I like this one a little better. The escalator represents the team (going up) while the guy is Hakstol.

Hakstol is gonna take these boys to the top!

That may be true but with a first ballot hall of fame goaltender if you get in you have a chance. That’s why the flyers won’t win a cup until they get an elite goaltender and maybe not even then. If I were a flyer fan I’d hope carter hart is the real deal.whats really hilarious though is some of you on here said hank wouldn’t be a third stringer with the flyers now THATS hilarious

Brodeur will be the only 1st ballot hall of fame goalie. Hank is missing the CUPS! (plural!)

Thank you for the compliment?

would love to hear your reasoning as to why Giroux is a fraud.

It entertains me to hear the reasons people have for wanting to strip the C from Giroux. Some of them are quite comical

Healthy scratch. Had issues with speed and gap control in his first game back from injury.

So the obvious solution was to put Manning in his place, because logic.

Hak on Hägg sitting: "It’s not always just about the individual. The pair, between him and Gudy, it wasn’t a ton of easy chemistry there. We ended up in some situations with and against speed where we ended up with some bad gaps. The pair wasn’t as effective as we need it to be."

Why sweet jesus why.

So you've spent time with him?
- Scoob


Mostly hidden in the bushes outside of his place, but some quality time overall yes.

Would actually rather:

A. Just give the pair another game to get comfortable, the Rags are a good team to work out the kinks against

Or

B. If you have to sit someone, sit Gudas. He was awful against the Wings.

Gudas has not had a great season but I would keep him in.
- MJL

Gudas is a guy I would consider moving to make room for Morin next season and opening up a little more cap space to bring back Simmonds. Filppula, Read. Those are already pretty big hits coming off the books.

No thanks, I don’t want Gudas anywhere near the top pair. I’m just hoping that next season we see:

Provy-Ghost
Sanheim-AMac or Hagg
Morin-AMac or Hagg

Gudas is a RH Dman under 30. They have trade value. Move him.

without question Gudas and Manning have been the MOST CHALLENGED D pair. So Hak doensn't liKE the chemistry, sit the consistently bad player. Now, we know due to the need of vet presence they can't but to put Manning back in is terrible. I don't like the message it says to the team or Hagg. Is hak trying to get into Hagg's head.

DOUBLE STANDARDS.
