Couturier has spent, maybe two months in his entire career with wingers who complimented his offensive abilities and did well during it.

Now he's saddled with an injured Lecavalier playing out of position & just got Read back, and we're back to "He's never going to produce"

Jesus, you people are the most fickle bastards in the world-and the people saying that Couturier isn't going to develop or that Schenn would never be more than a 3rd liner are the ones saying that they need to draft and develop.

That takes patience. It's going to be an up and down process...and you complain about the developing young guys now. Can't wait until Morin or Hagg arrive and have a bad game, and then they'll be no more than future 3rd pair stiffs.

Who said he was never going to produce? Relax.

Its kind of weird. Im stepping away from this convo because I see it turning into a pissing match but lets read the whole post, and context of what is being posted before we react with "fickle bastards"

Instead of the negative-radar going off and assuming we are saying to burn the logo, and take Snider out to the firing squad.

Maybe they should just start the game down a goal or 2, it seems thats the only time they get their butts in gear

it amazes me how often when the flyers make a bad mistake it either ends up in the net, a clownshow in their own end for 2 minutes, or a penalty. rarely do they erase it quickly without incident.

yup, its the same old story

BTW I know VL is a well respected vet and all that jazz, but right now he needs to centering the 4th line at even strength

Hartnell!!

I'm just so tired of hearing the same old poop....guys goes on a little run and everyone's smoking his Richard...hits a rough patch, oh he sucks...

And it's the same people that say over and over they need to draft and develop that have little patience for the developing young guys.

Just bugs me.

And yes, Vinny needs to be at center. Be it the 4th line or 2nd, he needs to be away from Couturier

Just having some fun, but some of us talk about that, while others talk about Grossmann or Laviolette.

You and me baby, were nothin' but mammals.

I actually like VL on the 4th line at even strength. An eventual 4th line of Hall-VL-Rinaldo could actually score a couple goals now and then and VL would still get time on the pp and a few shifts with Giroux and Voracek now and then.

If looking foolish with the buy-out of Bryzgalov, do you think they demote LeCavalier, another big signing and this summer's shiny piece to the fourth line before they do so with Couturier?

Kind of have a vibe this is heading to OT.

I prefer to just think of us, especially on this site, as batpoop crazy and passionate in our own way. A melting pot of truculence if you will.

Mason's rebound control has been god awful since he has been on this decline. That is the glaring weakness I have seen from him

you could see that coming ...

this team reacts SO SLOW to loose pucks, especially in their own zone.
