Thirty goals is better than forty points, no?

 

[Jtown]

Clear ability to be measured, eh? Are we talking fastest with or without the puck? First step or at top speed? Surely acceleration comes into play? Straightaway or lateral? Does edge work factor into this? Perhaps there's a site I'm unaware of that has come up with some advanced metric that takes all of these factors into account and ranks guys by overall skating ability. Could you point me to that site? I'd be really interested in seeing how it shakes out when compared to other metrics.

And really, you can't see hockey IQ? You can't see that Claude Giroux is processing the game faster than Jordan Weal? You don't think playmaking ability via assists is representative of a player's hockey IQ? This explains your inability to appreciate Sean Couturier all of these years. You're blind to hockey IQ.

all of those things can be measured. What can't be measured is processing the game.

Lift the puck you f***ing scrub

Coots has put together 2 fantastic years after being just OK.

[LegionOfDoom91]

The pigeon takes the assist from Ghost

Big boy needs to eat.

 

[AdamParrot]

Sanheim should hard training in summer. He has everything but sometimes he lost speed and agility due to his bad stamina.

 

[Hextallent63]

Is Coots becoming the Flyers most important player?

Almost

 

[Outlaw Samurai]

I MISSED THE DAMN GOAL

You're the anti-me. I've watched for 30 seconds and they score

 

[Magua]

It’s always Hagg when I see a defenseman jumping up for a glorious chance. I swear to god.

 

[Tripod]

Nice shot Hagg. No honestly, it was

 

[bennysflyers16]

HAAG wrecks more pressure

 

[PHILOUDELPHIA]

Couturier has to be the smartest player the Flyers have he's not the fastest ain't got a lot of good moves, but he's just a beast. Sign him forever too

the problem is the usual bums on the team don't speak coots language

they never saw the wizard to get a brain, because they don't know what color the yellow brick road looks like

 

[Rm1970]

Is linblom playing this period or is he back playing fortnite?

 

[dragonoffrost]

It’s always Hagg when I see a defenseman jumping up for a glorious chance. I swear to god.

At least he shot

 

[wankstifier]

Jesus f***, get that Swedish hillbilly off the ice

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

 

[Jtown]

It’s always Hagg when I see a defenseman jumping up for a glorious chance. I swear to god.

high hockey iq, just no skill to show it off.

 

[prototypical4thliner]

You're the anti-me. I've watched for 30 seconds and they score

Keep on keepin on

 

[PHILOUDELPHIA]

darn we mess up a 3 on 2 rush

 

[Striiker]

easily one of the worst efforts of the year

I swear people say this every game

 

[Beef Invictus]

What was any of that from Jake

 

[mja]

all of those things can be measured. What can't be measured is processing the game.

Nope, definitely aren't any stats out there that attempt to measure hockey IQ. None whatsoever. Btw's, I'm really waiting on that skating stat that measures the top skaters in the league. Please link me to that site. I'm just absolutely dying to get a look at all of that wonderfully measurable data.

 

[bennysflyers16]

10 and 44 may hit 30 mins tonight.

 

[Hextallent63]

Big boy needs to eat.

doesn't even look like a pigeon anymore every time I look at that picture all I see is Jvr

Again, a “like x 1000” function is sorely needed.
