First time I am saying first because I am, ha, ha. Great post Bill and thank you for keeping us informed on our flyers. One thing interesting is that S. Bobrovsky has been lights out for SKA in KHL. He is #1 man now and is 9w 1loss as of last weekend. He is still developing and I sure wish we had him instead the Breezer.

It is obvious Schenn and Couturier are going to be Flyers when the season starts whether is be next month or next year. Do you think Couturier has a chance to go first line with Giroux and Hartnell? I would love to see both of them crack the top six. They will both be top six but maybe not quite that soon. I have seen a couple Adirondack games on AHL live and both of them look great.

I think Couturier will center the third line. I'll be interested to see if Schenn plays LW on Briere's line or if he ends up centering.

Very little chance of Couturier being on the first line with Giroux and Hartnell. Why would you put him there? He's the team's best defensive Center. He will play Center on a checking line.

You have to wonder if the Portland Winterhawks will make some trades to land some picks back to keep a somewhat competitive team going forward.

Will the Flyers sign Colin Suellentrop to a ELC once a CBA is completed?

Bill, Is there any way Sean Couturier plays for Canada at the world juniors? Bob Mckenzie doesn't even mention his name when speculating on how the team will look, Is he too old?

I think he is too old, I think those born in 93 is as fast back as they can go. Couturier was born in 92.

They may, although I get the sense they think he's more of a future AHL player than a legit NHL top-six prospect. But the organization isn't exactly overflowing with promising young defensemen, and Suellentrop has improved each season in junior hockey.

Time will tell I guess. Todd Cordell mentioned via twitter he thinks the Flyers may give Oshawa overage D-man Matt Petgrave a look after the year.

Have you heard anything or agree?

Haven't heard anything other than what Todd wrote. But obviously the Flyers' scouts have seen him play several times while doing follow-up work on Laughton and Suellentrop.

They must be going insane that they can't run On the Fly 12 hours a day. That channel is an abortion.

I like it, the nonstop airing of the Kings vs. Blues series was a big help in testing my new surround sound system

Playing games is not logical, skin tags are a serious issue.
