@charlieo_conn through 3 games Montreal has been outshot 92-47. Philly was outshot 96-74 through 3 games vs Carolina. If Philly won game 2 in OT, which they deserved, you can make the argument that they’ve played better through 3 games. Montreal just has players who finish.
@avappleyard if the Flyers draft 6-7 and Misa, Hagens, and Frondell are off the board, would you take Martone over the remaining centers? Curious how you have him ranked compared to Desnoyers and O’Brien. I know the need for centers but don’t want to pass up on higher potential.
@avappleyard Alex, I’m not sure if you’ve scouted Alex Bump much, but what do you think his potential is? He seems very noticeable every shift in college hockey. Curious to see how you think it will translate to the NHL.
@ADiMarco25@DailyFaceoff If the flyers trade Laughton without getting a center in return, do you see them making another trade to acquire one? Not saying they are going to get their 1C but someone competent to put in between TK and Kuzmenko.
@ADiMarco25 with the lack of centers on the current roster and within the organization, do you think Buffalo is an ideal trade partner for the Flyers? Cozens (not likely), Kulich, and Ostlund would all instantly become the best flyers center prospect in the system.
@ADiMarco25 Since you said the flyers will use the cap space, do you think they are planning on going after Askarov? Is the timing of this material breach being a day after Askarov asked for a trade just coincidence or is there traction to that?
@ADiMarco25 Anthony, do you think they would prefer a guy like Krebs over Nick Robertson due to the positional need at center? I saw Toronto has made him available and I feel like Robertson is someone the flyers would be interested in as well based on age and needed a new start.
@JameyBaskow Jamey, do you think they will try and make a trade for a top 6 center if the coots injury is in fact long term? If they do, I would have to assume they would want to make the trade asap so the player is in majority of training camp.
I plan to curate a formal goodbye but for now I wanted to acknowledge this change. Philly will always be a major part of me and my family. This picture seemed fitting. Thank you for absolutely everything❤️
