The sight of flahr makes me physically sick

@Magua - I looked at EH’s model for Cam, see the card below.

He was a decent player during that time, not spectacular. Similar type effects at Hockey viz as well

 

[Magua]

I agree. I meant, you beat me to it!

I went back and took a photo just in case anyone wasn't watching. This was their actual designed set-up.

Dude - Tippett has two dicks tattooed on his arm.

And here is the last 3 years played.

Torts the offensive whiz has 2 guys below the goal line on a 5v3.

Giroux with a beauty tonight. So good

How much of that is skewed by 2016 though? He's also never been a high usage player on the PP.

I feel like slot/net front players are the most teammate dependent on a unit. Don't think that's revelatory. Atkinson's heat maps are basically exactly there. I'm not entirely sure how much GAR/xGAR can account for that -- especially for fringe average numbers -- because you're entirely reliant on being given the puck. And it's going to be a shot with value.

I think we both know the only logical place to ever have him is as a bumper. Funnily enough, in the years afterwards, he drifts more to the wall. And that's a black hole. Where did the Flyers use him heavily? Where did Tortorella primarily have him (which mostly doesn't include those years)? You can surmise.

Did you not see the intricate hot potato sequence those two initiated? It confused the shit out of the defense. They fell for it hook line and sinker! Brilliant design!

Giroux with a beauty tonight. So good

That guy is decent but he’s no star of the game Garnet Hathaway…

 

[bennysflyers16]

Jets announcers gushing over Giroux and how important he is to a young team. Sawyer is at ice level saying G never stops talking to young guys.

We ran him out of town and signed Shit truck

 

[Magua]

Best passing forward on the team (who also sucks on the PP). Don't @ me.

Don't need vets good with young guys when you keep the young guys in the AHL.

 

[Columbus Hockey Dad]

Holy shit, Frost!

 

[VladDrag]

frost is so sick.

 

[FromOyVey2Matvei]

FROSTY!

Someone tell Torts they left the seat up!

 

[BiggE]

Right now, Torts is thinking playoffs.

Torts has also been kicked in the head at least once.

 

[VladDrag]

I can’t help but think about how Torts was suggesting that Cates could become a better offensive player than Frost….that was 2 weeks ago during the first presser.

Goal check.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Flyers 5-2

Hopefully Atkinson scores over 30 this season

It was a bit skewed, but he had a decent years in 15-16 and 16-17. But everything else is either blah or down right bad.

I will look into pp vs es numbers once I get some time. Maybe tomorrow

Who is in the booth with Jackson?

I only care about how many goals he has at the trade deadline…

 

[Adam Warlock]

4th line is trash and is prob one of the more expensive 4th lines in the league.

Hilarious that a team who drafts so many bottom six forwards still has to sign their entire 4th line in free agency.
