Is Gus still hurt or something? Any special reason he isn't being given playing time in the NHL?

I'm sure that Lavy doesn't know how to use him. Just like how he uses Briere in places he shouldn't be.

hes playing. Picked up an assist and was a +1 in Sundays game in ADK.
Gotta play the vets tho. Even if they suck.

Gervais 409 GP 16G 68A 180 PIMS -76
Foster 392 GP 42G 118A 160 PIMS -30

Gustafsson 44 GP 1 G 6A 8 PIMS +6

yep Gervais and Foster are fine options for every day +6 options over Gustafsson. LOL

Agreed. It makes no sense to stick Gustafsson in the minors when now is the perfect opportunity to let him show what he can do on the Flyers.

Homer/Lavi: It makes no sense to play young guys when we have so much experience sitting on the bench. So much sweet, succulent, old, washed up, painful-to-watch experience.

Saturday afternoon update:

From Holmgren: Grossmann won't return from injury soon (per Randy Miller).

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Holmgren -- Q and A w/media (March 30)

Do you anticipate Danny Briere (concussion) and/or Nick Grossmann (upper body injury) will play again this season?

“I don’t know about Danny. Grossmann, I do anticipate him back. It certainly won’t be tomorrow.”

 

[shipwreck]

I hope he is back soon...

Grossmann in a normal (not no-contact) jersey today. I bet he plays.

Woohoo!!!!

I'm stil l waiting for that autographed, game used Grossmann stick I bought from the Flyers Charity. They are apparently still waiting for boxes to ship

Anyway - I am super glad to see him back and better

 

[hckyplayer8]

Yes!

Getting healthy is step one. Perhaps we can gain some consistency...

Would be nice to see Grossmann back in the lineup, hope they don't ship Gusty back to the minors though, he has been solid.

I'd assume Grossmann be in for Lauridsen (or Timonen if he can't go).

Timonen-Schenn
Grossmann-Gervais
Gus-Huskins

I can all but guarantee Lauridsen would be the odd man out and I think that's evident based on their ice time recently. Gus has been showing off his offensive skills and was rewarded with a fortuitous bounce the other day. He also takes less penalties and honestly at this point is better in his own zone too. Only thing the Dane has on Gus is size/physicality but unfortunately for him that won't be enough to keep him in the lineup when Grossmann returns IMO.

 

[FlyersFan61290]

If gross still doesn't play tomorrow and kimmo can't go I wonder who we'll see. I assume foster. That would be a brutal d. Having Schenn and Gus (who replaced kimmo as Schenn's parter in the 3rd last night) as your 1st pairing is not ideal to say the least

Injury update: Flyers' Grossmann is doubtful for Tues.

 

[shipwreck]

this just keeps sucking....

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

bummer. was hoping to get him back. maybe we can hope for the return home from the trip.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Nick Grossmann has a concussion, per media reports post-practice April 8

Per Philly Inq./Sam Carchidi ‏@BroadStBull

Grossmann has concussion

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Figures, just shut him down and let him get healthy for next year. They went from him possibly playing this week to the Flyers being very quiet about his situation today to he's now got a concussion.

 

[Beef Invictus]

Of COURSE he does.

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Oh my god... ... **** this...

 

[Beef Invictus]

We have to be in the top 3 for man games lost. I'm pretty sure Ottawa has us beat, and maybe Columbus...though at this point I wouldn't be surprised if we took the number 1 or 2 spot.

Edit: Nope! 4th; and I forgot about Florida. Apparently Detroit leads the league, I didn't know they were so banged up.

I thought Florida was **** out of luck for a while because of injuries?
