@dsilver88 @n_santos25 @charlieo_conn The PP hasn’t been good for years across multiple coaches. To me it is mostly personnel with a sprinkle of the fact that the coaches have struggled to figure out what will work with the personnel. Good PP players are making specific passes to open up certain plays.

[ML @LundyCopter]

@BeeTEE15 They haven’t had that guy since Gagne and Briere - hoping Martone, Tyson, Bump or Michkov might turn into that guy

[ML @LundyCopter]

@dsilver88 @PeteBlackburn @gr0veez28 Yeah 3 separate coaches - it’s personnel

[ML @LundyCopter]

@jordiebarstool Been through 3 different PP coaches and it’s this bad at some point it’s then personnel

[ML @LundyCopter]

@UncleButsy Carolina is a really good PK. But the Flyers need to embrace beating them off the rush instead of setting it up. They want you to set it up. If you beat them on the entry your in the on 1 or alone…need to embrace that

[ML @LundyCopter]

@BeeTEE15 You can’t be an objective flyers fan and watch the last two physical games and think Michkov is on it or playing well. It’s not giving up on the kid to acknowledge he has 1 goal in his last 16 games and hasn’t had a grade A scoring chance it feels like in a week. He look slow

[ML @LundyCopter]

@UncleButsy Hard to take Glendenning out as he’s the only Right Handed Center. Hathaway would probably be the you for me.

[ML @LundyCopter]

@UncleButsy To be fair - I thought Grundstrom was moving pretty good last game

[ML @LundyCopter]

@UncleButsy At some point you have to just acknowledge it’s the players right? It’s been 3 different coaching staffs and they can’t fix it.z TK and Tippett are not ideal PP guys, Forester seemed to have juice on the PP but he’s hurt. Zegras and Michkov offer something but that’s it

[ML @LundyCopter]

@UncleButsy Would be nice to see this team maybe take a Different approach in the offseason if they can’t find a 1C - how about we run out these 8 W Mich - Martone, Forester - TK, Barkey - Tippet, Grebenekin - Bump, and say crew it and just come at teams in waves?

[ML @LundyCopter]

@BeeTEE15 I agree with this and at some point doesn’t it reflect poorly on the room? I mean the rokm needs a jolt. A lot of these guys have been been here for 5+ years with no success.

[ML @LundyCopter]

@UncleButsy Starting to feel like Briere, Jones and Hillary have lost the plot. “The players will tell us when they’re ready for the next step” - when is someone going to let him know this group may never be ready for the next step?

[ML @LundyCopter]

@BeeTEE15 They fired the one guy who actually was holding anyone accountable…insanity

[ML @LundyCopter]

@UncleButsy Let’s get funky -
Bump Zegras Mich
Barkey Dvorak Tippett
Grebby Cates TK

[ML @LundyCopter]

@UncleButsy 100% agree it can be taught and as I said I’d play him at C the rest of the year, game reps are needed but it’s also on the player to learn and be willing. Tocchet has got to play him at C and he’s gotta be willing to do the things necessary to stay there.

[ML @LundyCopter]

@JoyOnBroad Was such a bad penalty too lol

[ML @LundyCopter]

@UncleButsy The numbers don’t work on at fwd. They already have Michkov, TK, Forester, Martone, Tippett, Barkley. That’s your 3 sets of W. That makes Z a 2C. Dvorak is locked in at 3C. Have to take a risk on finding 1C & that means everyone is available to find a 1C & one more 1st pair D.

[ML @LundyCopter]

@UncleButsy You just gotta keep putting the same guys out there and let them blow it every game - it’s just so pathetic - TK and Sanheim have been awful in OT forever and they still don’t send them out there….its truly pathetic

[ML @LundyCopter]

@UncleButsy At some point they need to accept that they are going to need a bad guy to step in a force the movement. Torts seemed willing to be the guy…but they bailed on it. Tell Couts to waive or be the 4C for the foreseeable future
