You're talking about a guy who gave up a chance to play in the 2nd best pro league in the world (KHL) because he's a picky eater and didn't want to acclimate, choosing to go to England instead. Sound like a guy who will do anything to keep playing/win?

I’m talking about a guy who is trying out in the best league in the world currently. So make me understand your argument.

When the NHL began to Phase out fighting, I was here. The point at that time, at least from the Flyers standpoint was to get guts like Riley Cote and Jody Shelley off the roster because they simply weren’t good hockey players. They skated their first shift of the period and ended the game with four total minutes of ice time. Reasonable. Comparing Chris Stewart to Jay Rosehill, Riley Cote, Zac Rinaldo or Jody Shelley isn’t the same thing.

Unacceptable.
200 foot or death

boom goes morin

Now I would love to see a Sam Morin fight, on the other hand.

I’m sure we’ll cheer when Morin pounds someone but if Stewart does it, trying to earn a job against our most hated rival, it’s laughable.

Figure it out.

No double standards here.

Dude he's shot. Get over it. The difference is other guys can skate and contribute to playing at today's pace of play.

He already played his way out of the league once. Guys usually don't ever come back from that.

Then don’t offer a tryout if the decision was made he can’t play hockey anymore in 2017. It’s not that hard a concept to grasp.

Why is it dumb? The Flyers were once built on staged fighting.

Do you like UFC or MMA? ...Fighting on a stage.

If Stewart didn't have a connection with Fletcher, he wouldn't be here.

But he does have a connection with fletcher. Will Stewart make the team? Probably not but you don’t offer a tryout if you’re not serious about the guy.

Are they selling standing room tickets now? I might actually get to a game this season then.
