Flyers were tired and the Devils took over. Burying your head in the stat sheet tells you the Flyers lost the possession battle and gave up lots of shot attempts. However watching the game and more importantly knowing the circumstances of the game is far more valuable and accurate when assessing the performance of the team!

This is a good thing! Chuck and Lappy leave lots to be desired. Time for a new voice! If guys don't play the way Torts wants them to he will protest and those protests will only get louder as he gets more comfortable here!

I was thinking the same thing, and that came across also in episode 4 if the standard. You can start to see how woeful the flyers staff was in evaluating players before Torts arrived!
