And the weekly Reagor roasting begins.

I was just going to female dog about him, but why bother?

Konecny had some defensive lapses and didn't score but he was creating a lot of offense last night. Especially in the 3rd period. If he plays more games with tht effort, the points and goals will come.

It's hard for me to grant any kind of patience with TK because to me, his problem stems mostly from not moving his feet, and if you think a coach or system is how you correct something as fundamental as "skate", then we don't see the game the same way.

It's hard for me to see the word "Effort" when describing his overall game last night, or really for the last year or so. He doesn't give full effort (no one besides Hart, that I can see really does), and that's why he doesn't score in 20 games. I just don't see in him a player that will succeed here. The fact is, he ISN'T succeeding now.

And then there’s Reagor.

I mean, is this guy dumb?

This is my central fear. Howie will have picks 15,16, and 20(?)? If they were top 7, its unlikely guy will be total bust. But here, those picks require judgment.

He could blow them all.

Yes, this year is Hayes is done, but you have to hope he can rebound because the Flyers are really stuck with him.

What is Hayes suppose to rebound to? Was there ever a true belief that a one-two punch of Sean Couturier and Kevin Hayes at center is what would land us a cup?

Reagor hasn’t shown anything..they have put him in positions to succeed. He’s just mentally not a good football player. Some guys rise to the occasion….he wilts.

As well, I’m not overly optimistic that Howie won’t (frank) up at least 2 of these picks.

i mean, yes. zero football sense.

i think you are right about the picks. however they probably wont be gunning for any glamor positions there. could see one being a linebacker finally haha

Yeah maybe premature, but Hurts just doesn't have "It"

I just hope Howie doesn't trade them all for Watson/Rogers/Wilson. This is going to be a slow process. They are several years away from contention.

I doubt their they're giving up on Sirianni Gannon you can argument for over the course of the season, but I can't blame the D today when you give Brady a short field to work with multiple times.

Sirianni called a really poor game today. And Hurts was putrid.

Yup. I agree I hope Howie doesn’t sell of the Picks either. They need a lot.

I agree that there are too many games where he is not engaged but he played his ass off last night. Unfortunately, we don't see that enough from him. A player with his talent going 20 games without scoring a goal is not about being snake bit. I think we have be very careful when looking at all players individually here. It's just too dysfunctional of a situation overall.

Oh no chance.

I was sort of looking for embers to warm this aging fan's heart with for the months ahead, and found none.

Sirianni: horrendous game
Hurts: horrendous game:
Reagor: cut him please.
Gannon: gets a pass...
Sweat: in hospital
Overall D: not a single young star
Kerrigan: nice you woke up after the season. Wish you were 22.
Offensive line: looked the worst I have seen in several weeks.

And now, garbage time TD
