No that's not what he said at all. He said "11 scouts at flyers game/flyers trade coming?

With the emphasis on the question mark.

"Every scout in the NHL is out there tonight, with contracts in their pockets, and they're looking for talent. For winners. OOOOOOOOOH. All my years of publicity. All the fashion shows and radiothons for nothing... They come here tonight... to scout the Chiefs... the toughest team in the Federal League! Not this! Buncha... pussies."

i have a feeling that there will be a big shake up if the team doesn't play well tonight. Be it a trade or coaching change, I think something is going to happen. Snider will not stand by and be embarrassed by this team!

While it can never be ruled out, it's very doubtful that a big shake up would happen. Although I think if it's not straightened out soon, and progress made. The coach will start to be looked at.

Or maybe they will give him that one last stressful jolt into the ER.

He yells at them every year like a fool. His cheques put them on the ice. Go turn a corolla into a mustang.

Good faceoff man and PKer, but not a good 5 on 5 player.
- MJL



Because the rest of the team is doing so well 5 on 5.. Not saying him being gone is our problem (obviously) but who on this team are you confident in winning a draw when you need it?

Well, if Coburn isn't going, it's gonna be kinda difficult to not see what we've seen since he has been out. They are going to give up goals, likely at least three. The hope is that they don't give up more

Bellemare was a really accomplished defensive player in Sweden... and we know Swedes know two-way hockey.

Umby can play wherever, up and down the lineup, any F position. That's why he was attractive. He's no stranger to a 4th-line... just ask Todd Richards.

The point is to share the hard defensive minutes with competent players... not to get hung up on line designations. Why trade for that kind of player, when you already have candidates in-house?

Berube has other options who can take on some of the defensive burden that Couturier has to carry, he just refuses to spread the load. It's as simple as that. There's no reason other than coaching decisions that see Couturier getting so much of the burden.

Even if guys like Bellemare and Umberger are not exactly suited to be shut down guys, part of the reason they were acquired-both implied and stated-was that they are good two way players.

The line designation poop is just getting old.
