Bill Meltzer: Training Camp: Day 2 Report

Farabee said #86 is his favorite number, and the first number he wore growing up. He’s also up to around 185 weight-wise,which is great because last developmental Camp I think he was around 170 he said to me.

“We will do everything to have a safe and healthy season.”

Frost 0 for 5 on shootout? Born Flyer!

Keep your chin up Sheldon. Way to turn the blog into a negative as usual.

He has been OK so far. Hasn't stood out negatively. You can see in drills why he was originally drafted so high.

Extreme longshot to be in the 6/7 role I assume?

I didn’t even realize we had him. Drafted 2012 8th overall, seems like ages ago but he’s still only 26. Potential low risk depth signing that could help out, especially in this Covid season.

Isn't he on an AHL contract? I do not know how many contracts the Flyers currently have on the NHL side

I believe it was a 2-way contract.

Any updates on where Todd Warriner and Tomi Kallio stand in training camp? I'm intrigued by the upside of Eric Chouinard, too.

bullpoop story. There's 4 cameras on each side line that sees everything. If there was any ruckus on the Eagles side, it would have been picked up

dont believe everything you read, dummy

Good old school hockey. Have a player in a new position who has to prove himself, put him at the bottom of the depth chart with the lowest rated players as line mates. Yeah...he'll really shine there.

Agree, he should be with Couturier and Giroux at a minimum.

Yes... assuming Zamula and Pouliot are the 9/10 on the depth chart (Ghost, Hägg, Friedman as the 6/7/8), it's a longshot barring injuries.

how does Ghost skating look, compared to last season?

Sort of off topic but it sounds like the pre and post game shows are now going to be Al Morganti, Taryn Hatcher and.....Scotty Hartnell. Though I haven't seen anything one way or the other on Colby but Bundy and Kate Emmer are both gone.

He is moving well. Looked more mobile in the camp in July and has taken it from there.

What exactly does Taryn Hatcher have going for her except her looks? What exactly does she contribute to the broadcast?

I hate the fact that sports always needs to have some young attractive woman appearing for no other reason than she is young and attractive. Getting rid off knowledgeable reporters and ex-players while finding the money to hire eye candy!
