[Appleyard]

he play with giroux and voracek
in 2012 hartnell score 37 goal with giroux

Hartnell scored 30 with Carter and Lupul in 08-09.

Hartnell factored for 28 with a mixture of Legwand, Radulov and Erat I believe.

Hartnell averaged from 03-04 to 11-12:

26 goals per 82 games.

37 was an anomaly created by G mainly... but Hartnell still had the ability to bury the great looks as for a long time he was a pretty damn good goalscorer.

You don't average 26 goals a year for 8 straight seasons in the NHL if you are not.

 

[FlyersFan61290]

Scored 30 with Briere and Leino.

Scored 25 and 22 goals in successive seasons with an offensively hampered Nashville.

So what's your point? Also, if you didn't notice, he had 3 assists in the one game, and he had the primary assist for all of them, which means he made them happen more than anyone else.



He played on the PP because Schenn was hurt, so what? He did fine, and we got 2 goals from that power play too, with him getting an assist. Erskine is a defenseman and I'm pretty sure Vandevelde wasn't on the ice when the altercation happened with Wilson.

So you're trying to prove what?

If Rosehill were in Schenn would never have been hit and the Flyers would have scored 6 goals instead of 5.

 

[Curufinwe]

vandevelde bring nothing to this team rosehill and mcginn deserve to play with the team
great game by hall voracek and simmonds

Go back to practice, Jay.

So basically, based on a majority of your posts, it seems you would rather have two tough players to fight instead of two players who actually have a bit of speed and skill.

Raffl is much better than McGinn and Vandevelde is much better than Rosehill. If you had any clue what you were talking about you would know this.

I wasn't a fan of VV at the time of the signing, but I also wasn't fully aware of his capabilities. He's definitely better then Rosehill or McGinn.

I don't know why you are so in love with tough guys and enforcers that can barely play.

But my lazy Jagr argument doesn't work when you bring facts into it...

 

[Beef Invictus]

watch the last game

the hit by wilson? and the caps have erskine lol

Rosehill never would have prevented the hit on Schenn. I can't believe you still believe in this bizarre myth that enforcers magically prevent hits like that.

The only way Rosehill prevents that hit is if he flies off the bench at superhuman speed to dive between Wilson and Schenn.

If you think Wilson has any fear of Rosehill, you don't know Wilson.

flyersfan28 definitely keeps the entertainment factor going around here.

And so would Jay Rosehill on the ice!!!!!

Rosehill is too small....we should trade him for J.Scott. That may have prevented the hit on Schenn

I'm 6'5" so they can hire me for one mil if they'd like. I would stop players charging each other from my position on the bench so well man.

Done! 3 year contract with a NMC

I assumed the NMC was a given.

As if you wouldn't take league minimum.

A bit ot but at 6'5" how much do you weigh?

lol no way
mcginn is a 2/3liner
raffl is what ? nodl/fedotenko type of player

 

[Garbage Goal]

With how Raffl is playing lately we don't know what he is. He's either a more well-rounded Nodl or a more well-rounded Nodl with a scoring touch.

Either way, there's no way McGinn is a second liner. He's not a good enough scorer and he doesn't do anything particularly well aside from bringing energy and the odd goal every once in a while. He's also not a great enough two-way presence to be an ideal third liner.

I have standards ya know.

My range wildly varies and I don't check it often enough to know for sure. In high school (about almost five years ago and at pretty much the same height) I was 140. After high school I put on weight for the military and went up to like 160'ish. Last I checked since leaving the military I was 175.

175 sounds light for 6'5" (which it is I guess), but the ideal weight is around 202 and an ideal weight involves me taking care of myself and exercising. So that's a no-go.

now you take hartnell or mcginn ?

McGinn is a 2/3 liner in the AHL, sure. He's not a 2/3 liner in the NHL.

If he's a Fedotenko type player then we've hit the jackpot, actually.

 

[Garbage Goal]

Me and every other sane fan takes Hartnell for more then just a call-up basis. Even if Hartnell is regressing and is limited in his effectiveness he at least has something to bring to an NHL roster that's fit for a top six role.

McGinn brings sparkplug energy. That's about it.

I understand very well. Take advantage of the holidays though, with all the extra calories hit the weight room hard and you'll see good results. Just another benefit of this wonderful time of year.

Happy holidays for you too.

I'm not a fan of the holidays though. Then again I'm also the Grinch so whatever.
