Looks good to me! I'd rather have Ghost down in the A than be a 7th defenseman though, especially with how much time he is missing this year. I'd also rather resign Del Zotto than Schultz. Other than that, get this man a job with the Flyers!

Zuccarello is intriguing for the Coots line. I'm sure the Rangers end up resigning him. But how good would that line look with Zucc and Read in his natural RW spot. That line looked great with Akeson on RW and Read playing LW. Zuccarello is like Akeson on steroids with all the ingredients to mesh with Coots and Read.
One can dream.

Gotta give Umberger points for consistency, whatever line he's on is instantly made worse!

If we're going to dream of LWs to play with Coots and Read from the Rags, might as well just go with Rick Nash

I wouldnt want Zuccarello. I cant even stand that dudes face. The Matt Read love affair needs to end. Is it me or has he lost a major step in terms of speed? Also he has almost no puck skills. He is north and south, shoot and pass. No stickhandling whatsoever. This team is boring....

If they lose tonight, it's time to put to rest any hope of making the playoffs and time to start moving vets for draft picks. I'd be open to moving any of the following:

All 8 of our Dmen
VLC (be willing to eat salary to make it happen)
Umberger (yeah, good luck with that, I know)
Bellemare (doubt anyone wants him, but if they do...)
Read
Rinaldo (see Bellemare)

I know people don't want to hear it, but I'd listen to offers for Schenn and Coots as well. You never know what offer might fly your way involving them. All I'm saying is, they aren't untouchable in my mind... as much as I like them both.

You could always make a Zombie comic. I am sure you could come up with an epic collection of scenarios

YES to all of the above. But can we at least beat Toronto on Saturday first before any of these moves. I just can't handle listening to these jack off fans when the Flyers loose to these jerks.

That 3rd goal... softest I've seen in a long time.

In the goalie's defense, it WAS Andrew Gordon. We're not talking about some hack like Giroux.

If they lose tonight, the Flyers are not going to bail on the season, nor should they. Now would be the worst time to have a fire sale. I'm comforted by the fact that Hextall is not that foolish to bail on the team now, and start trading whoever he can.

Thanks, Bill. I didn't think he was roving around too much, personally.. I mean, I did notice he was pulling out of position a little bit more than he should, but I certainly didn't think it was enough to warrant this many games as a healthy scratch.. Is he not listening to the coaches, and refusing to work on it in practice?
- WarriorHockey21


Honestly, I think he is practicing fine. But MDZ came here knowing (or should have known) there wouldn't be much slack on the rope. He damn near found himself out of the NHL this season and there is a tightrope he has to walk for quite awhile, especially with someone such as Chief as his head coach.

That's ok, let the leafs win now. That way it will be much more fun when they end the season with 10 straight losses, miss the playoffs by one point and, as an added bonus, go absolutely crazy because they traded their 1st for a deadline rental!
