@Hollywood Cannon we overrate prospects

Me: *Wants to encourage discussions with the average fan so they see what's really going on*

*Reads Average Joe tweet*

I need to stop hoping that the average joe in this town will understand anything about sports than what's regurgitated on 94WIP, 97.5 or on Twitterdelphia.

This is actually a good post:

This is actually a good post:

A lot of the usual suspects in there.

A lot of the usual suspects in there.

Chuck Fletcher's burner must be in there too. Guy wanted Laine so bad.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

This guy got redpilled that Gauthier’s perceived high end upside is more hope & prayers at this point than backed by the data.

I think Torts would murder Laine if he came here.

I think Torts would murder Laine if he came here.

He did when they were both in Lumbus.

Gauthier is going to drive me insane if I ever choose to watch this shit team again.

Both because of his “pure sniper” playstyle and the way dumbass fans will worship him because of that exact flaw.

Also, future 1C.

Sakic was a great, great player. Loved watching him and those Avs teams of the 90s and early 2000s.

all this derek chick is going is finding something to bitch about that no one else is to get traffic. lets trash and shit talk a 19 year old, good direction there. everyone is due their opinion but this is dumb.

 

[Striiker]

The obsession and constant overrating of low IQ guys who are primarily (and often exclusively) shooters is one of the more pathetic habits of hockey fans.

The fact that the team views him as a franchise player is a perfect example of why they're never going to build a contender without a literal miracle that's completely out of their hands.

Bill is trying to argue that the issue with the PP is lack of a net front presence and bumper player? The two most replaceable (and chiefly off puck) spots on a PP?

Half the team could play the bumper and/or net front adequately. Fortunately, Bonk is on the way for the bumper role!

Charlie is amazingly dismissive. Especially when people bring up very specific and valid points re: Gauthier.

 

[GKJ]

Some of the skepticism could have to do with people talking about the skating and athletic profile of Eric Lindros such as the person he’s quoting. That’s going to get people talking whether you want them to or not. And people did, now we have people who think he is Lindros.

 

[Chinatown88]

I have a hunch some of the jounralist skepticism you see here is fueld by the "Flyers beat writers are garbage" stance.

If both Meltzer & O'Connor become their former selves, there's far less of a need for other top beat reporters. It's v tough to argue. It's v tough to argue against The Hivemind™ rn, so the beat writers' flaws get highlighted.
