If you forgot what RJ Umberger looked like in a Flyers uniform you can go on Flyers Instagram

We'll probably gain in that exchange. I will say that I think Read has been playing much better in the last month. I mean, you know, compared to the rest of his season. Man, he is one of my favourite players. Hurts to see him and Umberger fall off so bad.

Yeah, I'm a big Read fan as well. Last year was injury related, but this year, he just can't score.. Used to be very solid offensively. Thing is though, the team is winning with him in the lineup. Umberger is just toast.

Defensemen are a really hard sell to win the MVP or rookie MVP... its almost purely a points race to win sadly.

I'm ok if ghost finishes in the top three.

It is such an outstanding rookie class this year.

You're such a glass is half full kinda guy. No one ever gets pissed at you do they? I imagine there are lots of hugs given in your life.

thanks

I come here to escape the poop in my real life, so with the Flyers it's all good for me

I recently watched the movie The Big Short about the 2008 mortgage crisis stock market crash and how those wall street banker bastards got away with swindling the little people and then got bailed out

that pissed me off big time

very entertaining and educational movie, I would recommend it

I hope Ghost finishes strong and we make the playoffs. You never know, with all the Canadian squads out, maybe media starts to watch the Flyers and he starts to get more press. I'd like to see him win it, and I think he's the most deserving thus far, but I just know he'll finish third behind MCdavid and Panarin. It's kind of like the G situation with Team Canada. No one seems to care that he's the top scorer in the league since 2010.

listening to xm nhl radio yesterday both guys felt ghost was in the running and one of them was leaning ghost because his points and play have been such huge difference makers

Me too.

Really, all I've wanted is for him to be in the conversation. And he is. He deserves to be.

I think the other candidates come with asterisks and caveats, but I'd understand if they won too. I just think Ghost deserves recognition of being a finalist.

really the only personal award I care about for him is the points record...but even if he doesnt get that, at this point he has his name in the record books in several other places

I have heard and read that from pretty many people. They talk about Parnarin having a great supporting cast and how McDavid really isn't playing meaningful games. They said the way Gostisbehere has changed the Flyers and doing it during important games on a defense that was supposed to be pretty mediocre really has impressed them.

I had many a time I walked out of an exam with that thought and got the exam back with a B or C. Who knows how but it happened.

We're all praying for a curve. (frank)ing brutal

And next wednesday I have my seminar, which- if you fail- you fail the class and have to take the year over again. The cortisol levels are through the roof right now jesus (frank)

Ekblad and Myers have won it in the fairly recent history. But they didn't have Panarin/McDavid types in their class, either. If Ghost's biggest challenge was the rookie versions of Matt Duchesne and Jimmy Howard or Mark Stone and Johnny Gaudreau, he'd have much better shot.

pnt

Anemias
Neonatal TPN
Peds nutrition
Peds rehydration
"Intro to cancer" which is basically the side effects and pharmacology and pearls of a whole (frank) ton of common cancer drugs/biologics
Leukemias
Neutropenic Fever

No doubt the hardest exam I've ever took. Took me 2 hours to get through 40 questions. (frank)kkk that.

It seemed like every question was a trick question

We had a teacher who was teaching a bunch of mechanical engineers an electrical engineering circuit class that we were required to take. He said on day 1 that he didn't grade on a curve, that he had both passed and failed full classes before. Well, we all failed, and he graded on a curve. The people who just barely failed got an A, and the people who failed poorly got an F.

I got an F. Then I retook it the next semester with a different professor and got an A, on no curve.
