Remember when G had his 102 point seasin after he was put with Coots?

Be yeah nah Coots needs G to carry him. Coots has zero effect on the players around him.

Just proves the Coots is a career 3rd line center haters never left theyve just been hiding under his Selke.

Gotta be honest. Thought the MacEwen signing would have brought more thunder to this thread.

If he thinks people will watch just because of fights in 2022...

If a team sucks and doesn't get wins, why watch? To think that fighting is more important than winning...
I think the bigger problem is that he isn't wrong. There is a reason he has a following

Doesn't mean he speaks for most fans or why most people watch hockey.

Hell, Avs won the cup and they only really had one goon that fought throughout the year (didn't play every game either) and that was MacDermid. He had only 6 fights and played 7.5 minutes on average per game. And yet they are some of the most exciting hockey people has ever seen, especially in a long while. But you know, people watch for fights and having tough, hitting lines... oh wait...

I'm saying he speaks for most Flyers fans, because most of them are dumb

Lots of empty seats last season even with MacEwen providing NRG every night.

Fights will entertain the die hards who still go to the games even when the team sucks, but that's all.

And that's kind of it. If there are so many empty seats and it continues throughout the season, you have to think Dave Scott will start realizing the money loss from previous years and make changes to get butts back in seats. With MacEwen doing his fights, it didn't bring in anyone new and didn't bring more people back. I expect less people this year overall than last year, and consistently fewer people overall from game to game.
