2019/20 Roster Thread XXII

[deadhead]

Yes, somehow he got Neuvirth injured (breathed on him?), Lyon injured in August before training camp, Stolarz injured in the AHL.
Unfortunately he couldn't figure out to get Mrazek injured.

 

[Qyburn]

You now what's nuts? None of them worked their goalies like Hakstol did. Remember when I went through several years of starts from every starting goalie and saw how many played stretches like, say, 4 games in 6 nights with a back to back and no holiday/league mandated break?

There were only a handful of goalies who saw that usage over the course of several years. Most of them had breaks. Those who didn't became injured with the lone exception of price. No team was repeating such things annually like Hakstol was.

Hakstol was an outlier in terms of how awful he was at handling goalies.

It's too bad they can't sue him. How great would it be to see Hak's stupid face in the defendant's chair sitting across from an army of hockey goaltenders.

Buddy, there's multiple seasons of this shit. His entire tenure. He took riding the hot hand to untold levels of stupidity, given that none of the hands were ever particularly hot.

Every night in the NHL there is some kid from Frost's draft class helping his team. Kids who don't have the resume Frost has the past two years. Suzuki scores a goal tonight. Cody Glass is racking up points on the third line at wing. Robert Thomas already won a Cup, scoring 33 points for the Blues getting 13 minutes a game. Texier is getting 16 minutes a night.

Neither Bunnaman nor Raffl can handle center. Pitlick sucks too.

Hagg should be the No. 9 defenseman. This is just poor player evaluation at this point.

 

[deadhead]

Berube:
Mason 60 games, 5 back to backs,
48 games, 4 back to backs, the previous two seasons

2015-16: Mason 53, Neuvirth 29
Mason had 5 back to backs (given Neuvirth, you'd have to check if he was injured)
2016-17: Mason 54, Neuvirth, 24, Stolarz 4
Mason had 5 back to backs
2017-18: Elliott 42, Neuvirth 18, Mrazek 15, Lyon 7
Elliott had 4 back to backs
2018-19: Hart 30, Elliott 23, Stolarz 10, Pickard 8, Neuvirth 6, Talbot 3, Lyon 1, McKenna 1
Elliott 0 back to backs, Hart 1 back to back

He was a one of a kind idiot. His coaching incompetence was unparalleled.

 

[Striiker]

And yet, as stupid as Hakstol was, somehow he never managed to f*** up the top PP unit.

 

[Dumpster Flyers]

And yet, as stupid as Hakstol was, somehow he never managed to **** up the top PP unit.

The Flyers PP is 5th in the league

imagine how Morin must feel..

 

[landsbergfan]

So Meltzer speculates "on his own" that he thinks a move for 4th line center (Rubstov/Vorobyev) will be happening soon. Will be interesting to see how quickly it happens.

 

[Curufinwe]

 

[Audible Velvet]

If he doesn't come through as Uncle Flow, I propose we go with Uncle Fester. Close to his name anyway.

It's happening folks... NoPa back soon!

I can't prove it but I need to think positive!

 

[flyersfan187]

I'd like to see Ruby up for the 4th line center spot.

NoPa for 3c and Laughton to 4C!

We deserve good things!

JVR/Patrick/Farabee
Laughton/Ruby/Raffl

That would be a nice bottom six right now.

Right now? Maybe yes, maybe no.
Three months from now it would be closer to a sure thing.

JVR/Patrick/Farabee
Laughton/Ruby/Raffl

I don't think AV will go full Laughton to 4LW before he sends him to 4C first. But if Twar gets send down I could see it.

 

[Beef Invictus]

One thing that is neat about AV is that he's giving Hagg far better usage instead of exposing him out of a delusional belief that he's good at defending. That's a flexibility that has lacked.

Playing him at all dispels the "far better usage" notion.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

The sniper the Flyers need but don’t deserve.

I mean that would be ideal usage, this is at least far better.

[FlyerNutter]

There is potential for so many decent combinations even with Patrick hurt. Combinations that no reasonable hockey mind could concretely say are worse than what the Flyers are currently choosing to run with.

Rubs, Vorobyev and Farabee are more than solid options.

Cowardly decision to run with the “veterans”. As usual.
