It’s more proof that you’re missing the point. A guy who works his ass off and plays with heart gets the attention of his coach and ice time. Every winning team has had this guy. What does this teach young kids? That you can have ND skill and get to play if you work hard. That’s a valuable lesson.

You can sit there in your Darth Vader outfit and play this like an RPG but unfortunately for you life is not a table top game.

Those teammates already got smashed into the boards/pummeled in a fight. He didn’t protect anything, and now he’s done for the night and Ottawa don’t even have to worry about him starting any more fights.

You sound like a communist :-) Look, the Flyers may have only 6 shots, but they won two fights and knocked two Senators out of the game ... hey, that's progress! Oh, and York just scored, the Flyers have 2 goals on 7 shots

Draisaitl 3rd pick overall, Stutlze is also the 3rd pick overall. If you want top end talent to build around, that is where you need to pick.

people are acting like we signed ND as the final piece to a playoff team. maybe take in some context.

As far as I’m concerned the ND signing is akin to the Torts hire. Neither are long term but you have them setting an expectation for the time period they are here. Both as a coach and as a player in the rest of their ears. The inmates no longer run the asylum and this will not be an instance of young guys pouting until the coach gets fired. You either play or you get moved. In this 4 year window.

In fact, Torts has been very upfront with his effort over results assessments. He’s gone out of his way to let media know the results don’t dictate his belief that there was effort on a team lacking talent.

I’d go as far to say that ND commands a certain respect form young, green guys that Pronger did with young idiots like Richard or Carter. No, ND is not a Norris winner..

But rather than defer to you, MJL, who knows NOTHING

I’ll defer to who I know who has been on the bus and planes with every iteration of this team for over 2 decades

Talbot was embarrassed when MAF played ahead of him last playoffs. Never really recovered.

1-12 in OT now under Tyrannosaurus Torts.

They went 4-7 last season under AV and Yeo.
