Did he or didn't he do it?

He did it. Much like I could do it. Doing it well is another story.

He played on the PK, but that didn't make him a good PKer. The report I heard was that he wanted a raise and a multi-year deal so the Flyers looked elsewhere, and White then realized he overpriced himself. But still, I'd prefer him and his contract over Gordon and Weise and theirs.

I never said White was a "good penalty killer". He was put in the role. He could do it, which is more than what Weise is or has done here.

Gordon was in that role. Before he was waived.

If you want to keep playing semantics.

I can play this game all day. White was a nightly player who was never waived.

NHL has named a LGBT ambassador for each team...

Philadelphia Flyers = Claude Giroux

There's a joke in there somewhere.

No doubt it's very cool that the league has done it. One shocking name on this list is Andrew Shaw who was accused of using a gay slur in a game and now has been named ambassador for the Canadiens.

Could be similar to how when a guy gets hurt in the workplace he becomes the safety supervisor haha.

Shocking or not at all coincidence? A sort of atonement, good publicity after it.

It's fun to just play a game all day though, isn't? I really need to start the Witcher 2.

Especially when you're better than everyone else it, which clearly at this one, I am.

Regardless of what pride tells the Feanor's or the Mononoke's of the world, Arizona is getting more value for their buck in Ryan White than we are Boyd Gordon and Dale Weise combined....flaws and all. You'd be foolish to debate this.

And yet he's still takes the dumb penalties

http://www.nhl.com/stats/...,gte,&sort=penaltyMinutes

And has only played 36 games. So I'm betting he's had some scratches thrown in too.

Dumb penalties. Scratches. Benches. Waived. Vacations without pay. Gambling addiction. Late to show up to games until the middle of the second. What's your point? He's still more productive on a worse team who is not going to make the playoffs.

You didn't even consider injury but either way, Ryan White on one skate would probably do better than the Gordon and Weise.

I'm a little upset I wasn't included.

I would rather the Flyers pay Ryan White 1 million dollars to play in Arizona than they pay Ryan White 1 million dollars to play for the Flyers
