GDT: #31: FLYERS at Canucks, Saturday, Dec. 15, 2018, 10:00 pm ET

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Oh Farmer you silly *****

 

[MayonnaiseOreo]

Canucks about to get another kill shot.

Well, the coach we hired after that was pretty awesome so let's hope it happens again.

 

[Tripod]

Yes, it involves aliens, the Illuminati, lion piss, Brett Hextall, and a wakeboard. If you have 4 days, we can tell you the tale.

And snot.

 

[AndHeMissedTheNet]

If we have to call up Hart, i want the next coach to run an uber-defensive, neutral zone trap scheme. Or a 1-3-1. Or f***ing anything that actually attempts to make things somewhat easier for Hart.

 

[Iggys Dome]

His buddy Ron

Fletcher's gotta take action right?

 

[CSKA1974]

Canucks about to get another kill shot.

[Deadpool8812]

[CutOnDime97]

Fletcher's gotta take action right?

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Right. Also, sweet avatar you have there

 

[Jray42]

If Hak gets fired, I'm gonna eat an Oreo w/ Mayonnaise on it just for you

That’s diabolical

 

[Asnito]

Absolutely not, bro - there is nothing to see here whatsoever. Just find a tweet with Laughton's goal, which was nice. I'll find it for you and edit this post.

EDIT:

Appreciate the heads up

 

[YamCork]

Can we decline the PP?

 

[Here4ThaLids]

Good games for Giroux, Raffl, Voracek, really strong on their skates, up on their toes, just not cashing in. Konecny and Couts finally showing a little life late. Simmonds has been atrocious.

Edit: Laughts.

 

[BigToe]

If Hak gets fired, I'm gonna eat an Oreo w/ Mayonnaise on it just for you

Ew

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Anyone have theories as to why Hakstol hasn't been fired yet? The team has so clearly tuned him out I can't see why he wasn't fired last season at least.

As I said the day of Fletcher's hiring, he will not want to give the impression that he is acting under the thumbprint of others or too quickly. A manager wants to make moves judging from his own experiences and not what transpired earlier or through the opinions of others. Promoting an assistant is an option but the supporting coaching staff has its own flaws based on results. An outsider given the job is unlikely early in the tenure of a newly hired GM. The coach is an issue but a GM is going to look at all components over a short period of time rather than make what could be hasty in his eyes.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

The end of the Dave Hakstol era is going about as expected, boring as f***.

 

[CSKA1974]

Fletcher's gotta take action right?

Yep. He will resign

 

[Frickley]

It's funny, a real time animation of the Titanic going down just popped into my recommendations on youtube...

 

[Jray42]

Has that Santa Sacks virtual ad always been there?

 

[Alex K]

The Titanic went down way faster than the Flyers are doing it.

 

[Sombastate]

You guys are gonna be awfully disappointed when you wake up tomorrow and the headline is that Hakstol got an extension and a promotion to VP

 

[trostol]

hey Chuck!!!!

 

[flyers0909]

10 minutes boys!

 

[Hakroach]

JVR and Simmonds look so useless on the PP...
