Morganti agreed with what Tortorella said? That is big news.

Frost's problem over the course of his career has been his compete level. I've said it many times he needs to impose himself on the game, and when he does that he is effective. Far too often he plays on the outside of the play. Kind of waits for someone else to do something instead of taking the reigns and doing it himself. Go get the puck, win a battle. He has skill, he CAN play with edge and grit, but it doesn't happen enough. Today he should have been a maniac out there. Hitting and battling and taking chances.

I trade him in a heartbeat, hopefully they move him a deadline

You’re not going to come on here today and compare Frost and Michkov are you?

Show me where I compared Frost and Michkov as players. I compared something else.

Frost has been disappointing this year…for me anyways.

He has been disappointing to everyone. He hasn't had a good game all season in my opinion. Including today.

See Richard was sent down. He earned a longer look. Can’t waive ND. Against Flyers laws.

He is a slow starter. Just needs more time.

I believe that Frost needs to and can play with more intensity. I don't think it's because he has a natural lack of compete. I think it's because of the environment that this coach has created for him. Even when he has played well, this coach has sat him or taken away ice time or benched him in games. He's tentative because he's trying to avoid mistakes. Stopped attempting higher risk plays that a playmaker like him can make. Knowing that one poor play will see him back in the press box again. Couple that with being on an expiring contract. Reality is sinking in that Tortorella has created another situation where a player asset is devalued and the most likely course is that a change of scenery needs to happen at this point. It's not going to happen here for this player under this coach. The question then becomes which player will take his place and fill the insatiable need this coach has to need a whipping boy. Like a toddler needs a teddy bear.
