I am at least encouraged by the continued scratching of Nick Schultz. It's a new NHL and this team going forward needs to figure it out without his services.

As far as Hexy building an AHL team. Kudos I suppose. But if any GM wanted to make it a priority they can get it done. Hexy just signed a bunch of career AHL stars to push this team into the playoffs. He made it a priority and it's working but its largely a team of hired guns making the biggest contributions.

I'm pretty sure the Earth will fall off of it's axis if the Flyers cough these 2 points up.

So, no pressure or anything.

If they lose this game, they're out of the playoffs. Book it.

At this stage of Schultz's career, he's actually an ideal 7th defenseman. Veteran guy, still decent wheels, tough and come into the lineup in a pinch in the event of an injury and can adapt quickly.

How do you figure? Weal and Leier are their 2 leading scorers. Both Stolarz and Lyon have been playing great in goal. Wilcox, NAK, and Fazleev are in the top-5 in +/- (as is Weal). Sure, Brennan, Carey, and Connor are contributing, but every AHL teams has those guys. The Phantoms are getting legit contributions from many of their young players.

Regardless of the outcome. Win, lose, or overtime/shootout loss, just shut it down.

Ok he needs to be removed from the league for about 20 or more game. That whole segment is just garbage from him.

well they did play there when the spectrum roof blew off, so it makes sense to return to their home away from home.
