Ersson back to LV. I guess the wildcard push has been put on hold.

The only problem is that the Ducks are in position to add one in the entry draft and the Flyers... probably not lol

Would you trade Konecny for Zegras? Also, the Ducks have like 15 million in cap space.

I get the move. They don't want to lose Sandstrom to waivers. It sucks for sure but its necessary.

A sane and rational decision. Good job, Sam. Hope he plays awesome in the AHL playoffs; it would be great experience.

Angelo probably hits harder but in terms of frequency. Identical. They're pretty much the same player although I give a slight edge to Gostisbehere defensively.

what about compete level and attitude? Those intangibles don't count?

I have no idea and it doesn't really matter to me. The Flyers would probably be dealing him FOR a draft pick or two at the deadline instead of already having traded two 2nds, a 3rd, and 4th to trade him only to have to replace him with the same guy at 500k more for more years.

one year is negligible really in terms of Tony D. Ghost will get 3/4 years is my guess. Money wise, no idea. over 5 probably.

I watched the part where he threw his body at the puck and totally missed it, letting Chicago walk in and score their game winning goal.

Btw, I've been calling him Tony Angelo for months. Nice to see it catching on.

TDA's attitude got him booted off two teams before, so let's not go there.

I would. And I've been driving the TK fan bus since before draft day.

I'm fine with the move. Don't mind the better goalie in LV for this season. This wildcard banter by the broadcast has to stop ASAP. Sandstrom over Ersson helps squash this ridiculous thought. Let's get Fletcher fired and start trading players off rhe roster.

Glad to see some positive results but lets keep in mind including the goal tonight more than half (13) of Frosts 22 points have come against

Anaheim
Arizona
Columbus
Chicago

- Fopa21


yeah that doesn't get mentioned. 8 against Arizona alone.

he wont get claimed imo. They should just have carried 3. It is clear the coach has limited confidence in Felix. So they will ride Hart rest of the way which is fine. Rather have seen Sam stay and split the games or close to split.

And almost half of TK's 48 points have come against non-PO teams. So what?

no lets go there. Talking about on ice attitude anyway.

Ghost was an issue as well. Defied Haxstol when he was coach. Clearly had an issue with AV.

Not sure that's 100 percent accurate. Ny was a pr move due to the racial comments (can see this for NY). Carolina traded him, they didn't just let him go. and canes are always concerned about the cap. Otherwise we could say they booted hamilton as well.

self-explanatory. What's frost do when against better players?

If you want to discuss TK by all means please do.

Lyon making highlights again. Hope he gets a backup job. Stolie is playing…every one remembers Bob…Flyers have Hart, Sandstrom, Ersson, plus prospects. Flyers organization turning into a goalie factory is the plot twist no one saw coming.

I thought he used a slur with a teammate. it was one of the incidents that culminated the season he was scratched by NYR.

will look

TDA was healthy scratched by Zettler in Syracuse for lax play w/o the puck. Same in NY under David Quinn. Torts has healthy scratched him this season.

Guy isn't easy to coach.

I would think barring injury or trade, Sandstrom gets a better longer look in the second half than the first.
