Post-Game Talk: #70| FLYERS 2 at Devils 6 | Thurs., March 16, 2017 | Injury update: Mason (post #1)

Weise is definitely a better value pick for Vegas if they think he'll get back to being a 20+ point player. When he was signed I only expected him to be here for a year because of the ED.

In the expansion draft, they have to take a player from each team right?

 

[Hiesenberg]

Yes, but then there are these weird little rules like if Las Vegas signs somebody like MDZ, that actually counts as our player taken.

So while we are all hung up on who's protected and not, LV might sign Weal and that's their player from our organization.

 

[Flyotes]

sports arent for me

I haven't watched the last three games. That's unheard of for me. Didn't even record them.

 

[deadhead]

As far as "giving up," they were flat (think they got too up for Pittsburgh, and had trouble getting up for the Devils the next night) until they were down 3-1, turned on the jets after it was 3-2, were dominating the game and only deflated after the 4th goal (bad pinch by Schultz, bad defense by Ghost) and Mason leaving the game.

 

[Curufinwe]

Yeah, the defense on the 4th goal was not good. Schultz was channeling Manning with that pinch.

Or Mason.

 

[Danko]

This team is a joke and this franchise has become one to. It's killing my will to watch these ****** teams.

I understand it's a rebuild and hexy has been preaching patience, but it's just not even worth watching anymore.

Or Mason.

Yup. I try to avoid that thought. lol I keep hoping he'll be around for another 2-3 years

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

Any word on the extent of Mason's injury?

They've been this bad before, it's just that y'all got spoiled by the Flyers having a lot of money in pre-cap days, so they could buy their way out of deep holes.

This is the reality of a salary cap, no easy fixes.

Phlllies dealing with the same problem, big salaries, no farm system, they should have started the rebuild in 2013, not 2015. But the arrow is pointing up and they should be competitive in 2018.

Maybe Hextall should have blown it up with some mega-trades, but I'm not sure fans would have been any happier. As bad as this year has been, this is the bottom, the kids start arriving in numbers next year. From now on, there should be 3-4 new players every season.

If the official report is that Mason's injury was cramping, chalk it up as yet another questionable incident regarding Mason and his personality.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

He shouldn't be out long, if at all. But you have to remember that our coach could play Neuvy every game for the rest of the season, just because.

Exactly. Entertainment is what we watch for first and next to afew guys like Provy, Gudas there is nothing fun to watch.

Thanks!

 

[Curufinwe]

Hak hates Mason. That's why Mason has 99 starts with a .912 SV% under him and Neuvirth has 51 starts at .910.

I can't tell if you're serious...

 

[Angry Hockey Dad]

Rebuild the rebuild

You really are a bit of a joke with comments like this.

Except we scored two beauty of a goals, but whatever girds your loins.

Did we? Hard to notice when your getting 6 scored on you and getting outplayed by an ahl caliber devils team that has lost 10 straight games

 

[hatcher]

Pat Maroon with 2 goals and a fight with Chara and with Mcquaid. Setting the tone is what that is called.

 

[Beef Invictus]

The grass is greener. If he wore a Flyers jersey you'd find ample reason to hate him. Exhibit A: You consider Wayne Simmonds to be trash.

 

[deadhead]

Maroon forced his way out of the organization with his behavior, can't even blame that on Holmgren.

Hopefully Allison will turn out to be a more talented, and more stable version of Maroon.

 

[Hiesenberg]

So Maroon finally had 1 good year at age 28 and I think he's playing with McDavid.

Do we not see the correlation? lol

If he's not playing with McDavid, he has to be playing with Draisitl.

Please. What took in place in Adirondack with Maroon falls 100% on Greg Gilbert. Gilbert called out Jon Kalinski, Pat Maroon and Stefan Legein after a game. Gilbert proceeded to rip and tear on the kids and then threatened Maroon and challenged him to a fist fight. Maroon didn't fight, but did the right thing by walking out of the locker room. Yet, it was Maroon that was sent home and Gilbert coached another few months until he was fired. Why? Simple - John Paddock saved Greg Gilbert because Paddock was the guy who recommended Gilbert get the job in Adirondack. That's what happened.
