has this ever happened! where a player gets named capt. and then chucked to the 4th line ?

feels like a NHL first... go Flyers...

ps hey Torts... maybe, just maybe if you didnt run ur guys at 110% every day. they wouldnt be worse down at 3/4 of the season..

Torts is the living impression of that meme were the guy shoots the guy in the chair then complains about the dead guy...
I think I have an answer, if not the answer, if the story is right

In the early years of the Lightning, they did not have a captain until like their 4th year. Terry Crisp was the coach came to Phil Esposito who was the GM (and the lamenting storyteller) and said he wanted a captain as the Lightning were having their first good season in 95-96.

However it was decided, Paul Ysebart was the choice, and he was named captain. Soon after, and I do think it was the next game, Ysebart was immediately scratched. So, that obviously annoyed everyone.

G with a quick hit on Sportsnet before the game. Says it's always weird coming back to Philly as a visiting player but has never lost at Wells Fargo as a member of the opposition... and doesn't plan to tonight. :laugh:

Shameful that he didn't play his whole career with the Flyers.
I mean, come on, it’s not like the Flyers could use a top notch pp quarterback who scores nearly a point per game and is dominant on faceoffs….

Flyers gonna Flyer
5 years away from being 5 years away

With him most likely extending Seeler and Walker, it’s most likely more than 5 years.

Per Al Morganti, the Flyers will really appreciate Atkinson's energy and game breaking ability tonight.

When’s his last goal, November ??

You better believe that goal last night doesn't happen with Atkinson on the ice.
