Fight soon might liven them up. Not that I want Rinaldo to tangle with that gorilla Scott. But surely someone?

we'd be losing a lot of physical play then who would you have in their places?

What physical play? I'm actually shocked that Simmonds and Hartnell are in the top 10 on the Flyers in hits.

Simmer with 42 (5th place)
Hartnell with 28 (6th place)

Matt Read has 24, and I don't think I've seen him throw a hit his entire career.

Team needs a spark. Perfect time for Rosehill to knock that tomato can Scott out with one punch.

What is he waiting for?

I feel like if the Flyers can get 1, the floodgates will open.

I think the Sabres season thus far is proof of concept...

Id love it...his cap hit isnt an issue with Buffalo and Stafford is not going to find much of any success with our roster anymore. The only asset that hurts is the 2nd in 2015 as I see it.

Works perfectly. You get Hartnell, who can't create offense on his own of any kind or skate with the puck, and you get his contract which hopefully handcuffs your team and keeps you in the basement for as long as possible.

I secretly pray a team like Edmonton, desperate for any kind of grit might want Hartnell. Or still believe he provides anything of the sort consistently.

Interesting.. I insult Matt Read and he scores....

Voracek has a 7.9% shoot percentage. Feels like 0.001% he's so bad.
