Flyers now have the toughest and most intimidating GM, coach combination in hockey.

I think he looks fine physically... its mentally where he needs to continue to improve. Imagine going through everything he has over the past two years.. Its gonna take a little bit of time for his confidence to be back up, and to have full faith in his ability again.

He doesn't look fine physically. He's moving very slow and has had opportunities to let a slap shot go, but either took a wrister or passed.

This was a guy who was mobile, had puck skills and could fire the puck. He wasn't a shutdown d-man, but he was much better than he's looked.

I guess I'm watching a different game.

Blog updated with post-skate clips of Berube, Giroux and Hartnell discussing the coaching change and today's skate.

Nice, you would think they would tell the cleaning lady with the vacuum to wait until after the press time.

It's not like the Assistant GM was the shy, retiring type either.

For the roster composition that we have, that's what I'd roll out, to be honest -- if you have to know if Brayden Schenn is a 2LW, then you have to play Jake Voracek with him, since he's one of the few players on the roster who Schenn has absolutely killed it with.

You could put Couturier with Simmonds and Talbot and Read on the top line, and arguably have more defensive balance, but not a whole lot's going to matter if Giroux and Hartnell don't start scoring.

The defensive pairings are obvious: He's going to hide Meszaros/Streit, Grossmann/Coburn are going to play some of the hardest minutes known to mankind, and Timonen/Schenn pick up the rest.

For the roster we have at this moment, that's how I would have done it.

I'm hesitant about the top line this way, but I still want to see it in action

Always sprays Lysol on the days with the highest allergens, too.

Have you sat in a hockey locker room that isn't clean?

EDIT: Sorry you have never "felt" clean.
