I agree on that but I don't have an issue with the players being positive.

Cates is not really a center and Couts should be the 2C on this team.

I thought you said Couts is cooked?

did you want to maybe clarify the contradicting statements you made today or are you good with it?


the backpedaling is hilarious

I personally would lean towards not bringing Michkov over for next season.
- MJL



I haven't stated that the Flyers should not bring Michkov over, fool.
- MJL


oh, ok...i see the discrepancy now.

you're saying the Flyers should bring him over - but you personally wouldn't bring him over, like, to your house to play in the backyard?

do i have this right?

you crack me up you think they will trade laughton.

RP will get a 1st in 2 years. That's an interesting take.

- hello it's me 2050

Laughton was worth a first supposedly before he signed his extension in 20-21 with a career high of 13 goals that season. Poehling will get a ton of minutes with Tortorella and the center depth as is especially if they trade Laughton to up his profile.

Not career wise ... just as the season went along last season. Couts has even confirmed this in recent interviews.

Emerald City Hockey: Emily Kaplan on ESPN’s The Point on the Seattle Kraken firing Dave Hakstol on Monday.

Host: “Seattle fired Dave Hakstol Emily. That’s 17 coaching changes since the end of last season. Why and who could replace him?”

Kaplan: “Yeah, this one somewhat shocking, somewhat not shocking. What I can tell you is that Ron Francis did not want to make this move. Dave Hakstol is now one of four coaches who lost their jobs this cycle who didn’t even have their extension kick-in yet.

But I was told at the exit meetings with players, there was a handful of players, and pretty significant players, who made it clear to management, ‘I don’t want to play on this team in the future if Dave Hakstol is still the coach.’ And that forced them to make a change.

Go ahead, that would certainly be another one of your good choices and surely help your standing.

Oh come on .. you have got to be blind if you can't see that he is a very good hockey player and already an asset.
- jd250


Somehow I think that if Frost had scored 28 points and was down 51 goals to 36 at ES this season, you wouldn't be calling him a very good hockey player. You would be saying that he can't score enough and was bad defensively.

Two very different players with very different roles. Poehling ideally is a bottom forward and was over played last season because of necessity. Frost should be a top 6 forward that is consistently generating offense and helping the power play. Now you can say Frost lead the team in PP points this year and that would be true, but that is not saying much when the team had a worst PP in the league and historically the worst PP in franchise history.

In his convoluted view, Poehling is a very good player and Frost and Farabee are not.

Just having fun here folks, but pretending for a moment the Leafs might look to move on from Marner, Draisaitl wants out of Edmonton if they don't win and Michkov gets out of his contract and comes to the Flyers for next season, here is my crazy off-season plan:

1. Trade TK, Frost, 1st round pick to Edmonton for Draisaitl
2. Trade Laughton, Farabee, 1st round pick to Toronto for Marner
3. Sign Michkov to ELC

Now the Flyers top 6 next year is:

Draisaitl - Michkov - Marner
Couts - Tippet - Foerster

I can dream can't I?

I like you MJL, I really do. And because I like you I want to be honest with you. You troll quite a bit on this forum. Not just at me but at a lot of posters. Take it for what it's worth.

Tell me what you are basing this on. How do you compare these three players. Honest question.

Like the Flyers, you haven't learned that you can't trade your way to the Stanley Cup. Why those teams take Frost and Farabee with how you label them? With Farabee being an okay player with okay skill? I though Marner was a soft player that can't win board battles? Why do you want to trade for him now?

I'm basing it on your statements. Poehling is a 4th line role player. Frost and Farabee are young skilled players that belong on a scoring line.
