Geez
Couts misses an EN and all of a sudden he's a terrible player, won't ever score, is a bust, and apparently Schenn is a huge bust at the age of 22

This I why I rarely come on here is because of these types of morons, geez. Grow up.

I think guys are just making playful jabs for the most part. It's gonna be ok

Easy little fella. No one said he stinks. He just can't score. Ever. In any situation.

They're being 100% serious
It's every game.

Pretty sickening actually. Yes the team sucks, pretty sure evey team for through a poopty phase. This could be our time of shiftiness.

Brayden Schenn infuriates me.

There. I said it.

How soft was he in that last defensive sequence?

A Better statement would be who's been another guy who had been able to bury one other than Vinny?
That's what I thought, nobody

Guys 20 years old. Might as well give up on him 15 games into the season cause he can't catch a break

No offense rocko, but bSchenn and Coots have to me at least, been pretty dissapointing.

Can't wait for him to be on the team for 2 years then for everyone to start scrutinizing him like we do with all young players! Yay!!

I don't think people are giving up on him. If anything he gets more of a pass then most because Flyers fans really want him to succeed. But the team is bad and people are frustrated. You have to understand that.

A future top shutdown Center who shut down the best player in the world at the time at the age of 18?
- FLYERSROCK!


If I have to hear again about how Datsyuk V2 shut down Malkin in that series.

Malkin had 8 points in 6 games , where did that shut down happen?

Shutting him down would have been oh I don't know Malkin doesn't average over a point a game in a 6 game series.

I hate when guys take penalties and instead of immediately battling for the puck for the whistle, they're shrugging their shoulders about the call. Quit playing. Infuriating

- flyer_nutter

Couts played on the 4th line rookie year
3rd line last year on a pretty bad team
3rd line, no chance at the top 6 on a terrible team thus far

Tell me how him being an absolute rock defensively is disappointing?
I guess shutting down Malkin 11/12 was disappointing?

Schenn I can get. But these guys are (frank)ing young. Look what happened with JVR
Everyone ran him out the door at a tender age
Then he got a chance
And now look how good he's playing

Don't give up on young players

Its not the same situation, but to completely give them a pass isnt what a lot of people will do.

The whole "they are young" thing is fine and all, but MANY players come into the league, or at the age Coots/BSchenn are at, contribute in more ways.

My personal favorite was the 'mini-stick' crap w/ Pitkanen... we'd all kill for a homegrown 40+ pt dman right now, but we had no trouble chasing that guy out of town all over something as inane as an unconventional equipment preference.

JVR also showed a hell of a lot more than either one of these kids. Not getting into this rocko, we have our own thoughts.

I am just not as "high" on Coots/BSchenn. It has nothing to do with a "Flyer Fan Mentality" but more so my thoughts on the specific players.

He had one goal while coots marked him and the only reason he got it was because Malkin went the other way when coots went in on a short handed rush......that's why you have to hear about it

I'll bring you down, Cole Cassels has 4 goals he was taken 13 picks after we took Tyrell Goulbourne in the 3rd round of this past draft.

If he could stay on the ice agreed, 40+ points and 25 mins a night

Guess he wasn't tough enough for some people.
