How many points to people expect bottom 6 players who get limited or no PP time to score in an 82 game season?

As well as one of the most overpaid 4th lines ever. over 10mm.

Great point. Let's put Lindblom, Patrick and Konecny on the 4th line to make it cheaper and win the all important best 4th line under $5m competition.

Compared to the rivals 4th line for a PO spot it does not stand out but it have somewhat a better smell to it than last seasons 4th line.

My gut tells me the injuries and his size overall at the NHL level played a role in him losing quickness and that signature 1st speed burst up the wing. He was such a quick attack option in his 1st few seasons. It's a shame he lost that step.

I think I would be happy with anything over 50 pts combined assuming they play about 20% of 5v5 play

The Arizona Flyers games last season is proving my point

Yes, a 2 game sample proves which team has a better 4th line. Way to go, sporto.

In 14/15, Umberger played in 69 games and scored 9 goals and 15 points. Assuming that our 4th line players are able to match his lofty play that season, simply multiplying by 3 gives you 27 goals and 45 points. So I don't think it's impossible for 20 goals and 50 points.

around 20, for a 4th line player even less.

forget what he is paid for now, with him and 2 other skates not VDV or Bellemare the 4th line will be much better.

I believe the Flyers will have much better lines this season, not just 1 line the other team has to defend. Match ups should be much better for all 4 lines, they should score more.

Weise had an awful offensive year last year but there is no question in my mind that he is a significantly better player than Ryan White is.
- MJL


I honestly dont think he is, If you had put Ryan white with Schenn and Couturier if wouldve put up at least 10 pts more than Weise did, and I dont think last season was an aberration, he shot 8.5% and had 8 goals? Guy is 4th line fodder getting paid 3 mil
