Not sure I'm comfortable with Braun getting more than 20 mins.

Any young really solid RHD's on the market? Use Farabee as bait, move Frost into Farabee's spot, problem solved.

Flyers taking a lot of penalties could elevate his ice time but I agree with you.
- MJL


I can see Provorov taking the ensuing shifts with another partner after Braun kills a penalty, so maybe it will even out.

Haag and Gus should be able to provide good minutes as well. 15-18 a night as opposed to 12-15.

I think the Sanheim/Myers pair is gonna be huge for this team. We all know Provorov is gonna make whomever he plays with better. It’s only a matter of time until we find a full time partner for Ivan.

It’ll be in one or two years when York is ready tk take the second left d pair. Provie Myers sanhiem York. Top 4.

Evander Kane who already has earned almost $53 mil in his career files for bankruptcy today.

Shame three good prospects are out with injury.

Also wonder how close sandin was to taxi squad.

Team still lacks an element of toughness. Really wish they’d pick up the likes of a Michael Haley or Austin Watson, or some other deterrent who’s on waivers.

And this was the voice for BLM on the hockey side of things. Him doing int views in his stupid pink polo in his back yard with lists of demands and voicing how his employers weren’t doing enough for the cause. Ridiculous.

Id be shocked if York isn't in the top 6 next year. He may be our version of a trade deadline acquisition when he comes up after Michigan season.

I think Aube-Kubel offers some element of toughness but we are missing that wide spread of toughness since Simmonds, Schenn and Gudss could take care of themselves.

Yea he was the wrong guy, huge POS. I don’t feel sorry for a guy like that. Winnipeg and Buffalo couldn’t get rid of him fast enough.

Is Roddy Ross signed now?
- NC Flyers Fan


I haven’t seen it reported anywhere and I’m not sure how that happens since they already have 50 contracts per Cap Friendly.

Bill, I thought - going in - that Linus Sandin would either make the team as a 4th liner or at least the taxi group. What was it? Bad camp, no talent, couldn’t adjust to NHL rinks???

I’m all for fighting for equality among all human rights but in this case you have a well respected player like Wayne Simmonds in the same group, fight for the same cause and this group decides to put the “C” on Evander Kane?

Lol. Agree. NAK let’s his game do the talking. In between whistles I don’t see him chirping much. But he will throw if needed.

You are correct though. Simmer and gudas were always challenging others. If you listen to the miked up things. When gudas was here you would always hear him in the background. You wanna go. Wanna go. Wanna go. Sam still on the taxi squad. Not sure if he earned it or the want him to practice as much as possible.

While I think his chances are slim. I can easily see him dressing a playoff game. For well statements.

I get why he’s not starting. But yeah I was surprised to see andreoff and Morin. I get aa is a vet and Sam is huge but I don’t know.

Stop. Flyers have York and Zemula in the pipeline. Why would they want to do that?

One year overdue for Provorov. Congratulations to him.

This isn’t Hayes hate, I just thought it was odd Hayes instantly got an “A”, alternating with Voracek his first year with the Flyers and probably never wore a letter anywhere else in seasons passed, anywhere he went. I’m fine with it now but I never understood that choice last season over Provorov who is mister everything on our defense or Matt Niskanen who does all the right things on the ice and says all the right things off.

I could swear I recall him wanting a letter as part of his Contract details. Maybe I'm wrong but I could swear someone mentioned that was part of his negotiations

Were you the guy who said Sandin was guaranteed a spot? If so what on earth gave you that idea? Same here. Going in? No such thing for any young player.
