Flyers traded Attard to EDM for some fossil

He’s 26.

If that’s a fossil….

 

[SnS]

You're right.

I just hope Ghost and Necas have fun. Everything else is secondary.

I want to see a Ghost goal, personally.

off of Tort's head somehow

off of Tort's head somehow

I’d love that.

 

[Danko]

All I want for my birthday is Freedom Fries....and a Michkov Hatty

 

[Kelmitchell2]

Come on, start fedotov, lose 10-3 mickov hatty

I hate Danny for this, attard was my bunny to captain

 

[deadhead]

No they weren't. They had plenty of guys to call up. But they thought doing that would be giving up on the playoffs. It's more of the same constant half measures across the board.

They did call them up.
Attard 12g, Belpedio 12g, Ginning 9g.

 

[freakydallas13]

They traded for Johnson only b/c they were short 3 D-men (Walker, Seeler and Risto).

They had several AHL d-men they could have called up, but sure. They HAD NO CHOICE but to trade a pick for a rental JJ. That's definitely what rebuilding teams do.

There was a bunch of guys on waivers they could’ve claimed if they just wanted bodies.

Jacob Moevare had just been signed to an extension upon being waived.

I am excited to see Matvei Michkov in person! I really wanted him to be in a Canes jersey but I knew it wasn't possible. Still I think he's going to be a treasure. But as we all know, the treasure is the friends we made along the way.

Same! Because I'm so excited I'm mentally preparing myself for Torts to bench him midway through the first for no reason.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Oh no what are we going to do.

 

[Hanover Fist]

Hot damn that means the return of Delo!

 

[Danko]

Hot damn that means the return of Delo!

Faces will be punched tonight.

That's nothing. Johnson played 17 games, every game after the deadline. Belpedio played zero games after the deadline. Andrae played zero games after the deadline. Andrae in particular should have been playing, but he wasn't because of Johnson.

The only reason they "needed" him was to keep their bizarro half-in/half-out indecisive non-rebuilding playoff "run" alive.

Andrae clearly wasn't ready last year, no he shouldn't have been playing for a team in PO contention.
Not even sure he's ready this year, check back in 10-20 games.

The move was a reward for the team after trading Walker, pick #108 isn't exactly a premium asset.
And Johnson played well, 15:33 at 5x5%, xGF 54.18%, HDCF 58.02%.

Rebuilding teams don't care if they are competing for a playoff spot, and they also don't trade picks for rentals at the deadline.

I know you think literally every move Briere has made is a rebuilding move, but that just isn't the case.

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Flyers are tied for 2nd to last in the league and are 3rd to last in shots per game. Offense is gone and the Canes are going to f***ing clown this team.

 

[freakydallas13]

Serious question: out of all the games the Flyers have played this season, how many were they the better team at 5v5?

 

[bennysflyers16]

Over under on Ghost points tonight? I say over 3

Is he playing in the NHL ?

Clearly wasn't ready on the west coast trip either, wasn't till 2 weeks later.

You could go thru the games here, but overall they are 31st in 5on5 GF%, and 27th in xGF%.

Team Season Totals - Natural Stat Trick

16 goals and 31 goals allowed at 5on5 in 12 games.

Seems bad. The numbers support the eye test to start the season it seems.

 

[Magua]

It’s a shame we’ll never get to see if Anthony Richard can have a function on this team with enviable expensive 4th line depth. Preseason means everything, except when it doesn’t.
