No, no. Hakstol shows no emotion behind the bench. He doesn't care. That is why the Flyers are bad

No kidding?? And all this time I thought it was because they didn't have enough really good hockey players.

If professional hockey players cant motivate themselves then there is a much bigger problem than the coach.

I struggle with trying to decide whether the contract for PEB was because they love him or because it was protection from expansion in a way. I don't know, but I really don't think they will protect him. Weal I wouldn't say I am worried about him getting picked, but I think they have enough options to prevent Vegas from taking him if they choose. Leaving him unsigned is probably the most prohibitive to having him get picked, but signing him to a short deal that may be high AAV could do it too.

The Flyers obviously love Bellemare, but it's important not to forget that Hexy re-signed Raffl to a bigger deal, so he clearly likes Raffl too.

I really don't know what to make of the Bellemare deal. Hexy seems to have some fascination with depth players. His nightmares are probably having his team lack depth and be forced to use a young player during a call-up.

Filppula took a few weeks to get comfortable here, but the having three real centers in the top 9 makes a big difference.

Hopefully Konecny stays with G and Jake.

Seems like Lyubimov's time with the Flyers is drawing to a close. It's a shame he hasn't got more usage so we could be more sure he wasn't worth hanging on to.

Yep according to those geniuses, if you aren't tossing a bench over the boards and insulting Lindy Ruff, you ain't doing it right.

Don't forget not winning the Cup, at least 2 out of every 3 years.

Agreed. Would it have really crippled the team to dress him Vandevelde's spot and use him in that same role for the last couple of weeks?

I didn't necessarily think he looked good with G and jake. But G and Jake were horrible all night on their own accord. Especially G...who doesn't even shoot the one timer anymore on the PP. But I want to see more of them together, unless coach feels the structure the 4th line provides TK is paramount

I think he will be re-signed.
- bmeltzer


I think so to, but after the ED so they don't have to worry about Vegas taking a signed Weal as their pick.

Vandevelde is the cause of all things that are wrong with the Flyers team. Last night I learned that he is the reason why the Flyers are going to lose Jordan Weal.

As you can see in the above photo, Plind and 2Real both work for Vandeveldemort. The ultimate goal is to get 2 picks better in the upcoming draft and pick the chosen one.

All I said in my earlier post was: would it have really crippled the team to have Lyubimov take VdV's spot and role in the lineup over the last couple of weeks to see if he was a player that could be worth re-signing.

Seemed like a reasonable question to me. Sorry if you disagree.

Actually, I should be honest as one should always strive for honesty in our troubled world. I don't give a flying (frank) if you disagree.
