Anyone want to touch Clarke? I want to see the lengths it may go tonight

 

[Beef Invictus]

Frost reminds me of Kevin Hayes, both talented but play when they feel like it.

SIT !

Frost is nothing like Hayes

 

[freakydallas13]

What vendetta?
He sat Cates for 4 games.
Frost needs a kick in the pants, he's 25, he's started for two full seasons, there are no excuses left.

2 full seasons minus about 20 games being scratched and how ever many more being benched.

Frost had a slow start but it isn’t because of effort

 

[Curufinwe]

Frost taking his turn on the scratch seat isn’t nearly as annoying as the fact the Flyers are still playing a 6 minute a night goon in 2024.

I’ve also seen people he deserves to sit because of lost faceoffs, but he’s at 52%.

 

[ponder719]

Of course, on a team with two competent centers, the go-to move is to sit one of them. Tortorella's crime spree must end.

 

[VladDrag]

Are we sure Frost is sitting? As long as it isn’t more than a game than ok.

He's noticeably lost a lot of powerplay faceoffs.

He probably drew ire yesterday for losing a defensive zone faceoff after an icing that led to a goal against.

When you're not in favour with a coach, things like that stand out, unfortunately.

 

[Curufinwe]

We really do have the worst coach possible for a rebuild. Put Couturier on PP1 if face offs are so damn important. Of course Coots was trending towards scratch status just a few games ago in this absurd abstraction of a hockey team.

And Frost is 19-15 in PP faceoffs

 

[Boocowski]

Fedotov?

That pretty much makes everything else irrelevant.

 

[deadhead]

You never notice Frost unless it works to defend coaching and management decisions.

I've complimented him when he's played well, which he does at times.
Unfortunately, there is too much space between those times.
He's been meh this season so far, not awful, more like a mediocre 3C.
Now I think he can play better, his ceiling is probably a mediocre 2C.

Why people are so sensitive about him gets me, he's just not that good.

Luckily we were told on good authority he won’t play much.

Six minutes a game isn't very much, though, is it?

As was stated earlier this team is weak at center and even if he’s playing mediocre why do you bench him and deploy a useless face puncher. I also think his short leash is affecting his play. Torts constant juggling is never going to allow the team to mesh. Pick a lineup and play it for 10 games for heavens sake. Its time to play the guy or move on for the sake of team chemistry.

Frost hasn’t even been that bad. Very snake bitten but could easily have a few more points.

Only a buffoon would bench him over trying to play through it.

Yesterday was a pretty bad game. Lots of turnovers. He should still play over Nicky fists

2024 and scratching skill over a 6 minute 4th line face puncher

 

[Tripod]

I thought you don't change a lineup after a win? Guess that only holds true for the shit players

Not sure he even has been scratched. May just be one of Torts nephews here stirring up shit.

 

[BringBackHakstol]

Torts is a joke. Erratic person, exactly the kind of people I cut out of my life

 

[Magua]

RW is the deepest position on the team. Center depth is so poor they had to pretend Luchanko was NHL ready. Tippett will never be scratched. If you swapped every Frost and Tippett stat, Frost would still be scratched.

 

[Gert B Frobe]

Not surprised that Frost is sitting. The dork of a coach needs someone to blame for his short comings. This vendetta is disgusting. I don’t see how Briere can justify allowing this to continue.

I'd sit him. If he's not scoring or creating offensively then he's a liability. He looked like ass yesterday, and he's small and soft so give him a rest.

Tortorella's shortcomings? His team isn't that good. He's a very good coach with a middle of the pack roster that plays like ass in their own end.

Disagree. He's a good coach with a long record of success.

Torts constant juggling is never going to allow the team to mesh. Pick a lineup and play it for 10 games for heavens sake. Its time to play the guy or move on for the sake of team chemistry.

I would definitely change things up after that game yesterday. They are thin at center. Frost does not contribute at all in his own end, and they've sucked in their own end.

List his successes in the salary cap era

It’s a short list.
