Corsi exgf among other things. Controlled exits controlled entrances. Etc etc. Basically every stat and fancy stat. Plus the eye test which he includes his own opinion. He brings a ton of optimism but also the what if we don't improve question.

Also guys the website has frost updated as saying hes om the IR. Myers has no designation- yet.

He couldn't have used that many fancy stats. Myers and Sanheim aren't anywhere near the positive in most categories.

Download it and read 🤷‍♂️ i personally think its one the best apps for well written and well thought out articles. About hockey in general but Charlie has generally good takes and solid background info in his writing covering the flyers.

I use the app for the athletic. The stats your portraying through that site may not be "positive" but are leading the team. What he said about gus is also accurate and provy fancy stats showing him getting largely caved in. I dont see anything here that disproves Charlie analysis. Maybe just lowers the "positive" wording.

What kind of person is happy about injuries?

These guys play for our entertainment. I never want to see them get hurt, even if it’s a rival. Well, let me clarify. Hurt is okay. Injured is another. I don’t want to see injuries. Takes away from the game, and it’s just an ugly thing to root for.

I’d rather beat a team at their best, as would most decent human beings. Plus, it saves you from their excuses.

Honka would be another Ghost, Gus, all offense and scary on D, but RHD. I’m not sure that is what they need although he would be no risk at 1year, 700k, two way contract.
- Djapana


What offense? The guy doesn't score.

He could use a change of scenery, and maybe he turns into something, but Mark Friedman is better than him right now.

I did not realize this caps thing was 4 guys “the Russians” hanging out in a hotel room. These protocols are insanely strict but I guess needed to complete this season.

I agree with this assessment. The only game I thought we looked somewhat decent was Game 2. I know half of the board thought last night was tight and close and whatever. No. Not at all. Moose stole us a game. Period.

I agree. I hate the Pens, but when Sid missed that season with concussions that was horrible for the the league. As much as I dislike a player I never rooted for an injury, and yes it’s always a better game when the best players are playing.

OK, let’s not get self-righteous in here. If we’re one win away from winning a Stanley Cup and a stud like Crosby stands in our way and happens to get hurt/injured, we’re all thinking the same thing. “Now is our chance!” Sorry about his luck but we all want the championship.

Yes, Moose was why it was close. However, overall the skaters were vastly more competitive than Monday. Not that system and execution was quite there. Definitely a step in the right direction.

My biggest issue with Monday was the lack of compete.

That is simply opportunistic. It’s not like you actually wish for it. It is really just finding the good from something bad.

Sure but....Was it 2000 when Lindros returned with a Collapsed lung and a number of concussions. I don’t think Devils fans had any problem with Scott Stevens taking off his head.
