Oh, do you mean your on your stomach with the laptop in front of you? I thought you meant you were laying in bed or something with the laptop on your stomach. My buddy did that for a few years and now has a neck like 32 years older then he is.


That and the fact that, you know, the unlimited money and no cap ceiling.

Yep. Was just looking at Devils drafts through 1990's and 2000's. Rarely added more than one player per year.

For a good decade+ the Flyers were arguably the best team in the first round.

Lmao, you were looking at the Devils draft record in the 90's and think they rarely added more then a player per year? from 1990 to 1999 they drafted 27 players that played over 300 games (and a handful just under) including 3 guys that are or likely will be in the HoF. In the 2000's when they rarely drafted inside the top 20 and traded away a handful of 1st round picks they still drafted 11 over 300.

What do you think good drafting looks like?

Phantoms followed-up a 12 shot first period with a 3 shot second, and have 2 shots thru first half of the third. I guess they do play the same system as the Flyers. Is it really possible for both the NHL and AHL teams to suck that bad at the same time

[FLYguy3911]

Difference is the AHL team is relatively talented. The coach is just out of his weight class.

After the 1990 (Brodeur) draft, the bulk of the players cited who played more than 300 games were middle of the road types (Scott Parker, Alyn McCauley, etc) who played the bulk of their careers somewhere other than NJ.

For all the home grown picks like Brodeur, Elias, Sykora, Niedermayer etc., a majority of their top players, particularly the forwards, came from either trades or free agent signings.

Lappy loses again. Why does this man have a job?

 

[Jukurit]

Tuomaala scored his first goal in juniors. Up to 1 goal and 1 assist in 7 games. The goal he scored was a nice shot, but he had plenty of time to walk in and pick his spot. Seemed relieved based on his celebration.

Two former Princeton Tigers playing for Penguins - including game's first star!

He knows what management likes.

 

[deadhead]

Phantoms finally outshot someone by a substantial margin and lose 6-3. Go figure.

 

[dats81]

The Phantoms will finish at the bottom of their Division again because they don't know how to score. Who would have thought that with Lappy behind the bench?!

 

[Strawberry Fields]

Luckily for the Phantoms, they are playing another team that can't score to save their lives today

 

[Curufinwe]

Too many injuries and call ups

 

[Strawberry Fields]

Phantoms are 3 for 9 on the penalty kill this weekend

 

[wasup]

Was just watching LV game vs Hershey which we are losing and noticed Matt Strome is playing for Hershey . Also no Brooks or Marody for LV they must be injuried .

 

[deadhead]

Of course, they bring them in for depth and insurance against injuries, and of course they're injured.

 

[Magua]

Another 4-1 loss, outshot by 11, but man did Lappy have the boys working hard and doing the little things.

So glad we wasted time with him in the AHL getting destroyed so we could see Braun and Seeler

 

[Rebels57]

It's impossible to not hate this organization right now. Impossible.

 

[mr4tno]

It's impossible to not hate this organization right now. Impossible.

The AHL is no place to develop. It is 90% no talent lugs (see Seeler, ND, Mac Nothing) trying to get a name by, most likely, cheap shoting someone...

Now that he's working on the little things, like rehabbing his meniscus and ACL, he'll be more trustworthy in the NHL
