2022/23 Roster Thread XVII: The Days are Getting Longer

[Curufinwe]

I’m not even 100% convinced they even want to trade Provorov. I think it’s potentially more so Provorov not wanting to be here anymore driving that bus across the line.

They can't possibly want to pay him what he'll demand on an extension starting in 2025. It will be $10M+ knowing how deluded Provorov is.

Bears Phantoms on nhl network tonight @ 7pm est.

Of 605 players with at least 300 minutes played this year, Best D Braun is still the only guy with zero points.

546 minutes played.

But just think about how much defense that translates into! I guarantee you he's playing way more defense than most of those other guys.

Flyers Twitter account running with this “The Best One” nickname is cringe inducing.

I didn't know where the f*** it came from either. An internet search revealed to me it's a nickname given to him by......you guessed it.....Barstool.

 

[CapnZin]

Miller Lite? From 2 Hextall picks? Man, if I was a maven of craft beer, I would be losing my damn mind.

Yes, but what surprises me most is not seeing Carchidi lurking in the background

I still think there’s some fight on their end to not give up on their preconceived notions of what Provorov should be. Then I think there’s a fear of moving him & see him play better in a better environment when they’re likely getting a future based trade package without a lot of insurance to be something pretty good.

Well they are all stupid pieces of shit, so that checks out.

 

[captainpaxil]

Big ups on the hardways and and the numbers were paying. Good table for craps

Maybe they sneakily alluded to a B.O.A.T. anchor there.

 

[DancingPanther]

Kevin Hayes might be my least favorite Flyer of all time. It's a tie between him and that Bob Clarke

Further confirms how amazingly stupid that whole organization is.

The Flyers and Barstool deserve each other.

 

[Curufinwe]

Allison has only been on the ice for 5 goals against in 375 ES minutes. He has the lowest ES GA/60 of any forward in the league who has played that much - 0.8.

Surprisingly, the forward with the worst ES GA/60 is ROR at 5.46.

What if I told you that Bryce Harper is buddies with Portnoy too?

I find it criminal that Allison plays so little overall per game. Dude is a gamer and if given the right time and players, he could do quite a lot.

 

[kudymen]

Do you expect Sanheim to do anything but say good things about any of his partners?

Every day with Hakstok: “That’s just gm talk. Come on “

Yet: “Sanheim said only nice things about risto sooooooo”

 

[Rebels57]

For me it's now a 5 way tie between Hayes, the Racist, the Homophobe, MacDonald, and harkening back to my younger days...Jody f***ing Hull

@deadhead I have a question.

It is February. For months, you assured me that, by now, we'd be entering Month Two of the Revolving Door where we'd see a nonstop stream of prospects getting NHL experience on the third pair and bottom six. I told you that was not going to happen because the people who manage the team do no want it to happen. You in turn said that it is sure to happen because Tortorella will be in charge of the whole team and Fletcher will only exist to obey his commands.

None of that happened. Instead, we have no revolving door because, as I said, management has no interest in playing youth and thinks doing so is a problem.

So. Would you like to admit you were wrong?

 

[Rebels57]

Portnoy is a weird one for me..like I know he's a sometimes problematic douchebag, but he's also not a total piece of shit. Certainly an arrogant provocateur, but I can't help but not hate him. He reminds me of some of the people I grew up with that i'm nothing alike but still got along with.

As someone who watches the philles...*checks notes* when they're in the world series, I'm ok with that.

Didn't you know, Beef? It's about winning now! The lines are set and that's a good thing.

Brown is so bad they couldn't possibly play youth with him, but that's not blocking youth somehow.

But for real don't be surprised if these idiots are buyers. They've been six or seven points out of the WC spot for weeks, haven't made up any ground, and haven't moved in the standings, but they're stupid people.
