More drivel out of him. He’s as hard to listen to as his boy Hak is.

To be fair to Manning, the Blackhawk defense sucks.
Keith and Jokiharju are the only decent ones, Seabrook has really slipped and Davidson might be worse than Manning.
Hagg and Folin might have a shot at being their 2nd pair.

Not sure anyone on this team plays defense anymore.

Davidson so far this year is much better than Manning. My god Manning just sucks.

 

[kudymen]

Remembering numerous authority-appealish "Yeah well some GM in the league paid for him and he paid $2.25M per for Manning - so you guys are wrong" posts. Beautiful

 

[kudymen]

Water is in fact wet.
Death, taxes and Neuvy getting hurt

But I didnt know the water was wet this much

The weird thing is that Hagg is on our first pair and Folin has only played on the “third line” once which was last game

Boxcar65 on the Chi board defending Manning. Gotta love his gumption

I hope Simmonds punches Manning in the face today

Manning has gotten off to a somewhat slow start, but I think he will come around under the new coach. I’d give him a C grade so far, but he will get better.

I’m going to be in the mountains of Virginia today picking apples with my grandson, so unfortunately I will miss the game. I hope all of my old friends on the board will at least pull for the Dog to score one and to put the hammer fists to some unfortunate Flyer.

I’d love to see a Flyer fight him and knock him on his ass for all the pain we went through watching him.

Because he sure as hell isn’t winning any fight.

Variety on the 2nd line, Hak blender at it again

Manning has gotten off to a somewhat slow start... I’d give him a C grade so far...

Boxy, you really know how to grade on the curve.

I could have used you in a few college classes.

I'm going to be in the mountains of Virginia today picking apples with my grandson, so unfortunately I will miss the game. I hope all of my old friends on the board will at least pull for the Dog to score one and to put the hammer fists to some unfortunate Flyer.

Have a great day!

On the train going to the game.
I'll propose to Taryn when I get there.
My bachelor party will be on the day Hak gets fired which will be at least two years from now so Ill have more than enough time to plan that and the wedding.

My son Markelle Fultz will be the ringbearer. I've got it all planned out.

Are we invited to the wedding?

 

[BillDineen]

Hextall said the PK is visually better despite the numbers? Uh, no.

 

[Stizzle]

Hextall will be on the Fanatic pregame at noon (15 minutes) fyi

From what I caught listening...

Visually our PK, at times, has looked better but the numbers don't reflect that. Would have liked to aquire a veteran PK'er but it didn't happen.

Hak and him talk everyday about PK, PP, players, etc. The young players are making strides that's part of his evaluation. That being said we all need to be better.

Vorobyev, Rubtsov, Friedman, Kase, and Myers were really good last night. Also it was the best game he's seen this year from Myers.

Hak wants to find NAK more minutes, but he's not concerned that he hasn't played more. He's created energy.

Carter Hart has stayed on his feet more, gotten more patient. He's coming along well.

Sanheim, Laughts, Weise have played well.

We have good young players coming so have to be careful at trade deadline. Don't want to box out kids. Hesitant to aquire a rental. Would go after a difference maker.

 

[kudymen]

Even if it was visually better, what's the point of visual improvement if you are still getting kicked in the nuts...?

 

[Flyerfan4life]

Hextall said the PK is visually better despite the numbers? Uh, no.

said the same thing last year at seasons end. as a reason why he kept Lappy..

Hexy has ZERO ability to judge his hires... talk about wearing orange tinted glass'...

grrrr....

 

[Flyerfan4life]

cuz u look good while getting jimmied is important... hahaaa

 

[CapnZin]

This somewhat sounds like a self-explanatory problem. He’s concerned that NAK isn’t playing enough, but wants to give him more minutes.

 

[bennysflyers16]

Hextall said the PK is visually better despite the numbers? Uh, no.

Hexy is trash, there is no defending him. Good at drafting, that’s it.

 

[Magua]

Manning is going to score today. Because all former Flyers score against us.

Yes, but it will be an own goal redirection.

And then proclaim he did it on purpose

Davidson's always been serviceable. For the life of me, I don't understand why he's bounced around so much.
