2024-25 Roster Thread #2: Midseasonnar

If you're playing a good team, with the lead in the 3rd period, they pay the other guys, too.

That is, the team that's behind tends to dominate play b/c they're willing to take more chances, we saw that against the Devils, Flyers got a number of odd man rushes b/c the Devils were pressing the issue in the O-zone.

Flyers are 3rd in scoring, 5th in high danger chances the last 30 games. That's boring?
Since Ersson returned, and is playing above average, they've been on a roll.

My man they have played conservative safe "stem the bleeding hockey" while losing

I want to show John a diagram of a hockey rink, label ozone and dzone and ask "where are opponents more likely to score? Are they more likely to score when they are in their ozone or when they are in their dzone? Do they score more when they are shooting at our goalie, or when we are shooting on theirs? Do they score more when the puck is closer to Ersson, or when the puck is further away from Ersson?"

I bet he still wouldn't get it.
 
Rip Frost and Farabee.

Would have lost it if they included Drysdale though lol.

Don't think that's illogical given the size of the contract, and Pettersson's history of erratic production.
If it was prime time Sidney, no brainer.
 
They have no interest in Miller, what planet does Kurz live on? Not a single rumor out there.

Briere has made it clear they're still building for the future and have no interest in rentals.
So why would they trade serious assets to add 31 year old Miller with 3yr/$8M left after this season?

Now if I'm a PO team that needs to upgrade my top six, I'd be all over him.
This is the kind of move the Flyers make in 2-3 years, not now.
