GM Chuck Fletcher

[Ghosts Beer]

im upset about hart , because it seems like we keep compounding our mistakes as an organization. THis is a kid you should just leave in the minors all year.

I don’t see the harm in finding out if he can help them now. They need a goalie. He’s considered one of the best young ones in the world. If he’s capable, they can focus their resources on other positions; if not, they can send him back down.

So many experts in here. Glad I read these boards. If you're freaking out over hart well get over it. Lyon is not gonna save our season. Maybe Hart sparks this team and we go on a run....after Hak is fired. Why not give one of the most decorated goaltending prospects of all time a shot. It's not gonna ruin him. Settle down

Not every prospect needs years in the AHL. This is the Hextall disease. 5 years of saying it engrained in people's heads

Its based on his limited showing in the AHL so far actually...

I get that but what other option is there. Grab another Pickard type and continue the graveyard or test out our bona-fide prospect.

 

[BritainStix]

Yeah... the first option.

 

[WheresMySnare]

I respect your opinion but I'm with the people who think if hart is that fragile and will be "ruined" by playing then he wasn't gonna work out anyway. Nothing about his history suggests he's fragile. Let him. Figure it out in the big show.

Goalies do.

Goalies typically don't become regular starters until 23-24

nothing to do with Ron Hextall.
He didn't create that reality

 

[magnumpi]

Considering Detroit wants a 1st for Jimmy Howard, I’m okay with Hart playing a few games and if it’s clear he’s not ready, send him down immediately. This is more out of necessity than anything.

Hextall once brought Ghost upout of necessity before he was assumed to be ready if anyone can recall

Scott and Holmgren would gladly trade a top 10 pick for Howard, no doubt in my mind

Goalies typically do. They don't always. Not every player follows the same path.

Holmgren made some mistakes but no he would not trade a 1st for a goalie. When did he ever do that?

He's just lashing out at the organization lol

he traded a first for Eminger

But these are desperate times for Flyers management.
they could be pushed into doing something horrible

So everyone else's opinion makes them an expert. But you knowing for sure that it's not going to ruin him isn't an expert opinion? Gotcha. But sure, Hart has definitely been tearing up the AHL. Just more throwing crap at the wall hoping it sticks. This franchise is a joke. No patience what so ever.

 

[Redpath]

This isn't a matter of rushing Hart. We have three goalies unavailable right now. Pickings are slim.

A game in the NHL isn't going to ruin his development. Hextall's prospect techniques were not gospel.

My main message there was let's all relax and see and not get emotional. Sorry, I don't know if it will ruin him but we have no choice. Maybe he sparks them.

Also, how is calling up hart throwing crap at the wall? Throwing crap at the wall would be adding some tweener like Pickard. Hart could stick and be our goalie for the next 8-10 years. We don't know

Good start to his tenure

Again, Holmgren made some mistakes, but he would never trade a 1st for a goalie. Especially like Jimmy Howard.

No, he would just trade away a future Vezina candidate in his early years to give Bryzgalov an 80 year, 8 billion dollar contract.

I think I’ll trade away the 1st most years given that choice.

 

[Beef Invictus]

Took way too long.


Fire Fletcher.

 

[macleish1974]

Hart is not fragile. He has a stone cold killer attitude. He just learns and learns. He learned in the AHL and he will learn in the NHL.
