Regardless of Ghost's health status, Hagg sticking up for G bought him undefined capital that probably gives him extra time in the lineup.
NAK has points in 8 of his last 10 games.
Not that it matters, as someone has been saying that any upgrade in 4th liners is minimal at best and pretty much irrelevant for the past several years.
Those points don't matter because 30 teams could have claimed him and didn't.
Brandon Manning taught him well.Regardless of Ghost's health status, Hagg sticking up for G bought him undefined capital that probably gives him extra time in the lineup.

Nice to see the flyers being not only relevant again, but at the top of the division and right up there in the standings. I've got ur team as my dark horse this year. I'll admit, I didn't put much stock in the flyers a majority of the year. Quietly you've been climbing the standings, catching teams with thier pants down and passing ur rival penguins. Hope it's flyers vs pens in the east final. Obviously can't pick flyers over pens, but it's still nice to see caps not on top for once haha
"The Flyers did not commit a penalty in the game for just the seventh time in franchise history."
Evgeni Farabee needs to start burying those numerous chances he gets.
Sanheim and Myers are going to be fun to watch going forward. Braun just solidly going about his business.

wasnt Appleyard (others as well not singling him out mind you) against this trade and said gudas was a better player?Appears Mr. Gudas will be a healthy scratch tonight again tonight for the Caps. And to think some people thought that Niskanen was equal to Gudas. That trade is huge reason that the Flyers are where they are at today in the standing. Even with retaining salary. Fletch won this one.
The team's riding a winning streak, playing some of the best hockey in a decade, tied for the 1st in Metro, but people are whining about Hägg being in the lineup over Ghost.

I do, as well as I want the old Ghost back but if something isn't broken, you don't fix it.Do you want the team to continue winning?
If yes, then you should want the team to fix problems that hurt their chances.
At the time of the trade calling them similar quality players wasn't a stretch by any means. Niskanen rebounded, Gudas... not so much. Great move by Fletch.

It is broken. That's why it should be fixed.I do, as well as I want the old Ghost back but if something isn't broken, you don't fix it.
The winning streak didn't prevent the team from making deadline acquisitions and inserting them into the lineup immediately, so I am not sure what you're trying to say here.Winning 8 games in a row and being tied for first in the Metro for the 1st time since 2010-11 has nothing to do with it. Exactly......

The simplest explanation is that they're dumb enough to think Hagg is playing well.The simplest explanation is that there's something about Ghost's game that the coaching staff is not sold on, because if he truly was a better player and better fit in their eyes, he would be in the lineup. Period.
AV is not afraid to make changes. This is one he is choosing not to make. I believe it says more about their view of Ghost than their view of Hagg.
