He seems like such a nice guy but plays a mean game

Does every team run development camps like this?

 

[Akanon]

Philadelphia Flyers @NHLFlyers
The prospects have taken the ice as Day 2 of #Flyers Development Camp gets underway.

anthonymingioni
Day 2 #flyersdevcamp. We'll call this one "Manual Resistance Power Skating Training" starring Scott Laughton #flyers

anthonymingioni
Day 2: Short area speed burst test. Aube-Kubel's turn. #flyers #flyersdevcamp

Dave Isaac ‏@davegisaac
More technology in use. #Flyers tracking sprints with four on-ice sensors. Taylor Leier sprinting here.

Anthony Mingioni @AnthonyMingioni

Aube-Kubel's speed burst test...little choppy out of the block. Leier & Laughton looked nice and smooth, though. Cousins solid too. #flyers

Anthony Mingioni @AnthonyMingioni

Call it Classic Swedish training but Oskar Lindbolm's passing & stick handling is as smooth as silk. #flyers #flyersdevcamp

Tyrell Goulbourne has one of the heaviest wrist shot in the forwards group. #flyers

 

[Danko]

Nice, keep the updates coming!

 

[Curufinwe]

A heavy punch and a heavy wrist shot.

I'm not sure if this has already been posted, but it looks like Hägg will play for the Phantoms next season.

On experience playing for Phantoms last season...
It was really fun. I hadn't had so much fun the whole season except for the World Junior in my home country. It was a great experience for me to know what to expect when I get back there this season and have positive memories with the last 10 games with the Phantoms.

He should like it even more this season with the new arena in Allentown and being close to Philly. I'm almost looking forward more to watching the Phantoms than the Flyers this year.

You wonder how much impact Hextall had last year, because all of a sudden, this team has gone from maybe one of the five worst in terms of prospects to at least average or above average.

Notice first thing Hextall does is pick up a 3rd and 4th rd pick in a supposedly deep 2015 draft after Holmgren trades the 2nd and 3rd round picks.

 

[Bryz4shiz]

Have the Flyers used on-ice sensors like that in the past or is it a new thing?

ya, but...

Tyrell Goulbourne, the goon they took in the 3rd round last year, tried to stuff the puck in the net from 2 feet in front of it every time he finished the drills. He missed almost every time.

 

[Curufinwe]

Who is that quote from?

Anthony Mingioni ‏@AnthonyMingioni

Time for what will likely be Shayne Gostisbehere's favorite test: speed burst time. Don't blink. #Flyers #flyersdevcamp

Don't think I have seen that before.

Wonder if Chip Kelly's sports science program is rubbing off onto the Flyers

Also, to nobody's surprise:

Tim Panaccio ‏@tpanotchCSN 22s
Gostisbehere clearly best sprinter in timed speed tests among the defense. Friedman pretty good

 

[Roo Mad Bro]

Video of Ghost doing the sprint test.

Dat explosiveness.

Wow!!! Damn like a rocket!!

 

[TheKingPin]

We have such a good mix at the D position coming up. Its going to be really good in the next few years with these guys. Especially if our 2015 prospect turns into a G, williams, Gagne, Ricahrds level of player.

 

[Akanon]

It's been awhile since I made a GIF, so I decided to make this. Ghost's and Sanheim's speed bursts side-by-side.

 

[Flyotes]

He looks like he's running without any ice below him. Niiiice.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Hextall didn't come until late August last year.

 

[Curufinwe]

Laughton, Stolarz, Ghost, Leier, Morin, and Hagg (and Goulbourne) are all Homgren's picks.

 

[deadhead]

Yeah, but weren't they talking with Hextall before that?

Just because the change in philosophy is obvious, was it the reason to get Hextall, or was it also things they talked about with Hextall before he came over. Not a conspiracy theory, more that the organization was leaning in this direction (not so much Holmgren, which is why I wonder about his input on drafting, his trades and signings didn't signal a big shift, i.e. Vinny, Hartnell's long-term deal, JVC for Schenn, etc.).

Would Hextall have come if he hadn't seen a commitment to youth and speed over age and "Flyer toughness."

Yes Hextall's secretly been on the payroll for these past few years.
