[The Rage Kage]

I guess i'll put this here?

Time to rebuild that Flyers culture! Someone was telling me its the most important thing a team can do!

Didn't he get kicked off a college hockey team previously?

More or less at ASU, yeah.

Lol. The kid with the green shirt: "Ethics Culture"

 

[Starat327]

Flipping through channels... 4-1 in the third.

I guess they're "in it" though, @Striiker For the 3 minutes I've watched theybreally look hard to play against while the knights just pass it around freely in the NZ.

If they come back and win it, I blame you.

I turned it off after I posted. Did they score I assume?

3-5 loss

You're lucky.

 

[Starat327]

3-5 loss

You're lucky.

There's no luck involved in foreseeing a Flyers loss.

 

[Striiker]

Oh look, another goal.

Weird that the guys who won’t shut up about how amazing Tippetts been don’t have a single good thing to say about Frost, who is outscoring him.

Frost has really come along later in the year. I'm still watching and he's "getting it" he's always had a higher upside than tippet.
At least people are coming around to the idea that they belong in the same conversation. I thought the tippet hate was unfair because of how he was acquired.
Good but not great young players

 

[mize370]

So looking ahead next year at right wing, who do we all think is on the outs already.
Atkinson is a torts baby. Already said he is a penalty killer for next season.
Tippett is his pet.
Konecny is the best of these 3 are far as I am concerned.
That leaves a battle between Allison, Brink, and Forester on the outside already?
So who do we move for an underwhelming return?

 

[deadhead]

I treated Frost and Tippett equally, while some were praising Frost before he did anything and trashing Tippett before he had a chance to do anything. This was a "make or break" season for both of them. Both 23 and unproven. Both flashed potential last spring playing together, and built on it this season.

Apples and oranges, I'm glad they're using Tippett on the PK, he'll have his learning curve (so did TK this year), but having a bunch of fast forwards challenging the puck, forcing turnovers and scoring SH goals is more fun than watching them collapse in a box.

I think Atkinson is the most likely to move to LW, not sure he's played there before, but as an experienced veteran, shouldn't be too much of an adjustment.
TK may be trade bait this summer.
One reason Foerster and Brink will finally finish the season in LHV is they want them to log a lot of minutes in tp 6 roles in preparation for next season.

TK, Tippett, Allison, Foerster, Brink in LHV
Or Atkinson, Tippett, Allison Foerster, Brink in LHV
Or Foerster, Tippett, Brink, Allison with Atkinson at LW

Farabee, Atkinson, Laughton, Deslauriers (Lycksell) at LW
Couts, Frost, Cates, Desnoyers at C (Gauthier is a wildcard)

I don't think Brink will play on the 4th line, top 9 or LHV to start the season.
Allison or Foerster could fit a 4th line role, or Laczynski, with Desnoyers at 4C.

You called Tippett a better passer than Frost in like November. You minimized his AHL production, savaged his numbers when he was with Deslauriers and Bellows and MacEwen and so on. No one believes this.

...and this is determined by whether the Flyers like someone or not.

His AHL production was meh, less than 0.5 ppg at ES. Far worse than say Lycksell or Desnoyers this season.

Get your story straight.
5x5:
Frost has played with Tippett 459, JVR 369, Farabee 222, MacEwen 89, TK 88, Allison 76, Deslauriers 73, Laughton 72, Bellows 62, Hayes 54, Laczynski 53, Brown 20.

Hard to minimize what didn't exist.

Please stop lying about what you did. All of us remember it. Don't pull this shit. It's a waste of our time and yours.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

The gaul to say “get your story straight” when we all saw it happen.

It’s almost like at one point those 89, 73, and 62 minute sample sizes were all we had to go off of.

Of course, someone that understands numbers and sample sizes knows this so all that can drawn from this statement being made is that the goal is to be disingenuous here.

 

[Striiker]

Frost is scoring goals at a rate of 4.01 per 60*

Tippett is scoring goals at a rate of 0.00 per 60*

Tell me they’re even close in quality. Stats don’t lie.

*one game sample size. I dare anyone to complain about cherry-picking or say it’s too small of a sample.

[deadhead]

Good. Still no word on Gauthier?

 

[Striiker]

Amazing news, since I’m told Andrae is basically Timonen.

You'll have to ask @Appleyard about that comparison.

your assuming they dont buy alot of old dogs over the summer..

Torts keeps saying hes not happy with some of the roster.. im betting he wants more washed up Vets that play the right way.. and never score
