He should be getting around 60 games this year. I want him going at all times outside of back to backs

I'm ok with that. All I was trying to say is that it's game 2 and they can't already be doing the goalie shuffle.

There are going to be some, and one can already see it coming, that turn on Carter Hart this season.

Instead of turning the attention to Fletcher.

A few months ago I mentioned to Bill that the Flyers should be pursuing FA Filip Lindberg with an ELC. IMO he is better than any of the Flyers goalie prospects. Of course there is always an issue with the 50 contract limit. For at least one game last night, Lindberg proved me right. It’s unfortunate that he wound up in he Pens organization. This goes to the bigger problem why the Flyers continually use up contracts by resigning players like Rubtsov, Morin an others that have no shot of ever making an impact on the parent club.

Good article about the leafs cap situation. The 40 million 4 haha. I still say they’ve competed mismanaged it. They can’t afford to call up a backup goalie.

I apologize in advance for the timing of this, but it seems fentanyl and cocaine were a factor in Jimmy Hayes' death.

Doesn’t seem; his dad confirmed it. Just terrible. Fentanyl has become its own little pandemic.

Just saw that. Tragic. Sounds like he had been in rehab, just prior to his death, and everyone thought he was doing well.

No surprise at all. Healthy young men ,athletes, typically dont die from something else in their sleep. Hate to say it but there were strong ""rumors ""about Kevin in his days with Rangers .

Just rumors like any rumor could be true could be nothing to it. Hopefully nothing there . Did not know about his dad. Very sad situation with young kids involved.

In recent years it seems cocaine is a popular drug in the NHL in general. Wouldn’t doubt it’s consistently been used for many years prior.

That Claude goal was awesome. Loved his celebration after too! It will forever bother me how criminally under appreciated G has been his whole career here.
- arichardson22

That was a great goal. G set the whole thing up. He was in the circle and signaled to Coots with his stick for the bank pass and slid don't to his spit. Great freakin shot too.
Coots with 2 apples on the night. Good job.

Grew up and worked in North Jersey. MSG about an hour away. Then moved to PA and worked in Pennsauken. Had to drive my one boss to rehab. His partner died of a cocaine induced heart attack. Coke was all over the place. Bad poop. Fentanyl is worse. Sad times indeed.
