I really question some people's inability (or unwillingness) to read on here sometimes.

I don't know, Goolius Boozler sounds like a Lavi-era type of guy. I'd put my money on either Bismo Funyuns or Nyquillus Dillwad. Although I think they should take Colonel Indiana Longnuts or Eyeluvver Butterdogsheds if they're still there.

Is he a hard worker who excels at getting punched in the face? If so, he's got a chance to make the team out of camp, as we'll sorely be lacking in those facets of the game this year.

So if the Knights win the Cup in a 30 team league it won't be on the level of the 67' Flyers who were eliminated in the first round in a 12 team league? Where are you coming up with this stuff?

So just came across this list of the "Top 15 Worst Philadelphia Flyers Players Ever" (Top Worst, wtf???)

https://www.thesportster....phia-flyers-players-ever/

I get that players like Bryzgalov, Lecavalier, etc. didn't live up to their hype. But how can you put those two, Therien, Svoboda, and Podein on the list when players like Roman Vopat, Pavel Brendl, Stephane Beauregard, Jason Bowen, and Claude Boivin are left off?

Alright, I'll look you up.

I'm mostly curious about how you feel about the cluster of dmen in the next tier after Dahlin. Hughes, Boqvist, Bouchard, and Dobson.

- Nucker101


You Canuck fan you. I'm highest on Hughes and Dobson as my #2/3 d-men. They're very different from each other obviously. One is more a traditional top pair 2-way guy; the other an x-factor Ghost type. High on both. Bouchard I think is overhyped. Boqvist I'm not as high on either. I'd have them in that order. I do have detailed poop I've written, but I don't want to inundate. Maybe I'll PM. These aren't Flyers targets anyway.

Did you hear the rumor about Juolevi's crippling video game addiction?

I feel better about myself knowing that I have them in the same order. Loved Hughes since I first saw him play, Dobson I like more and more as I watch him and read about him from people who watch him play full games. I was expecting to love Bouchard with his stat line, seemed like a great moneyball pick on the surface and then I saw him actually play Haven't seen enough of Boqvist, but multiple concussions and questionable hockey sense scares me.


Hopefully Juolevi's fornite career is successful

In 1987, the Flyers drafted a player named Marc Strapon.

That was Simon Pegg's favorite player.

“On video games – and I’m not going to say the player’s name,” began Marek.“ I really doubt he’s going to make it to the NHL and it’s because of a video game addiction. To the point where his junior general manager told me that they’ve had him go to counseling over it because he’ll play until all hours of the night and into the morning and then he’ll have no energy the next day. He’ll be a write-off. And it is that bad. He has this compulsion for playing video games until all hours.

“I swore that I wouldn’t say the player’s name. But it’s unfortunate. He’s a recent first-round draft pick for a very, very prominent NHL team – will probably never play in the NHL because of a video game addiction.”

“One thing I do know,” Friedman noted, “Is I know there are teams who will say, ‘After a certain point in the season, we don’t want those things on the road,’ and stuff like that. It’s sort of like MLB teams and golf clubs. Was there a point in the season where you told your players, ‘Okay, no more golf clubs on the road.’ And I do know of teams that have done that.

“But an addiction being the reason they haven’t made the NHL? Boy, that’ll be a heck of a story when somebody tries to do it.”

“And hopefully,” said Marek, ”And again, this is information that’s six months old. Actually, you might say a year old now. But it’s a terrible story because this guy is a good junior hockey player. This guy is a good player and was a high pick – and I’m probably saying too much right there – but there’s a good chance he’s not going to make it to the NHL and his general manager said, ‘Yeah, video game addiction is bad. It’s bad with this kid.’"


RUMORS RUMORS RUMORS. Not Juolevi necessarily, but someone found an interview with a teammate saying how much video games he played. Could be anyone. He plays in Liiga now and is doing well, so it might not be him. But there were reports from there too about work ethic. It could be Mordecai tbh.

Why would we pay $7.5-8 mil for 7 years for a PP1 (on Washington's PP yet) d-man having a career year he likely doesn't replicate? Is that a need or fit or good value? He's nothing special in his career 5v5 and needs PP1 time to even get close to that value. Ghost seems to be doing reasonably okay there.
