Ok, they’re entertaining again. The whole team is going full Magic.

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Will just give Chuck more leeway to use injuries as an excuse for the Phillies sucking and for him to keep his job.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Love this team. Love them.

 

[Beef Invictus]

Sure, sure

 

[wankstifier]

What are they doing during these workouts?

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

The injury sounds "sever" enough... what's getting amputated?

 

[Curufinwe]

I think he just doesn’t want to play for this team.

[Diaper Mask Bandits]

LOL

so much for Chuck's pick here

Flyers and Brink's training regimen..

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

I’d imagine at worst he was the top forward call-up option. So this is just another sign of the obvious for this organization that a reset for next year should be in order at a minimum.

He likely bumped it on the corner of the dresser and it's a bruise, but once our docs got involved, they wanna slice him open.

I'm an optimist, so I see this as 82 games of Owen Tippett in the top 9. On the negative side, maybe Konecny doesn't get traded.

Just think of the veterany vet they are going to bring in and use this injury as well as Allison and Tanner as the reason why.

Somewhere Jay Beagle just got a call from his agent and they are giddy.

This may be partially true but the NHL doesn't allow players to train with their team during the offseason because they'd rather save money than protect the health and wellbeing of their players.

Expected order of events:

1. Today.
2. The other hip falls off on a trip to the mailbox.
3. They replace it with a ball bearing and send him out in Game 71 in a desperate push for the 7 seed.
4. The original hip is re-injured in the blast created when Ryan Ellis tries to skate again.
5. They trade him when he's not ready to open 22-23 because they need an extra 75k in cap space.

I'm one malt vinegar cocktail away from being Beef. This isn't so bad, really.

Desperate push for the 7th seed ala Lappy and the Phantoms pushing for the playoffs as they sat as the worst team in the conference?

It's our choice to make these good or bad memories. I like your selection.

 

[Maurice of Orange]

The Flyers can’t have nothing nice.

 

[BritainStix]

Pretty sure the offseason training plans are scheduled by Mccrossin.

 

[BrindamoursNose]

I just assume the whole training regiment is a series of hip thrusts a la Ace Ventura

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Brink may be their highest upside guy in general let alone of the ones close to playing in the NHL (Foerster is the second highest but probably not really in the cards for this year). Every team needs ELC contributors but especially a team like the Flyers that have such cap/talent issues.

So for me that is an important guy even if he isn’t established. So when you add that to Ellis & Farabee missing the start at a minimum. Couturier & Hayes coming off injuries. This is all known before the off-season even ended. So to me there is no excuse if they continue to barrel through this & have an underwhelming season. This isn’t something that caught you off guard I definitely don’t want to hear it this year. Not that I was really hearing it last year anyway.

So as of now, the opening night roster is:

JVR-Couts-Konecny
Lindblom-Hayes-Atkinson
Laughton-Frost-Tippet
Cates-Brown-????

Provorov-Deangelo
Sanheim-Fisto
York-Attard

Hart
Sandstrom

Injured: Farabee, Ellis, Brink


Atrocious. Friendly reminder that this roster is currently the 3rd highest payroll in the leauge.
