They're being pretty consistent right now. Three consecutive years of being a bubble team.

Where's all this talent coming from next year? Lindblom, Morin, maybe Sanheim?

- mayorofangrytown


Honestly, really?
Maybe Sanheim?

Is there a scouting source anywhere that doesnt rave about the Flyers defensive prospects which arent limited to the two you listed? What about their goalie prospects? At this point they have some nice supporting type offensive prospects but where they need help are 1 or 2 high end offensive prospects.

Short and sweet: The more enemies you kill, the stronger you become. The more things your sword cuts the sharper it gets.

Even deeper: By defeating your foe, you are proving your existence over theirs. You are claiming your right to the universe by ending their claim. The one who is the last to exist when the universe is at its end can claim existence as their own and remake reality in their own image.

I drive myself to the edge of madness trying to explain the truth.

It's so simple. Elegant like a knife point. It explains - this is not hyperbole, this is the farthest thing from exaggeration - EVERYTHING.

But you lay it out and they stare at you like you've just been exhaling dust. Maybe they're missing some underlying scaffold of truth. Maybe they are all propped on a bed of lies that must be burned away.

Why does anything exist?

No no no no no don't reach for that word. There's no 'reason'. That's teleology and teleology will stitch your eyelids shut.

Why do we have atoms? Because atomic matter is more stable than the primordial broth. Atoms defeated the broth. That was the first war. There were two ways to be and one of them won. And everything that came next was made of atoms.

Atoms made stars. Stars made galaxies. Worlds simmered down to rock and acid and in those smoking primal seas the first living molecule learned to copy itself. All of this happened by the one law, the blind law, which exists without mind or meaning. It's the simplest law but it has no worshippers here (out there, though, out there - !)

Orest Kindrachuk is one of my favorite unsung Flyers heroes.
Wish I could be there.

So Rubtsov on LW? Hmmm

The Ghost thing to me is a second year player, not even a full first year, is now struggling a bit.

Okay, just gonna say this once:

Everyone, just cut it out now. I don't care if talk strays away from hockey/The Flyers, but any President Trump is going to turn this place into even more of a tire fire than usual. I'm not a mod, so I don't have power, but please people, do not start flaming back and forth based on your approval/disapproval of Trump. Please.

We're talking next season here. You think Sanheim is a lock to play for the Flyers next year? That why I said maybe. Not because I don't think here's a grade A prospect.

I've heard more than a few people who know a lot more about prospects than I do say that Myers may be farther along at this point.

I don't come here for the in depth political discussion. I come here to poop on AMac.

Edit: And to learn the facts.

Sure it does.

Gostisbehere is being ruined by the villainous coach Dave Hakstol, who aims to extract all offensive talents from Shayne Gostisbehere in order to mold him into the next Nick Schultz.
