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

I don’t see him bumping Coots, Hayes, or Patrick. Assuming Patrick is back.

Cassidy wins the Jack Adams. Vigneault should challenge.

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
- SMS4016



The very fact that after a full year they haven't come out and stated it's concussion related leads one to believe it isn't. What would they have to gain from hiding it? I think if we had the availability of an expert on migraines, we'd find out that you don't have a clue of what you're talking about.

I think they’ll take Ghost if Fletch isn’t smart enough to move him first.
- hereticpride



I dont think they will touch Ghost unless he has a good season. Ghost has had a bunch of poor seasons. If I was a GM I wouldnt have interest unless he showed some promise. If a guy like Voracek is available I take him 100%. He is a proven player who plays on the top line. You are not going to see a better player available. Laughton would be another target if signed at the time of the expansion draft and unprotected. JVR definitely wouldnt be my first choice but I would consider taking him as well.

TB doesn't have a 12th forward they can dress? WTF.... they are dressing Luke Schenn's corpse as a 7th dman. That is sad.

Equally as sad Matt Martin with 5 playoff goals... Konecny had zero.

Edit: And now down to 10 forwards. What a dumb franchise.

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.
- Peter Richards

0 reason to retain braun unless they're trading a young guy

Martin had two goals in the series vs. the Flyers. Giroux and Konecny combined for one. Is that good?

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.

It was a huge offseason story.

Fact is, they needed that Blue Jackets wake up call to take the next step.

Flyers have a lot of talent. You're selling them short.

No it isnt a good thing but at the same time COVID Cup Playoffs have been anything but normal.


Matt Martin has the same amount of goals as:

Kucherov
Benn
Hedman(Not anymore as he just scored)
McDavid
Pacioretty
Toews

Matt Martin also has more goals than:

Matthews
Makar
R.Smith
RoR
Eberle
Boeser
Dubois
W.Karlsson
Svechnikov
Gaudreau
Drasaitl
Stasny
Pastranak
Aho
Schenn
Seguin
Bergeron
P.Kane

List goes on.

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.

And this is close to where the Flyers are in my opinion. This team is close right now. Lots of good youth still coming also.

- wcorvette


Yeah. Vegas fleeced a bunch of teams. Many should have just excepted losing a good player instead of losing a different good player and losing some good picks.

Flyers will be best served just to lose that player and move forward.

Haha.

That sucks. Cassidy is a good coach. I thought AV had a great year for sure. Was deserving also.
