When Ryan White and Matt Read are on the ice in need of the game tying goalie then you know your team is massively void of talent. (frank)ing garbage.

I actually think Vinny has played well considering what the rest of the team has looked like. I am not even joking.

5th assist of the season for Jake
- SuperSchennBros


He's been absolutely terrible. This contract could be another the Flyers may well regret.

How on earth did this team manage to get 10 points this year? They're worse than the Leafs.

He really hasn't though. It's a combination of failure to finish, bad luck, trying to do too much, and lack of confidence. He's still one of the few players playing something that could, through squinty eyes, be called hockey. I'm not worried about his contract and I'm not in the slightest bit worried about his effort and skill level. I AM worried about what's doing upstairs for him right now though.

I'm not going to go that far. But Raffle is not a first line player. Brayden Schenn, Matt Read, RJ Umberger, Vinny Lecavalier, Chris Vandevelde, Luke Schenn, Brandon Manning these guys are trash. Legit 3 quarters of the team is trash and the rest are expected to be more than they actually are. This has 2006-07 written all over it. And why not? You've got 4 ace defensive prospects, with a 5th d prospect that looks decent. You've got two good goalies and a couple of young good players on offense with Konecy waiting. What's one more year of blowing matter?

This lineup needs to be shaken up. Call up some young kids, make a trade -- maybe not quite yet but those thoughts have to be running through Hexy's mind. They're not just losing; they're getting shellacked. Outskilled, outworked, outhoused.

Vinny played 12 mins but he didn't stand out either way to me. Invisible really. G and jake must just be going nuts right now. Couldn't have predicted a start like this for them. Jake is on pace for a 35 point season for gods sake.

Look at the bright side: it'll be more points than the team gets

That Vinny line: all 20 and under CF%. Totaled 1 shot for and 10 against. Mmmmm yummy.

He looked g-rrrreat though (says his one singular fan, true believer, and possible lover)

Just reading this makes me upset with Hakstol considering what happenedin Buffalo a week ago. Brayden Schenn got us that tying goal. Brayden Schenn has 4 goals tied with Giroux for the most of the team. No excuse to have White out there.

Oh is this a shot at me because I was unaware you were this bitter...

Three players on one line smart guy. Now how is the rest of the team doing game in and game out?

You're the one praising and propping up Vinny every chance you get, smart guy, facts and game footage be damned. Coincidence that Gagner's game goes to poop when
the anchor that is Vinny hops on his line? Brayden Schenn has been meh lately, but he's also done significantly worse since this power trio was assembled. Think I see a possible cause there...

And no they're not blameless. To you, Vinny is. Keep making excuses or sugar coating or wearing rose colored glasses or do them all at the same time, I don't care. But he's been awful.

I didn't say that previous post bitterly btw. It was typed with a bemused laugh because that's the only way I can read what you write about Vinny anymore.

Seriously? You think I'm trying to be "tough"? Really? I'm cracking jokes -- I'm not trying to be Steven Seagal here. You, however, I think are.

Vinny is still awful, and we all think it. May this thought rankle you for eternity.


P.S.: I mean...I wrote in my last post "Unfortunately I don't have hands." I mean...seriously? That's "toughest tough talker" material. Oy vey.

Your trying to crack jokes at my expense unprovoked.

Let me apologize to you personally for not bathing in selfloathing and blaming the worst player on an already bad team.
