Roster Moves: Roster Thread Talk 2021: it never ends

They look great playing at lower levels, not so hot when the Flyers coaches get their hands on them.

Who are you talking about?

 

[GapToothedWonder]

Who are you talking about?

All of them. Every last one of 'em.

 

[flyerslducks]

So if Thompson is an every game player like many expect him to be will you admit it was a bad signing?

Thompson playing 30% of the season makes it a bad signing let alone 50 or 100% of the season

If Thompson plays 50 percent of the season does it make frost a bad pick? Rubstov? Lacinski? The guys a scrub but if he's playing above you your probably a bust.

Morin another knee injury. That poor sob.

This is only true if the Flyers are run on merit instead of bias. They are not run on merit. That's why Thompson played over Frost originally, despite Frost being better.

It's also only true if the Flyers are good at evaluating talent. They have firmly proven to be terrible at that.

Man big Sam’s knees just won’t hold up.

Some of the most asinine comments this summer man lol

Some ex:
-couts shouldn’t be on the pk ——-WTF
-frost is a bust because Thompson is here
-hart is overrated
-Hayes should be captain next smfh
-risto is going to be good (ok I had to throw that one in there lmao)

Wow poor guy. Guess we have an open spot for the 7th d now

I was having some fun with that one so I'm part of the problem

The 7th D goes by KY

 

[dats81]

Counting the hours until they announce the N. Prosser back from retirement signing

Clendening probably the most realistic option for the press box as of now.

 

[BritainStix]

And thats the end of big Sams career. What a f***ing shitter man. Love that kid.

My God, man. Do you ever write anything positive? Every single post is negativity, all day, every day. It’s exhausting to read.

 

[Starat327]

Irony.

 

[flyersnorth]

I really really hope Allison's injury isn't serious.

 

[Ghosts Beer]

I really really hope Allison's injury isn't serious.

It didn’t look good. He unfortunately seems like one of those guys who always is injured. Shame. I like him.

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

I really really hope Allison's injury isn't serious.

I really hope this just means they just don't know what the injury is. Hopefully it's nothing too serious as the kid definitely deserves to be on the main roster.

 

[BiggE]

Poor Sammy, I think that’s it for him. Getting pretty concerned about Allison too. He seems to get an LBI every season.

 

[flyersnorth]

Yes, I certainly don't like a coach using "months" as a hypothetical timeline.

I guess the only positive spin is that opening night is 3.5 weeks away, so maybe that's enough time to recover.

 

[deadhead]

It's not a big deal if Allison is out until January (including a one month LHV stint), it is if it's an ACL or another injury that could cost him a year and some burst.

For one thing, Foerster is looking more and more like a kid who could play in the NHL right now if needed, like TK at 19. Foerster is more well rounded than TK at that age, though of course he can't skate like TK. So while he'll start at LHV, he's a real call up possibility.

I wanted to see more from Frost against rookies, while he looked fine, he's never looked dominating against even lower competition, the way someone like Barzal does in the NHL. We'll see if he can take it up a notch in TC, he was shaking off the rust.

J Cates needs a year in the AHL, he's not skilled enough for the NHL. Avon is fast, but no hands. McClennon looked meh to me.
Sandin will get his shot in TC. So will Wylie, who looked better than Hogberg to me. Millman has potential, but needs time.

G - Couts - TK
JVR - Hayes - Atkinson
Farabee - Frost - Lindblom
Brassard - Laughton - Laczynski/NAK
Thompson

Yes. I do. I praise good moves, like the Ellis trade

It's not my fault nearly everything they do is bad.

Thompson

Unless they are only carrying 6 D, they don’t have enough cap space to carry 14F
