Isn't Clarke's son one of the head scouts too?

I believe his wife is an executive assistant as well, has been for a long time.

I was surprised but yeah, he's an after thought.

Mackenzie actually took time to address both WJC teams in his last two Bobcasts. Episode 4 was the Canadians. When he started talking about Centers I kept waiting and waiting and at the very end he threw Frosts name out as a potential invitee to the cut down camp. Potential invitee to the cut down camp.

One thing I'll be curious about is will there be any moves with guys from Lehigh to the Flyers?

Will Hakstol ask to have someone like Aube-Kubel or Myers up and waive someone like Folin or Lehtara.

Yeah so he can play them 5 minutes per game perfect. (frank) hakstol

He needs to go. He really needs to go. I know it’s a matter of time and they have no one else capable of coaching right now but it’s over

I think Homer should get the top 3 or 4 candidates in a room and tell them the first person to find a team that will offer anything of value for Nuevy and/or Lehtera gets the job.

I'm talking anything. $5 Tim Horton's gift card, one year Costco membership, spare change from guy's car...

I do like I hope most knowledgeable Flyers fans would say no.

Seriously. Why in the world would we trade Provy for a forward with our current defense?

Neuvirth was back on the ice apparently. He stated that he feels bad about what's happened and wished he had gotten healthy sooner! I'm wondering when he was actually healthy?

The last time he was healthy Hextall was probably still playing.

20 bad games vs 2 rock solid seasons as a young player = trade

For whatever it’s worth of course.

Anthony SanFilipino. The only guy that mentioned Hextall’s job may be in trouble days before it happened.

“Im hearing that part of the problem with Gord Murphy was that some of the young defensemen - especially Ivan Provorov - weren’t on the same page with him. I expect to see a different Provy and Ghost moving forward now that he’s gone.”

I can't help looking at the standings and thinking that we're bound to make a trade with one of the Kings, Blues or Hawks once the new GM gets here.

Thomas, Rassmussen, Vilardi from NHL loans

Then Suzuki, Glass and Hayden were locks if the loans don't come through.

In the mix Vilano, Sudnika, Frost, Bowers in that order.

Forgive my spelling, I didn't take the time to look them up.

I'm skeptical that just removing an assistant coach is going to instantly make both player better.

Isn't Vilardi injured? I don't see Rassmussen leaving Detroit if he continues to play well. Thomas meh. Hayton over Frost...I guess if you want US to win.

Not what I would do or would I? GO USA!

For sure. A lot coming out anti Hextall.

That has to be taken into account. Two sides to every story.

That Blues roster should really be way better than they are. They confuse me.
