PICK OF THE DAY.... not loving the lines today but I gotta give a pick. Up $2400 this week and gonna just bet $100. Maybe get to cool $2500. Not loving it but gonna take the over on Tampa/Dallas over 5 goals tonight. Hope for a 2-2 score and get at minimum a push if not a win. 4-2 this week with yet another lock of the week big winner for the naysayers who have gone quiet since I put serious picks up here. Typical flyers fans some are. Picks in writing yet only one other person with the sac to post a pick. Shocker

Up $2400 and only betting a $100... now we know this is fake.

So you didn't answer the question. What I did was answer someone else's question. No more no less.

Who do you think they should target to fill the 3rd line center spot (outside of Frost)? Now i don't expect any response but what can you do.

They were already posted. Patrick if healthy, Laughton, putting Giroux back at center, trying Frost. All before trading for Bozak.

Most fourth line players are a dime a dozen. No matter how good Betts was with in his role, he was never going to be Rod Brind’Amour. I’m not even gonna begin to make such a comparison but I do believe depth, most importantly the fourth line will make or break a team, regardless of the talent you may have in your top six.

I was speaking more to his PK abilities, not his scoring.

Maybe some of us don't like putting money up on something that we have zero control over...or just don't give a (frank) about sports betting.

Patrick lol. If that mushhead plays another game it will be a miracle.

Laughton they clearly want on wing or he would have been at center all year and not had to acquire grant and thompson. Pretty much same as giroux; he is a winger.

Anything else you want to add?

Once again you have nothing to offer. Nah they should resign grant, or move Laughton or giroux to center. That will really put them over the hump

so why didnt they keep Laughton at center all year? OR move Giroux back? Surely you have a rationale explanation for it no?

There is only so many spots available in the 12 forward lineup. If they don’t trade JVR, he is number 7, and if you assume at least one of Lindblom, Patrick or Frost plays, that is 8. What do you think of Raffl, Laughton and NAK. Two of those are on the 4th line. What element are you thinking of adding to those? Or are you not thinking that they are good in a 4th line role?

I never said to re-sign Grant. But signing Bozak would definitely "put them over the hump."

They can't be the backbone of the team like Paul Ranheim and Kent Mandervilel were. Manderville's 2 season scoring drought was a huge part of their success in the 90s.

Still wondering how they are acquiring Bozak. Obviously a trade, but what are we trading for him, with some resemblance of realsim? And do you think the Flyers would be on his list of 10 teams he would not accept a trade to?

Does He fill a major hole by occupying the 3rd line center spot? yes or no? Does he improve the team and balance the lineup? yes or no?

Yes you said move 2 guys to center who the organization clearly has shown they don't want at center; you are a fn genius.

I love that I'm offering nothing, but him saying go get X is offering something.

(frank) it, McDavid must be an option then too.

Yes, he does.

Now how do the Flyers acquire him and remain cap compliant?

Not as poor as your they need a veteran; which is beyond laughable. Point is he will seek a raise and multi year deal before he accepts 1 year same salary deal.

He will not say he Mr fletcher give me 1 million and Iwill stay.

So wanting a known player that is capable is laughable. Who said it would only be for one year. Do you know for a fact that he wouldn’t stay for one year at one mil. No you don’t.

Vets are always needed on any teams. Especially one like ours with so many young guys. Why do you think we traded for two last season? All about attrition.

Don't be silly. McDavid would be our 2C. DUH! We're talking 3C.
