Everyone calm down.. This kid jumped in the rankings due to his strong play and work ethic. I'm ok with it the scouts know more than we do and they seem to have a knack for qmjhl players

Laughton can't play with the Phantoms this upcoming Season. It's make the Flyers., or back to Juniors.

Even better. Keep him on junior.

Nope, not at all. I would be surprised at all if scheneider start 40 games as the "back up"
I just think that to unseat the monarch in his last year, either marty falters big, or sxhneider posts something just ridiculous like a .980 and a 1.0

Maybe Marty says it's ok?

It'll just be interesting to see how the Devils handle it.

He's already played 3 Junior Seasons. Unless he's absolutely awful in Camp. He's pretty much going to make the team.

With 5 games remaining, I believe they were in the #4 draft position. I will take Morin + the confidence building over Seth Jones 8 days a week.

6-foot-6 #Flyers top Morin showing sense of humor: "My dad is just 6-foot, my mom 5-7. I don't know where I'm from. I gotta talk to my mom."

And then this pic:


I wonder what Pronger was doing 18 years ago?

And now we know why he liked the kid.

Pair up big boys with Midgets?

Schenn-?
Morin-Gus
Ollie- Ghost

- Yosimar89

But look at what you just put there.
In 4 years, that could be the group and all but schenn will be home grown.

I think I would like to know how good he is with the puck.

Maybe I'm on an island with this thought but I think I would traded Scott Laughton to a team looking to move their first rounder if possible. Laughton is coming off a good regular junior season but the Flyers have a chance to balance out their roster. I'm not sure I even want Laughton to make the team this year. Unless we sign Lecavalier I'm hoping we find more experience in the middle and get better at the dot. I would be all for having Laughton play with the Phantoms and picking up a guy like David Steckel.

- dingo8urbaby

I kinda agree, if it comes down to moving a young center i would prefer for Coots and Schenn to stay. I do believe both of them have higher upside than Laughton, but he's not gonna pull in as much as the both of those guys.

I think for one season they will both be fine. Schneider was put in an awful situation in vancouver and dealt with it just fine. If Marty pulls a Favre, then they may have a problem

While beautiful in theory, past history has not been on our side. Let's hope they all develop nicely.

and they basically dressed an AHL d-corp for those games. How would you have suggested they lost those games?

No wonder he didn't need to see him play in person. He already knows how he plays.

Also (frank) Dallas and their horrible uni's in the face.


I went back and looked over the pages as the picks were being made, comedic gold

How did they lose all the meaningful games played before those games?
Same formula.
