Good for Fedotov. It would be stupid to give up on him after 10 games.

Flyers are boring and a trap game team. Teams will be lulled to sleep and every now and then Flyers will squeak out a win they shouldn’t

This team would be unwatchable without TK. He’s like the entire Flyers offense outside of Michkov on the PP and Tippett here and there

They still suck and TBL should be ashamed

Team just might be legit

It was always early in the season to be panicking

Good game, missed the 1st but the rest was exciting, good goalie play kept the Flyers down to 1 goal, could have easily had 3 or 4, they were getting good shots on Val.

Farabee had his best game of the season, Couts is playing more like a top six center, but was a bit overused in this game. Michkov will probably replace Brink who was meh or DeLo. Do they keep that Couts line together? Risto is legitimate, people have to accept it. Andrae playing better each game, so is Drysdale. Both are mobile, but Drysdale is the best pure skater on the team, you can see why they're intrigued with him, really nice agility forwards and backwards. If his brain catches up to his skates he could be dangerous.

Players are breaking out of funks, Tippett goal in the last two games and very active.

maybe:
Tippett - Couts - TK
Farabee - Frost - Michkov
Foerster - Laughton - Brink
Richard - Cates - Hathaway

Fedotov is a work in progress, TB blew a couple prime opportunities, but he looks smoother and was tracking the puck well. Dilly is working hard with him. But they didn't sign him on a whim, two years ago he had a great PO run in the KHL.

Good enough game for Fedotov to get some confidence since it appears this is a 3-way net for now.

I don’t really have a problem with Michkov sitting given the reasoning. No one trusts it because its the Flyers, though, and rightfully so. Picked the perfect game to do it, ESPN+ exclusive on the road, made it easy enough for people to ignore. there’s a load management trend setting up around the league for rookie players, because they don’t want them to hit the wall too soon. He’s never played 65 games in a season, in Russia, now you’re gonna try to get him to play 82 in the NHL. Not hard to see why that may not work.

If this organization is just going to ruin Michkov, I’d rather trade him he’s one of my fav prospects ever. I don’t even think I like the flyers as much as I use to I’m more into players and watching talent. I mean 15 years of absolute trash, hard to be mentally engaged in a team like this.

Frost decides nah don’t bother even trying to move the puck up ice
That right there is the Tortorella effect. If left to play with his instincts he takes it right up ice, but he is so scared of making a mistake. Mission accomplished - Tortorella has effectively neutered the creativity right out of him.
