Laughton following #PHIvsVAN: “Tonight, I think we worked really hard. Guys were trying...I really, really do believe that. It’s tough.”

If we are to take Scott for his word, then its pretty obvious the players jut arent good enough.

- Hatchet

Yep so who's the first ones traded

I start with Jake, Simmer and Ghost. And maybe I can dump some of the dead weight with them.

Simmonds first and foremost. I'm ready to move on from Jake as well. That may have to be an off-season move however.

I'm not giving up on Ghost yet though unless the return is too good to pass up. I think they need to find him a more complementary D partner and get the forward situation straightened out. Put less defensive responsibility on him so he focus on what he excells at. Moving the puck and taking offensive chances.

Ghost has trade value that may allow you to move a Weise, Weal, you know the usual suspects that everyone wants gone and can fetch a good return. Maybe even that D to pair with Provy for a true top pair.

I can't move him just to get rid of a contract. Flyers don't even have cap issues so I'm not worried about those deals really.

I’m late to this because I didnt watch this one, went out tonight.

If it’s true that Stolarz had back spasms earlier in the day and Hak still decided to go with him... BSH saying that Stolarz is now injured?

What the (frank).

It's not a cap thing with moving those guys. It's roster spots and better skill.

There is an issue with Lehigh having injuries we can't call up players and demote vets.

Looked to be knee injury for Stolie in game. But might've been back and announced as LBI instead so as to take heat off Hak for playing a possible hurt player

But did not do it last night down by 2 with a powerplay with 3 minutes left?
- Daceroni


He said during an interview he wanted to do it but never had the chance. He wanted to do it after a whistle which makes sense given the Flyers issues keeping possession
