It's Allison's fault for not having any connection to the Wild. Don't blame the GM for Wade's mistakes.

Stay healthy...Guys been healthy for a week. Maybe string a few together and then come up. Wasn’t he supposed to help the team? Him and Ellis have had great years.

Couldn't the Flyers bring up Allison in place of Mayhew to at least more resemble an NHL lineup? We still have Bunnaman and Wllman in there to give it that AHL flair, but watching Mayhew on the 3rd line is just too much for me to handle.

you should not question moves that chuckles makes, since you think the moves he mad in the off season were great

So what have I missed?

Can anyone give me 3 good reasons why Sandin hasn’t had a debut opportunity especially during this latest winless streak?
Is Allison up to speed yet? I can’t imagine any other reason to wait for him since he did get games with the Flyers last year and looked pretty good.

Big 4 point game tonite for draft position. These are the games you don't want to win.

Jake homecoming, he’ll have two assists. Not sure how many goals the Flyers can muster

actually would not mind Mayhew on the 4th line, he adds some speed and skill but Allison should be called up.

wonder if they can teach him to skate


Nick Sirianni admits he's trying to lure Jason Kelce back: 'I sent him two kegs of beer'

1..neither guy has lit it up with Phantoms
2..why bring these 2 guys into the current losing environment it is just going to get worse and more chaotic
3. Allison's case he is just getting back from injury
Hold off till after trade deadline when smoke clears and hopefully we have moved a few guys and give them their 25 game exposure. Same with Frost would rather see him playing 1st line minutes with Phantoms then 4th line here

Logically, you should also want York sent down.

Didn’t everyone on here just complain about developing players? In regards to Alison. Can’t stay healthy, immediately call him up after a handful of games? What kind of logic is that? Let the kid play and get his footing in the AHL.

Wouldn't bother me one bit if he was. Dont want these young guys getting used to this losing atmosphere. Only difference with York is at least he is getting quality minutes. I want to lose as much as we can..clear out who we can ..and let the kids develop a few more weeks with Phantoms till tdl clears.

1. That is not true. Allison has great AHL numbers. Both guys have been injured a lot but are healthy now. Allison with 3 goals in the last 3 games. Sandin with 5 points in the last 5 games.
2. It would run right off Allison and he would help the environment for the team. I don’t know for sure on Sandin’s personality.
3. Fine but Allison only needs a few more games at most. Frost is up where he needs to be just need to get him wingers that score.

He's going to be 25 in October and already showed he was NHL quality at the end of last season. Playing him on the Phantoms now is pointless. He already hurt himself in the AHL once, no reason to give him a chance to do it again when the Flyers are playing trash like Mayhew in their top 9.

Is the 0-16 in shoot-outs a typo?

I think it will take no more than the value of income foregone by Comcast during full re-bulld years.

Based on this, and assuming a revenue loss of 20% per year, that is about $160 mil over 5 years (assuming about average rebuild length of time).

So you are about 0.0009% correct!

York had 13 minutes last game.

Trade deadline is two months and 23 games away.

Watching the Rangers beat up Toronto"s defense last night think they would be a great trade partner for RR. They are desperate and we may be able to strike early with them. Kreider 25th goal looks like they kept the right vets for their 3 yr rebuild. Hard to believe how good they look with little from Lafreinre and Kakko

If those two kids hit, which I think the will, they'll be a juggernaut and a real problem moving forward.

Can't possibly sit Zack Attack 2.0. You need a guy like him playing every single game if you want to be a bottom 5 team.

3 points in 34 games for Vancouver last season
3 points in 37 games for Philly so far this season

That's the type of consistent effort the authentic fans respect.

I've been told he makes a major impact.

Comcast's FY2020 revenue was $130.560B. $32M (1 year of revenue loss) is about 0.03%

Not sure how much they'd really care.
