Can't hurt at all to try Mckegg, who knows he might come up here gain some confidence then go back to the AHL and take a step forward down there. Its amazing sometimes how guys struggle in the A, and then somehow do amazing in the NHL.

And whoever suggested Matthias....I wouldn't mind him at all either.

Where does everyone think hes going to play? I dont really understand the need to call him up...

Should I visit? is it Bucket list worthy?
- poohcrumbs

Nope,

I took a pic of the sign... for a laugh.

leave kadri there

that line (cept last game) is working.. dont eff with it
- Dozzer

Oh i agree Bruce, but I'm not the guy making the decision

you guys seem so sure..

my opinion is he was moved from centre to wing before his pro career started for what is likely a very good reason
- Dozzer

"you guys" is a sweeping generalization... I'm not part of the "you guys" you speak of... I'd leave Kadri at the #1 C before moving JVR there... I'm just saying, JVR has been sautéed in awesome sauce this year so far... what if, just maybe, he moves to C and it's not completely horrible?

Or like you said, negative ninny, maybe he moves there and gets hit by a zamboni... all or none of it could happen

Ummmm, how many centres do we have on this team right now?

Seravalli’s argument is the biggest load of steaming crap I’ve ever read.

How bad did you Frank up, if you are shopping last years first pick overall...

My God, what if JVR is beast mode at C too?
- SofaKingBored

I doubt...it will mostly likely f up his game.

we have 3 centres.. 1 of which is a fringe NHLer

its the old mantra.. dont fix what isnt broken

JVR is playing great on the wing.. why (frank) with that?

Yeah, that's actually my stance... wanna draw our swords now?

The Flyers have a history of drafting centres, gives them flexibility. They then shift them to the wing if they have too many. It's a Flyer thing.

I doubt...it will mostly likely f up his game.

thats what i think too

Don't be so hard on Bozie.

Oh...wait.

much better.. not as in your face

we have 3 centres.. 1 of which is a fringe NHLer
- Dozzer

If JVR is trying C

we have 4

the fringe NHLer was Captain of the Marlies and has NHL experience and was already 1st call up earlier this season and has stuck around cut the guy some slack

What do you want an All Star on your 4th line ...its a few shifts a game

much better.. not as in your face
- Dozzer

You didn't just say that?!?!?

In YOOOOOOOOUR FACE. (Flashback to those stupid commercials and the school of trashtalking.).

nope.. he hasnt played centre since his first year of university

it wasnt a flyer thing at all.

tough loss on Bolland

JVR is not a centre.. this could (frank) up his whole year if it throws his game off

- bixll

I knew the (frank)ed up as soon as they didn't pick Murray or Galch, to me Galch was always going to be the better player
