GDT: #75: Islanders at FLYERS, Saturday, March 23, 2019, 1:00 p.m. ET

[Ruck Over]

If I were Morin, I ask for a trade low-key style in the off-season. Fletcher doesn't owe him anything, and Morin signed with Hextall. Allow his agent to ask around, and get a chance somewhere else. It's hella lame that the Flyers have only played him 3 games to date.

 

[deadhead]

And I'd tell him "no."
Flyers paid him about $900K this year to rehab, even if they decide to move him, they'll want to get him on the ice to showcase him first.

We really don't know how game ready he is, maybe Gordon is an idiot, maybe he's not showing a lot of lateral agility in practice.

Although I'd prefer Keefe, I'm looking forward to them hiring Q and within three months, watch the numerous "why the F is he playing so and so over so and so" threads pop up like mushrooms.

Just look at Trotz's personnel decisions on the Islanders, he'd be reamed a new one here as soon as the team lost 3 in a row.
"I can't believe he wanted to sign Filppula and play him 14 minutes a night . . ."

Prove that Trotz wanted Flip.

Trotz is far and away a superior coach, but you have to always tear him down because it devours you to watch him get the most out of a weak roster while Hakstol always got the least out of his.

Bill Matz had a good comment on Hagg. He's like, "He leads the league in hits and I've never seen one of them."

Remarkably low-impact, low-positives player.

lol you never notice them because they come after the play has moved on.

Tough spot for Morin, he says he's going all out in practice and the other players are not too appreciative of that. But he has to do what he can.

 

[TheKingPin]

I wonder if there will be a time when we have nothing to complain about. Is that what happens when you win a cup?

You (and I) have no idea how many wrong ways there are to win a cup
Someone will always complain

 

[BernieParent]

Why can’t HAag get the flu, just once

Turd immunity.

 

[Striiker]

lol you never notice them because they come after the play has moved on.

That and also because they’re weak hits 99% of the time.

f***in’ Ghost is a harder hitter. Hagg just goes for quantity.

 

[BigToe]

Didn’t even know we played today. Might watch this one for some laughs.

Source?

Source?

I think they mentioned it during the flyers last broadcast

I’m pretty sure Hagg is just a younger Kevin Bacon. The resemblance is uncanny.

His new nickname is Wren

This game isn’t even showing on any of my CI channels ???

Maybe nhl has given up as well

 

[Bones45]

How are you guys playing lately?

 

[Fire Tortorella]

How are you guys playing lately?

Awesome.

Wish Hagg would learn to play hockey instead of f***ing bumper cars.

 

[Adam Warlock]

Everything Hagg lovers claim him to be, Morin actually is but better.

Id dress 7 D today with Morin. Need him in the line up for this game.

 

[deadhead]

I don't think there are any Hagg lovers outside the announcers, but who knows what Morin actually is?

 

[CapnZin]

Tough spot for Morin, he says he's going all out in practice and the other players are not too appreciative of that. But he has to do what he can.

What does that mean? Like he’s being too physical in practice or he’s trying to show them up? Did you read that from an article or did a beater tweet that out?

 

[Bones45]

Awesome.

Damn. we're screwed.

 

[dragonoffrost]

Any word on Boychuk?

 

[Striiker]

Wish Hagg would learn to play hockey instead of f***ing bumper cars.

Too late for that. He has the IQ of Hakstol, which is why they got along so great and why neither belong in the NHL.

Best case scenario is Fletcher trades him for a pick and saves us from watching his garbage ass.

He might be justified if he didn't miss most of the season to injury. Unfortunate but what little leverage he would have disappears over this point. I want to see him play, too.

How are you guys playing lately?

Pretty well but the entire team has the flu. Hard to really say bc we have had the flu and played very hard teams while going around .500 since we last played.
