2020/21 Roster Thread IV: A New Hope

[Appleyard]

Size?

Pouliot is (really) just under 6ft. Poor on D. And kind of shys away from physical contact.

 

[Bigkarl]

Anything happen to farabee in last nights game? Hows he playing?

He’s not averaging 4 ppg anymore. He sucks

 

[deadhead]

What impresses me about Farabee so far is how much more physical he is this year, the added strength wasn't media hype, he's maturing into his body. Last year he was consistently rag dolled, now he can hold his own.

 

[flyersnorth]

With Hogg, Braun, Gus , and Friedman all in the line up, we re f***ED

I'm gonna go ahead and delude myself into believing that each team has a set number of injuries, and we just happen to be front loading them.

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

@CanadianFlyer88 Did I do this? Should I write an apology note? I'm so sorry.

I will take this as a sign that they can live with him being a pressbox seat warmer. If I think otherwise, there is only sadness.

 

[deadhead]

Friedman is next man up and Ghost should be back by the weekend or so.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Feel free to use this post as a dislike button

Oh for f***'s sake.

This team always needs more Veteran McVeteranness and Size McSizeface.

Hahaha f*** my life

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

I’m so glad I unfollowed Carchidi on twitter years ago.

I’m generally surprised the Inquirer hasn’t forced him to retire at this point.

He'll fit right in.

This doesn’t make any sense. Has Mark Friedman ceased to exist?

Meltzer is so weird.

 

[Striiker]

42 CF% in Liiga this year. Wasn't great last year either. Had solid numbers in the NHL but SSS in a limited role.

I'm all for taking shots but they won't even play Friedman who is probably of a similar ilk at this point.

Oh trust me, I wasn’t even dreaming that this was a possibility. I’m just saying this is yet another available option that they’ll pass up.

They’ll just continue to happily run Braun, Hagg, and Gus while they could replace two of those players with Friedman and Honka, then eventually Ghost. But of course they won’t do it.

To fix a problem you must first recognize the problem. Fletcher confirmed he believes all three of these guys can help this team win a cup by giving them brand new contracts and I don’t think he suddenly opened his eyes after 4 games.

 

[Striiker]

Oh oh, Myers ain't good

 

[Rich Nixon]

(regular season) winning smile, baby.

 

[Curufinwe]

All these means is Friedman is in and someone from Taxi is going to roster , prob Morin

The roster is full right now, and they have less than $700K in cap space.

 

[wankstifier]

Meltzer is so weird.

He used to cover Dallas. Maybe he’s irrationally attached to their players.

 

[Striiker]

He used to cover Dallas. Maybe he’s irrationally attached to their players.

Or maybe he knows they're going to claim Honka and he's pre-emptively selling the move.

Doesn't work, not creepy enough.

 

[wankstifier]

If his nickname is Goose, I’m on board. I don’t care if he’s terrible

 

[Adtar02]

Four games in and the crap takes are the same as before.

 

[AdamParrot]

Myers 4-6 months.

We're done.

 

[Adtar02]

Awesome

 

[AdamParrot]

Claim Honka.

Sad that Fletcher missed on Ian Cole.

Provy, Sanheim, Ghost, Cole, Honka, Braun would be still OK at least...

But right now? We're f***ed.

 

[Striiker]

If true (I have no idea who that is) then something needs to be done because we can't keep Gus, Hagg, and Braun in the lineup, even when Ghost is back. Friedman coming in is a must.

Claiming Honka seems like a no-brainer, given our situation and the fact that he's only making $700k.

Worst case scenario would be Fletcher making a trade because *gestures at everything else he's done*

 

[orangey]

Well that was a fun season. Bummer.
