Getting to keep him is a gift. They better make the most of this gift. A top 6 is Jack, Bratt, Nico, Meier, Mercer, Holtz is f***ing hilarious.
Yeah, I think too many people are just writing him off because he didn’t make a seem less transition into the NHL. I still think his upside is the good version of Brock Boeser before the injuries which would be an insane player to have as your 6th best forward on the roster.

I‘m sure that thread will be filled with cordial discussion.

24 hours until the Devils play the Avs. That is going to be a hell of a game I think. Avs are on a tear and the Devils should be riding high after the Meier trade. Not to mention the Devils are on a roll of their own overall. Hopefully the rest since Saturday and the recent flu bug has them ready to go.

There was a time in my life that I would engage in these threads and I just can't do that to myself anymore.

its all total gravy at this point. all the pressure is on them. Even if they sweep us. Silver lining, rags more than likely don't make it past boston, or even the west team after the east gauntlet. And then they lose another 1st rounder.
If we take it to 6 or 7, its a hard fought series and learning experience.
If we win, its massive gravy.
Almost every scenario you can spin good for us. And short of them winning the cup, every scenario is pretty much bad for the rangers.
They just blew their futures load on near retirement/decline Kane and sometimes good Vlad, also aged.
They have to win now, period. There is no future for them.

We can lay back and chill. I'm fairly confident we won't get swept. I'll take the short term pain to watch them slow crash and slow burn.

Honestly, same lol. Since it’s the first time in a while we’re discussed in the playoffs, I thought I’d chime in. But yeah, at this point it’s gravy for me so I’m good.

Honestly, I really hope we pass Carolina. Not because I am worried about the Rangers. I actually think we match up pretty well against them. But because I hate to suck all the emotion out of the team in round 1.

See 2012 Flyers.

This is kind of dumb...6 years ago was the 2018 team... objectively the best team we've iced in a decade prior to this year....and every piece on the 2018 or 19 team that "didn't belong in the NHL" was a Shero addition.

Such hits as: Micro Mueller, Eddie Lack, Nick Lappin, Dalton Prout, Stefan Nosen, Will Butcher, Ben Lovejoy, John Moore, Ken Appleby....all Shero clunkers
Noesen was a waiver pick-up, and has proven he belongs once again, and Lovejoy did ok, but I'll give you the others. The only one there that cost anything was Mueller though, well Butcher too, in the unloading.

I don't think he ever gets the PP time for that. My hope is like a 60ish pt two way beast
Well he already has 19, in his 2nd season, over 20 games to go. He's what, 21 years old?

I mean it's possible but 70 pts without PP1 time is a tall task
