It's knot that hard after you practice a few times. Strung together a few perfect ties in a row and really got the hang of it. Such a nooseance asking people for help all the time.

Seems as if Weal is finding a groove finally. He may not be lighting up the score sheet right now but he has been dominating board battles much like last season.

2 goals and 1 assist in the last 4 games isn't bad points wise as well. Weal-Patrick-Simmonds really seem to hem teams in the zone with good pressure. Giroux-Couturier-Konecny score a lot of pretty goals off the rush. like the makeup of those two lines

Now if they can get the 2nd and 4th lines going it might really get scary.

Could be worse...the Flyers make rookies watch video of Chris Vandevelde and Brandon Manning being dependable before they ever step foot on the ice. Day 2 is how to stop a slapshot with your face.

Yeah, Coots ran off back to back 96 pt seasons. Ten less games in his draft year due to mono. Been a huge fan of his from day one.
Every time He has been with good players he has produce in the point per game range. How does a guy that is slow get to the net for so many tip in attempts? He had two with TK yesterday. Maybe he isn't that slow.

Though ive always been happy with the pick, he's certainly regained his status of being one of the best players to come out of that draft.

Only kucherov and Scheifle have been better.

I mean some actually watch the games, but you're probably right for the majority . Personally, I find junior hockey quite entertaining and prefer it over most NHL games.
- JFlyers00


I'm kidding.

But seriously, I can't find time to actually watch more than 1 NHL game per day, at most. So the fact that people on here can watch multiple CHL and NCAA games every single day, and then can remember every single player they've watched, and then rank them accordingly is truly a remarkable feat.

certainly debatable...but there are a few guys rounding into great NHL players

Gibson, Rakell, Saad, and obviously Johnny Hockey

But we can NOT discount the fact that you can tie a bow tie.

Sanheim has made some mistakes, especially those that end up in the back of the net, but I don't see how he is the worst defender on the team. That is poppycock. He knows how to play defense well, and he will get there. Results vs process time and time again.

Followup: Schenn was a bust he couldn't even get a point against the worst team in the league on Saturday

Who in your opinion does he defend better than on this current roster at the moment?

Until he fits one of the following hashtags, he should remain scratched:

#safe
#reliable
#consistent

We here in Flyers land don't appreciate skill, unpredictability, or fluidity if we can't count on you making the safe play (i.e. dump from the red line) on a consistent basis.

- dragonoffrost



Laughton has played well. just need to settle on the other 2 parts of that line. I dislike the 2nd like. Not a fan of Filppula and would really rather see Raffl on the 4th line if that meant the talent level overall on the team was better. as it stands i get why he is on the 2nd line.
