He read the CBA. But guessing he had two screens.

This team lead by the holy trinity doesn’t have a hate to lose attitude imo. They are very complacent. This is another reason change is needed as maybe this rubs off on young guys. Please don’t misconstrue this as they are bad locker room guys or what not. They lack that killer attitude and leadership that is needed

If not comparing them even indirectly, the reason for selecting those players to point out similarity of ppg would then be pointless. I guess you won't know anything about that.


- PT21

No it's not pointless. I noticed you used the vagueness of overall value. If a player has a similar ppg total over a period of time than they are comparable as point producers. In terms of value, well that can be looked at in a number of ways using a number of different criteria.

And actually, I said I would return to post every now and then here (middle of page)

and here ("see you in future")

https://www.hockeybuzz.co...?thread_id=167962&page=12

You actually responded to the second one. Hardly surprising you don't know what the future means as a word.

It is tempting to come by for your sake - (with my arse gone, where oh where will the resident retard's cold nostrils nestle?) - but you are right in spirit. I should peek less to post less in case I am suckered in.

Adios, duncehead.

So you posted the very next day after claiming you were leaving hockeybuzz, including the diatribe of what your reasoning is. Yet here you are posting multiple times the very next day. Oh the irony and arrogance, not to mention the lack of complete class in insinuating someone is a retard.

What you've done is the equivalent of telling the wife you're leaving her and moving out, only to be found spread out in the recliner in front of the big screen in the man cave.

Here was my response to your bogus attention seeking claim that you were leaving hockeybuzz

"See you tomorrow!"

Injuries happen. EspeciLly when your the target for years as he was. Injuries unrelated to the head. And has a family history. Yeah crazy I know but I believe he will be back
- Peter Richards

I think he’ll be back too. I wouldn’t be surprised if not but don’t think it’s that extreme. But he never projected to be top line center. Which is what we need. A star player. Coots is good. Even very good but he’s no spring chicken either.

You said you get migraines. Then question. If you were getting them frequently and they were intense how would you like to continually fly and play in front of 19000 people acreaming on a bright well lit rink. Just curious.

Where’s Bruce?

Seattle gonna pluck Laughton in expansion draft

This core just not that good period.

As unit I agree. Individually still good players

Let Justin Braun, Brian Elliott, Derek Grant, Nate Thompson, Chris Stewart, Alex Lyon, Kurtis Gabriel all walk

tampa and the isles both made excellent trade deadline moves. The flyers didnt (which is fine for now) Tampa also made nice low cost moves in Shattenkirk and Bogosian.

Comparing Tampa's loss last year to the flyers is misguided imo. Tampa clearly had the more talented team and huge moves were not justified to me.

Tampa's loss was more tragic by far, and attracted widespread calls for change.

Instead of listening to all the idiots and changing the way they play, getting bigger and grittier, #StripStamkos and firing the coach, they just stuck with their vision and came back stronger.

Yes when you get them you are down for the day. Key word day. Again the only way you get migraines to the extent to put you out of action for a whole year is with trauma. Nobody has migraines on a daily basis or mostly everyday. In case of trauma you’d get them from activity. Such as exercise diet drinking etc. a professional athlete would not ever have just regular problems like the average joe. Just like Crosby and pronger Lindros Primeau Suffered coNcussions and continued to play and they got worse and forced a long period of recoup time. More than likely what happened to Patrick. Just strange team or player just doesn’t come out and say that

Same. Except elliot id consider back. And pitlick who I assume you want to keep since you didn't mention. Rest can go.

It was a huge upset absolutely.

The diff is they have and had a much more talented team; not eve close really. I do not recall people demanding all kinds of change; not saying they didnt just dont recall. They didnt have to make great changes.

What they did at the deadline addressed what they felt was needed.

yea pitlick can sit on the 3rd/4th line

If Frost doesnt pan out how far does it set the flyers back?

https://youtu.be/2UEdo674XIQ

Not sure how you can call this guy an empty stat machine. We lack this talent on our team.

We need a first line that can score.

Ideally I’d like to see Hayes centering two skilled wingers, maybe Johnny hockey and Hoffman.

Then Giroux can center the second line with less pressure on him to produce. Voracek and Lindblom as wingers maybe.

I'd like Gaudreau to change his last name to Utah.

Gimme 2, Johnny!

What did Elliot do? I could see them retaining Braun. Possible Thompson or grant for 4 th line or depth but depends on inside knowledge we don’t have.

It doesn’t. There are only two maybe three players on each team that the loss of would set the team back. Provie hart maybe coots or Hayes. They go down with career injuries like pronger then we are in trouble. His loss hurt the team immensely.

But a prospect with a few games. We have more and there are always trade and free agency to replace parts. Some parts are almost impossible to replace. He is not one of them. Yet.

It doesn’t
- Peter Richards

Why do you think that? He is being counted on as a top 3 center. What options are after him?

Lol no he isn’t.

Lol yes he most certainly is; So if he isn’t what are they counting on him for? 4th line center ?
