I think most of us felt that Morin was the guy coming out of camp who most earned a spot by his play. More so than Hagg or Sanheim IMO.

That being said, we are all in agreement that Sanheim shouldn't be sitting. Maybe we can disagree on where he should be. I personally think he should be in Allentown.

He should be playing over Manning

Leier looks to be in over Goulbourne tonight

Let's play who was the first rag you hated.
Mine was Brad Park and then Dugay

As funny as it sounds now...it was actually Jagr. We were both different people then

Brad Park and Steve Vickers were the first 2, but no one comes close to Tomas (frank)ing Sandstrom on my most hated chart.

Donald Brashear for me.

Can you copy and paste it here?

I have a hard time thinking about paying for sports journalism. It's not that I don't want to.

I love hockey, but I don't have enough time to watch as much as a want, let alone have enough time to read about it to make it worth the subscription.

sorry buddy....check reddit though, they normally post stuff...until I hear about hockey writers getting paid too much I will do what I can to support them

All things considered I would rather he be in over Manning. But IMO Manning has played better than Sanheim. So there is that.

Mistake one in my eyes. Meaningless wins put above development of kids. More things change and all. Hell and of course Sanheim will play scared the way he’s been handled.

Good day and good hockey boys. Don’t care enough lately.

They are still well within playoff spots so I disagree with your premise.

He needs to be back in Lehigh. Honestly he has not outplayed any of the current defense who are playing right now. That part I at least understand, this team still wants to win and Hak will ice what he thinks is the best lineup at his disposal.

What I don't understand is having the kid being a long term healthy scratch at any level. Makes no sense. Send him down now.

- MBFlyerfan


Agree with your point of view. He had a solid opportunity to replace some of the elements Ghost brings to the table last game and he ended up hurting his cause.

Whether it's the coach's lack of confidence or his lack of consistency..he seems bette4 off in the AHL playing a major role.

"Meaningless wins" whatever that means..are more important than coddling the kids. NHL is not a development league. Young players need to earn thier role and ice time. Sanheim hasn't done that.

Manning has definitely been playing better than Sanheim, and the team is winning. No way you take Manning out of the lineup now.
I too, want Sanheim to play. Just not sure who would sit at this point to get him in.

I think Sanheim could be given a partner other than Gudas. Manning has played well by his own standards, but I have a serious issue when he is being given PP time. They are without a doubt held to different standards.

And that is why I think we all would rather see him getting 20+ a night in Allentown.

I know he was there only a short time but I hated Esa Tikkanen with a passion.

And here is why:

Stop being the Flyers and play Sanheim please. Sigh.
- flyer_nutter


Sanheim should be sent down if he's not going to play for the Flyers. Have no idea what stop being the Flyers means.

It has something to do with trying to get meaningless wins.

They're not meaningless wins and it's ridiculous to label them as such.

On merit i dont thinks so. Manning has played with more consistency and composure plus produced twice as much offense compared to Sanheim..

I have no doubt Sanheim will eventually be a far better player but I don't see the case for him in the line up over Manning based on the first half of this season .
