Right, hence the question.

What do you see, when you know, you actually watch the games that impresses you and why, you know, do these things you see actually escape the assessment of you know, the guys at Hockey's Future?

I was legit shocked Comcast didn't demote him after his interview with Holmgren.

Rumor has it the Colangelos want to bring in one of their own Phoenix area TV people to replace him

No. It's because we actually, you know, watch the games instead of looking at a nonsense number on Hockey's Future.

I haven't looked at that site since Bill wrote for them. I have seen him a handful of times at the WJC and one game with the Phantoms and like what I see. But more so I go by what Bill says because he watches A LOT of the Swedish League games

I'll be shocked if Mase hasn't ripped his groin yet. The caps get such good scoring chances.

I would have paid to see Holmgren punch him square in the nose

they are absolutely a playoff team but the difference between a playoff team and a cup contender like Washington is pretty wide.

Oh, I wanna believe. I hope you guys are right.

Konecny is a top 6 type player and seems to be a playmaking center. Who is the odd man out in the future between Giroux, Couts and him?

I browse their forums to read about prospects but that's about it. The site itself is meh. Those ratings are rarely updated and just seem like they're pulled out of a hat at times.

I don't watch the SEL, but I read people (like Bill), who have and they rave. I've seen him in the WJC the last 2 years too. Could be a very nice compliment on the middle 6. A slightly worse skating but better finishing Raffl is how I think of him.

Konecny will likely transition to RW. Not that that doesn't create a log jam as well.

Meaning they made the playoffs this year with the 7th best record so they are deserving......but the difference between the Flyers and the Capitals is wide

Idk if he's ever actually played any extended time at center in the OHL. He's primarily a RW, but this year he also played some LW. Yay versatility! But idk if he's capable of playing center.

I don't mind losing to a better team. I didn't see the Flyers winning this series. but it drives me nuts to see them man handled. this team works hard and plays physical but they are just too small.
