What kind of season was John Scott having when he got in?

All star games are meaningless
- Just5

Scott got in due to a prank that was started that went viral.

Today is a perfect illustration of what Tortorella’s job is the next three years. This team is going to suck bad while it rebuilds. Tortorella is here to take all the hate while Briere builds in the background. Surprising more fans can’t see it.

Did anyone tell Tortorella that? I'm not going to be surprised when many fans wake up to the reality at some point.

Well, I’m starting to hate him!

Big bad Torts 😂

Think we could get ROR in here on a one year deal? High dollar amount like 8 mil? Be a pure money grab for him and flip at the deadline

Correct

Was it a bad season? It was his second highest career total.

I remember watching him all year and always thinking...how does he have this many points.

Hayes time in Philadelphia I thought this was his worst season, induvial performance (not team). Yet when looking at his stat line he apparently had the best season of his career.

I know I was shocked when Hayes was selected for the ASG over Konecny, I didn't even have him as a slight possibility to be the selected Flyer even if TK was injured.

Do you think signing him then retaining 50% would be worth the 5th rounder they will get because of...reasons.

Looks like CLB out on Michkov

Hayes had a really good first half of the season and then due to how he was being used and treated. Basically checked out in the second half.

That settles it. Columbus it is.

So he got feelings hurt, grabbed his puck and went home?

That settles it. Columbus it is.

No, it's time for Columbus to ruin another big center career.

"Fog of War" - misdirection at its finest. I do enjoy the pre draft rumors.

I wouldn't say that exactly but I think he read the writing on the wall. It's human nature. Unhappy players tend to not play well sometimes. There was no reason for it.

It's all Torts' fault! Everything that is wrong in the world is Torts' fault. Damn guy...not good for anything!

Would be bold of ANA to leave Fantilli on the board for CLB.

No, it's not all Tortorella's fault but he didn't help any and that was his job. He hurt the team with how he handled Hayes.

How did Torts handle Johansen and what he ended up fetching?

And so should the Flyers be out on Michkov. I said it months ago, with the uncertainty in Russia with players and the experience the Flyers just had with Fodotov, I can't see the Flyers risking their 7th pick on this player. Now I will openly admit I am biased against Russian players. I think they are dogs for the most part and I don't believe you can win if your best player is a Russia player. I don't mean to be predudice in any way, just giving my opinion. It's not personal. I know people will cry Ovechkin, Ovechkin, Ovechkin but for all the talent that player has, he is not a winner IMO and has only won one cup in 18 seasons, and that only happened because he bought in to Trotz's system for one season. IMO the best thing for the Flyers is if Michkov is selected in the top 6, because then that means a really good player will be there for the Flyers at 7. If Michkov is there for the Flyers at 7, I stay clear of him, but of course I don't let the Caps know that in case they want to pay to move up one spot.

Huberdeau….”very much in play”

sanheim and nic d the other way.............
