Flyers player Milestones 2018-19

[Appleyard]

As I have the last few years, with the season not so far away I figured I would once again make a list of achievable milestones for Flyers players to reach this season. The first figure is the milestone and the bracketed figure is how many the individuals current have in that category.

Goals:

Voracek: 200 (194)

Points:

Provorov: 100 (96)
Gostisbehere: 200 (187)

Games played:

Gostisbehere: 300 (297)
MacDonald: 600 (586)

Miscellaneous:

3 more goals will put Voracek 19th all-time as a Flyer
20 more assists will put Voracek 8th all-time as a Flyer
8 more points will put Voracek 14th all-time as a Flyer

Here are the last three years threads for anyone interested:

Alex, if we can somehow unload Weise before the season begins, I hope you will come back and edit your post, removing his name so he is not the first one we see. I just threw up in my brain a little bit. Also, if anyone else passes Poulin in any statistical category, I hope you will conveniently ignore it. Thanks in advance.

 

[VladDrag]

My take..Bold will get there, italics where they will get.

Goals:

Weise: 50 (49)
Konecny: 50 (35)
Simmonds: 250 (226)
Voracek: 200 (175) - will get to 196

Assists:

Voracek: 400 (398)
van Riemsdyk: 200 (192)
Giroux: 500 (463)
Couturier: 200 (166)

Points:

van Riemsdyk: 400 (393)
Gudas: 100 (85)
Giroux: 700 (677)
Voracek: 600 (573)
Konecny: 100 (75)
Provorov: 100 (71)
Couturier: 300 (267)
Gostisbehere: 200 (150)
Simmonds: 500 (444) - To me, depends on if he gets his PP1 spot back.

Games played:

Couturier: 500 (498)
Laughton 200 (190)
Folin: 200 (183)
Lehtera: 300 (280)
Patrick: 100 (73)
Hagg: 100 (71)
Voracek: 800 (768)
Provorov: 200 (164)
Simmonds: 800 (762)
Leier: 100 (55) - Does he even make the team this season?
Konecny: 200 (151)
Sanheim: 100 (49)
Raffl: 400 (345)
MacDonald: 600 (539)
Weise: 500 (439) - He'll finish around 475 - 480
Gudas: 400 (339)
Giroux: 800 (738)
Lindblom: 100 (23) - only just
Gostisbehere: 300 (220) - A couple of minor injuries will keep him out of playing 80 this year.

My morning brain went "Oooh ohh, does this means he gets fired after 54 games?"

Then I realized no.

Then I got sad.

Thanks man. Thanks.

 

[Sawdalite]

Thanks for the Stats.

Funny but I would have bet the farm that Giroux would have had many more Games Played than both Simmonds and Jake... May have been because he was with the Flyers longer and/or he achieved his big Contract so much quicker ... as well as accumulating his Stats much faster... and also my off the cuff belief G is older.

With that though I suppose Jake and Simmer may have begun their NHL Careers at an earlier Age... although G was no slouch in that department either.

Bottom line is that I was mistaken, and thanks to this Thread I have learned I was.

 

[Beef Invictus]

I didn't know G was that close to 3rd overall for assists.

My wish and hope is that he'll never reach any of those milestones.

 

[Appleyard]

If G has a:

82gp: 25-55-80

season that will put him:

3rd all-time in GP: 820
10th all-time in goals: 239
2nd all-time in assists: 518
4th all-time in points: 757

I know, right? Talking about a flyer legend and he’s only 30.

For someone who started watching in the Leclair and Lindros era, it’s incredible to think a guy I have watched is whole career is climbing the charts like that.

I can’t see him catching Clarke but it’s possible. His remaining career should be surrounded with top players and success. Can only help.

To put Giroux vs Clarke into perspective:

If my numbers are correct...

Giroux has four years remaining on his current Contract... let's add on one more Season... bringing him to around 35 years old.

* If he plays every single Game over that span he will pass Clarke by 4 Games Played.

* If he averages 77.8 Assists over that span he will catch Clarke in Assists.

* If he averages 106.6 Points over that span he will catch Clarke in Points.

* If he were to average 28.8 Goals over that span he would catch Clarke in Goals for 4th Flyers all-time but would need to average 55.2 Goals over that span to catch Barber for Flyers Leader.

Tough climb no matter how we look at it... however, the longer Giroux plays at a high level, the better Giroux's Legacy will be... An Extended Contract would go a long way in that.

All that said, no matter how you look at it, G will end up with fantastic Stats when all is said and done.

Last night Flyers Jakub Voracek's two assists brought him to 400 career NHL assists.

 

[Appleyard]

Last night Claude Giroux went:

3rd all-time in Flyers assists, his 464th meant he went past Bill Barber (463).
8th all-time in Flyers games played, his 739th meant he went past Eric Desardins (738).

 

[Appleyard]

Sean Couturier played his 500th career NHL game and 500th game as a Flyer.

He is the 34th player in franchise history to reach that mark.

 

[Appleyard]

Yesterday Wayne Simmonds played his 527th game as a Flyer.

He therefore passed Ilkka Sinisalo (RIP) to go 28th all-time in games played in franchise history.

 

[Appleyard]

Voracek reached a few milestones today:

100th EV goal as a Flyer. 25th player all-time to reach the mark.

139th goal as a Flyer. Went 22nd all-time, passing Howe and Holmgren.

311th assist as a Flyer. Went 12th all-time, passing LeClair.

450th point as a Flyer. 17th player ever to reach that mark.

 

[Appleyard]

Last night Claude Giroux played his 747th game as a Flyer, therefore passing Joe Watson (746) to go 5th all-time in games played for the franchise.

 

[Sawdalite]

Last night Claude Giroux played his 747th game as a Flyer, therefore passing Joe Watson (746) to go 5th all-time in games played for the franchise.

By my calculations, G would have to play through the Current Contract and one year of an Extended Contract and miss no more than 6 Games in that span to Tie Clarke.

Going by his past record... which shows him playing through almost all Injuries... I honestly can see him doing it. I can't imagine Flyers ever trading G, nor his hanging up his stakes at the age of 35... but one can never predict major injuries or concerns that preclude a Player from playing.

Quite a good career the Captain is having, right in front of our very eyes.

I doubt we could see more glaring proof of how terribad we have been at bringing D-men through than this. Nothing against Ghost, obviously, but he's just gotten started.
