Randomly ended up on Garrett Klotz's ECHL team's EP page the other day. He's still kicking around.

Used a 3rd rounder on this guy. Hilarious.

I honestly couldn’t imagine developing CTE all those years for ECHL or worse paychecks.

Now there's a name I've not heard in a long time. A long time.

I was at the game when he had a seizure after having a fight when he was on the phantoms. It was one of those deals where if ya were at the flyers game, your ticket would get you into a phantoms game afterwards at the spectrum. That name just brought up a strange memory. What a horrible thing to see at a game.

 

[FLYguy3911]

Don’t let Adam Ginning get hot.

 

[deadhead]

Zamula, 0 shots, 0 points, -3
Ginning, 1 shot, 3 assists, +2.

wasn't he the owner, player, coach of thr washington generals.

 

[blackjackmulligan]

Zamula, 0 shots, 0 points, -3
Ginning, 1 shot, 3 assists, +2.

Would be very entertaining If Ginning turns out to be a bottom pair NHL dman.

Any idea what kind of role he is playing on the Phantoms? Getting quality minutes top 4 minutes? Playing the PK?

 

[Curufinwe]

Zamula, 0 shots, 0 points, -3
Ginning, 1 shot, 3 assists, +2.

You went from "Zamula is more ready for the NHL than York", to "Zamula is worse than Ginning in the AHL" in record time.

I've seen Luke Schenn win two Stanley Cups. I wouldn't rule out Ginning carving out a nice carrer for himself.
The raw skillset has always been there but he really needs learn how to avoid glaring mistakes and how to manage a whole game. Things Risto is still struggling with 10 years into his pro career.

 

[deadhead]

Zamula has regressed as the season has gone along.
Injury?
Sulking about being sent back?

York on the other hand took his demotion to heart and raised his game.

Ginning has played surprisingly well.
Wonder if @Appleyard has caught any of his LHV games and can give us a read on whether he's improved or it's just "puck luck".

 

[Beef Invictus]

Sounds like bad development.

 

[Magua]

Ginning has a raw skill set?

 

[Beef Invictus]

More specifically, York hasn't raised his game. This is who he is. He was showing these skills last season, but he had hesitancy because that's what the punitive processes ruling this shit team work. This is who he has been.

If Zamula was even better than him and now is worse because of how he has been handled, then the team has f***ed something up.

Holmgren was convinced he could turn him into a power forward. He likely could of got him as a post draft FA

at least Mathers was a 7th rd pick. What as waste of a 3rd.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

 

[PDX Flyer]

Now there's a name I've not heard in a long time. A long time.

Is he the guy we took when Bjorkstrand was still on the board? I’m not a draft guy but knew immediately it was a mistake

 

[Magua]

That was Goulbourne. Buchnevich, Guentzel, Duclair, Bjorkstrand -- no one special went immediately after. The Flyers actually ranked Bjorkstrand higher and still blew up their board for Goulbourne, if you want to talk sheer competency.

To be fair, Minnesota took Kurtis Gabriel before Bjorkstand too. Fletcher and Flahr love their high upside picks.

He showed them last season, but not in TC or initially in LHV.
It took him a couple months to get back on track.

Was also under a diff coaching staff. Sending York down did no harm. He looks more poised. More confident. Looks like a better player.

 

[mr4tno]

Damn. His only value is his contract slot

He was "on track" immediately. Practice and glorified scrimmages are garbage for evaluation. This gets proven annually.

 

[CutOnDime97]

Tuomaala is up with Jukurit in Liiga now. Not playing much.
