Really nice vision and pass from Foerster on that goal. Not gonna be long for media to stop ignoring these traits of his. I've seen a lot more of his playmaking than shooting.


Here you go. An article from the propaganda machine talking mostly about him from last night. The words "shoot," "goal," "shot" were used 15 times. We even got 4 for "physicality" and "battle." And a single "200-foot." Those mostly courtesy of Lappy. The word "pass"......0 times. Not that this organization needs to further beat you over the head with their narrow view of hockey and skill-sets.

Cause he was a poor skater… that’s kind of important.

Yes it does seem to be. Akeson's skating poopficiency finally convinced me to take skating more seriously, besides just staring at speed and acceleration. On top of that I don't think he had any ability to fool or deceive NHL level guys. Just easy to defend in the NHL in general

When people wonder why we say these things about what they value and seek to pound into prospects, this is why. Because they tell us exactly what they value

Reading this page once again reminds us that the Flyers truly are the worst org in the league.

There doesn’t seem to be a single competent person in management, scouting, coaching, or anywhere else in this shithole. They exclusively value the wrong things.
You are correct the Flyers don’t seem to have any competent person especially in the front office and the development staff is nonexistent.

The front office has a bunch of retired dinosaur players from long ago or moronic idiots that don’t have a clue about running a professional hockey team in todays day and age.
