Thanks Bill

Even though Wolf wasn’t tested with only 10 shots, he still hasn’t given up a goal. Does he start the next game? I’d keep him in there.

I thought they'd go back to Knight myself... But now you see how well Woll played and you don't want to be switching back with the Swedes up next.. cause if Knight gets bombed there .. well he's toast ... Gotta be Woll going forward.

In the Sweden write up is that a typo or is that how you say score in Swedish? Honest question.

Haven’t watched all games but reading and seeing highlights York and brink seem to be doing alright.

Zegras seems to be the best player of the tourney so far.

Agree with you on Zegras. I like the way Brink goes to the “dirty” areas. The announcer’s seem to really like him. But it will be nice just to see him finish one of his chances around the net. It maybe getting a little frustrating for him but still more games to show his abilities. The biggest “disappointment “ so far has to be Caufield getting 0 of the 30 points that his team scored yesterday. That’s in spite of playing top 6, 1st PP, and leading the team in shots. I’m not his biggest fan.

Brink and Caulfield (more so Caulfield) have both missed some grade A chances the past 2 games.

Hey Bill,

About the training camp roster...36 skater spots go really fast when I start thinking on it. I know you have said some players are staying in Europe until there is a definite AHL timeframe. When do you think the Flyers will release their list?

Thanks for all the updates!

Cole is shooting a bunch but is missing the net as well.

Just what I’ve seen. USA and Canada have hit a bunch of posts

When was the last time a team had more goals than the opposition had shots in a game?

Not sure. I do remember a women’s Olympic game where Canada scored 82goals. Yeah 82I think it was in the qualifier but still. 82 f big goals.

imagine if wentz was benched sooner in the season

wentz would not have made that throw

I also find it interesting it happened twice on the same day.

Imagine if Eagles run the table and Carolina wins today? And Eagles go to playoffs? And then next year, after there is some film on Hurts, turns out its easy to stop him and we get a mid-level pick?

That would be so Philly.

11 goals against an overmatched opponent, Brink must have went off.

Oh it is. Loss to Russia stinks. Can’t wait for the other big matchups.

From Larry Brooks:
There are 123 teams among the Big Four North American Men’s Sports Leagues (MLB, NFL, NBA and NHL).

Only one of them received a loan under the Paycheck Protection Program.

That team is the Pittsburgh Penguins, who received a loan of $4.82 million through the program authorized by the CARES Act.

Burkle also just bought Nerverland Ranch.

I prefer Hurts too, but doubt it would have made much difference with this team.
