Proposal: Nolan Patrick to Ottawa

[BernieParent]

As someone who lives with the exact same disorder as Patrick -- I feel fairly confident that my knowledge on the topic FAR exceeds yours. Weren't you not coming back?



Regarding the bolded, there really isnt. There are medications that you can take to help manage them, but they are mostly reactionary measures. Different people have different triggers, so its not like "you broke your foot, put it in a cast, come back in 6 weeks." kinda resolution. As for talking about the value? I dont know what you mean. Im on record in this thread that Patrick has minimal value currently. I was responding to a grossly incorrect post about Patrick being the only one who is one hit away from a career ending concussion.

I'm just finishing a literature search on preventive therapies for chronic and episodic migraines to write a manuscript on it for neurologists. The approved class of prophylactic agents in the US are called calcitonin gene-receptor protein inhibitors and there are others coming down the pipeline. So, yes, there is a growing ability to give preventive therapy.

Don't just say your piece, make sure you get the last word! Multiple times, if you have to!

Does it bother you that I reply to people asking me questions?

Yeah, were getting there and making progress. But it's one of those weird medical phenomenon that was completely unknown for a long period of time. We knew more about what lies beyond our galaxy than what we could do to prevent severe migraines.

Man I remember wanting Logan Brown so bad when it was his draft year. I thought he would be at worst a 2nd line massive beast of a center. Man I was wrong.

He's still very young and has gotten better every year. It's too early to write him off before he's even had a chance to play in the NHL.

He is probably too young to remember, but Patrice Bergeron was once one concussion away from retiring.

Did he get more concussions without retiring?

What argument did I start there, sport? May want to re-read the thread.

Sport? I bet you cook a mean burger on that grill with your white leather new balances on.

And maybe I don't want to re-read the thread. Lol

You used the wrong "piece" in your answer.

The Flyers don't need more depth players back in a trade.
When it come to center the Flyers are set long term with.
Couts
Hayes
Patrick
Frost.

Patrick has had a great camp and so far has show no fear going into high risk areas. Only 2 realistic moves for Flyers a) They go star hunting and trade youth (i.e. frost plus) for a goal scorer. b) Come deadline Flyers trade for a rental rhd.

I think that the Flyers should use Frost to get another top 3 defenseman ( if possible). I see Frost on this Flyers team as it's constructed as a 4 line center that plays the PP. He won't be ahead of Couturier, Hayes or a HEALTHY Patrick. If you want to try and win now with Giroux/Voracek then this to me, should be the Flyers plan going forward.

But it looks so fun when you do it I had to try it for myself.

Somewhere, theres a bridge people are free to pass over safely right now.

If the Flyers use Frost for a legit rhd AFTER the ED you have to consider it.

And tonight is why you keep Frost. Couturier missed the whole game with an injured shoulder and could be out a while.

Always keep your C depth, even if they have to play on the wing awhile.

As for Patrick, he looked good again tonight and picked up an assist.

2 games, 2 point, playing well, and with Couturier hurt, is needed.
