jesus...i just said i liked him lol

Yeah, I mean...I don't disagree. I wouldn't want Turris as my top center, but then again I wouldn't want Stepan as mine either

I went on a spiel. Sorry!

Good thing we'll have Nico or Nolan as our top center

Liar. I have it right here.

The Flyer should trade the #2 overall pick this year to get Kyle Turris. He's a top center and probably guarantees us the next 6 Stanley Cups.

Derek Stepan would be my second choice if The #2 isn't enough for Turris.

Our should-have-been-sniper-sk8ter-boi Bellows is leaving BU after his poop year to join Portland in the WHL. Him and Glass should be dynamite together. Still, it feels like he's outgrown that competition level, and the challenge of college hockey was what he needed. His usage wasn't great, but he showed needed areas of improvement if he's going to be the player he can be. Now he's just bolting instead of facing the challenge. He's likely not going to improve what needs improving in junior hockey. Probably jilted that his boy Clay-Clay left him too.

Do you think it is possible that he is what the team would deem "ready" after one season in the AHL?

You weren't here when he posted a selfie in a tie die shirt, long hair, glasses, and a tinfoil hat. That's what GiG will always be to me.

I wouldn't protect AMac -- not because of hatred, just because I wouldn't protect a player who is likely not on Vegas' radar to be selected and even if he was, it doesn't cripple you

I would protect Stolarz, for exactly the reasons Feanor described. I don't know what he's gonna be, but the Flyers, to me, should keep him and find out

I have gone back and forth, but if it's me, I make an effort to protect Laughton and risk losing Raffl

place your bets....do you think the Flyers make a trade in the next 3 weeks?
- YuenglingJagr


Huh. Good question.

They don't really need to...I'd love if a legit scoring LW came walking through that door, but to answer the question, I don't think they will

So you're just trying to talk pucks, but your opinion on how he is progressing is irrelevant? seems almost like there are other intentions...

I'm shocked there's discussion about protecting amac. Protecting him would be a severely shortsighted view if we're talking about what he could bring to the team next year. If hexy was given the choice, I'd bet he'd terminate amac's deal today

So the story behind it is one of our professors would always snarkily say "time to put your pharmD hats on" when we got a question wrong so I (frank)ing made one for her final and she kept it and it's still in her office

Bill made some reasonable points on why the Flyers might protect MacDonald.

Congrats, GiG. It's something to be proud of. Keep your fingers crossed I'll be experiencing the same feeling for finishing a PA program in the next 4 years
