Ryan Hartman

[renberg]

I was surprised with the speed at which the Flyers, especially the forwards, played last night. Since they went with eleven forwards and the only addition to them was Hartman, credit has to go to him. His play made the bottom lines look a lot better than in most past games. Lets hope that he can keep it up.

Really like this trade for you guys.

One word to describe Ryan Hartman's play: BOLD

Think about all these depth guys that the Flyers had with Hackstol. Boring 3rd and 4th line players. I swear sometimes I think Laughton is the least creative player I've ever seen. But he tries hard so he makes the team and he's a good forechecker.

I believe Hartman is of a similar mold as these type of players except he has an edge and he's not scared to try a move or hit somebody. This is exactly the type of players the Flyers need as bottom 6 players IMHO over guys like Lehtera, Weiss, Laughton, etc I actually also think that Hartman is a good enough skater and has enough skill to fill in at a top 6 role from time to time.

Bit of a braindead moment on his back check that ended up in the back of our net. To his defence though, no one could be expected to see foresee the massive stupidity of Ghost's "play" at the blue line there. Overall nice first showing in orange and black though, the kind of player we need a bit more of around here.

One question I had was who were his linemates in Chicago?

After not liking the deal to liking it I’m going to wait the rest of the year before loving it. But it seems Fletcher went out and got exactly what this team needed. One of the things at least. The way Hartman played last night he will be a 20 goal scorers with Frost and JVR.

He kind of reminds me of a less talented konecny. Looks like a twin of Taylor Leier

Edit: I mean he looks like Leier in his face haha

It's called "rebuilding." Hextall filled out the back of the roster with low cost scrubs and saved his assets for the draft.

Hextall has collected a bunch of talented young forwards but it takes a while from the draft to the NHL: Frost, Ratcliffe, Rubtsov, Laberge, Kase, Allison, Laczynski, Farabee, O'Brien - but we're talking 1-3 more years.

Which is why Fletcher was looking for a young forward who was NHL ready, not another prospect who won't arrive for a few years - the cupboard was fill, so unless you're getting a top 20 pick, why bother? And I doubt anyone offered a 1st for Simmonds. A late 2nd is likely to be another NAK or Bailey. Whereas Hartman can help right now and for the next 2-3 years on a low cost RFA contract.

When did Leier ever hit anyone? Or showed any NHL scoring talent?

I should've clarified - I meant looks wise haha

 

[KrazyKat]

The last thing we need is Hartman taking ice time away from Konecny.

Also, he had 19 goals in Chicago. Not "over 20."

I am not saying he should be taking over Konecny’s spot. But keep in mind Hartman is 24, drafted around a similar spot Konecny was. If needed he could fill in there.

He moved around a lot both in Chicago & Nashville but his most common linemate in Chicago was Kane.

He played a lot of 5v5 with Hossa.

Edit this was the 16-17 season the famous 19 goal season.

It was just one game, but to me he definitely looked like a guy whose floor is the 3rd line and who can easily play up in the top 6 and not look out of place. He seems to have a fair amount of skill and smarts to go along with his skating and snarl.

[Rebels57]

Fun fact about Simmonds' 5 on 5 play - his career plus/minus rating as a Flyer is by far the worst of any skater in franchise history. The second worst rating is -44; Simmonds accumulated a -78 rating in the Orange and Black.

I was a HUGE fan of Ryan Hartman's in his draft year; he was one of my all-time favorite prospects. I simply love what this kid brings to the table - he's a winner. He will be a fan favorite here in no time and can absolutely be a key contributor on the third line of a Cup-contending squad.

Plus/minus doesnt really shed a lot of insights into a players overall game. Its almost meaningless.

Thanks. Looks like hossa and toews and a few 3rd/4th line guys.

 

[Magua]

Way too many boring businesslike “professionals” he didn’t have to worry about off ice & who’d follow his diet plans & other instructions.

Aaaaaaaaand a cocaine kingpin.

 

[Ghosts Beer]

Aaaaaaaaand a cocaine kingpin.

Well, that’s certainly businesslike. But think Ron would have traded for him if he knew those allegations?
Otherwise, Lehtera was the typical slow, boring veteran who was lauded by Ron for how good he was “in the room.”

Emrakul, the Aeons Torn ???

That's very aspirational of Hartman. I'd be impressed!

Damn me for getting this joke. Now I want Progenitus in goal because he's indestructible.

 

[Outlaw Samurai]

Hartman 4 Prez!

 

[mercury]

It really looks like the guy in the stands is the one punching him.

Progenitus has protection from everything. He'll never be bad enough to get waived, or put on the IR due to injury. He may be healthy scratched though, the only thing that could stop him his a reject coach like our former HC, Doubtfully Helpful.

Hak would feed him to a sac outlet for one colorless mana.
