      Seattle hasn’t lost in regulation yet. They’re playing with house money right now. They aren’t as desperate as MIN was Saturday. They’ve scored 3 more goals than the Flyers and given up the same number of goals in the same number of games but they are getting better bottom line in game results. Four of their five games have gone to OT. SEA also had the same points total last year at 76. No elite threats stand out for SEA, they’re pretty balanced. Top tier power play, below average penalty kill. Different kind of team that presents different kinds of matchups.

      Just stick with the process, if there is one? This team needs a few more bottom of the league finishes to acquire some actual top line talent, specifically at center. Couturier may become a good trade chip come Dec/Jan, if that’s something he’s willing to entertain.

      Much like the former captain he is content and comfortable. He and others can talk all they want about winning. If he is healthy all year as I said before, and he has any ounce of wanting to win he will ask out. I will not hold my breath he will. 4.5 years left on his deal. Lack of quality centers in the league. Cap rising. Maybe a team would take a chance. Especially being he wouldn’t have to be their top center.

      Also do you really see the flyers asking him to waive his NTC? I don’t think they have any interest in moving him. They view him as a key piece moving forward.

      All above applies to the two lovers in TK and Sanheim.

      Glad to see the kids back in the lineup, to bad Andrae didn’t join them.

      Sanheim leads the entire league in TOI/game. I guess we’ll see if he can hold up.

      What’s wrong with enjoying the moment? Six games in last year, they were 1-4-1, scored 13 goals and gave up 25.

      This year, they’re 3-2-1, have scored 18 goals and given up 16. That’s a very encouraging upgrade. They are in a playoff spot right now and actually have a game in hand or two over the teams right behind them. Facts are you friends.

      It’ll be the October banner. They’ll hold a playoff spot on Nov 1. They have games in hand and winnable games vs. OTT and NYI.

      I must say that will be an impressive feet. The team has “bought” what coach tocchet is selling. You can see it in their play. Hopefully the GM is able to identify the weak spots and add some reinforcements via trader. This group deserves at least that much as they are not hat far off.

      Risto will be a reinforcement on D. They’re fine up front.

      when they add martone in April they will have one of the best forward groups in the league. he will be that good.

      you also forgot bonk. adding risto and bonk and subtracting ginning and juulson will give the flyers a top 10 cup contending defense.

      They already have a Top 10 team defense.

      what a D group the GM has assembled. Risto may not have a spot.

      when are they eligible to extend Vlader?

      Risto, despite getting hurt a lot, has almost 800 NHL games and I thought he was better than York last year. I think they’ll find a spot for him.

      So this is what competent goaltending looks like. I am pleasantly surprised with Vladar so far, no shade. Tocchet should continue to ride him as his #1 goalie and Ersson as the backup until Vladar’s performance significantly dips. The abundance of top 9 wingers in the organization still makes me believe a trade for a Dman or center is coming over the next calendar year.

      one big issue is teams are hurting for centers. are they going to give up what the flyers need?

      The Flyers don’t need centers. Their top three centers have a combined 16 points in 18 games and are a +8. Which center is available who can upgrade that?

      flyers fans crack me up. dont need centers. As I said teams won’t give up centers for wingers more than likely. just think how good this group will be when dvorak starts scoring and the jett/nesbitt waiting in the wings.

      based on your stats is this easily a top 5 center group? where would you rank them league wide?

      another simple question for you. do you see the flyers winning a cup in the next 4 years? yes or no.

      Top half and better balanced than most.

      This year is starting to remind me a lot of the 07-08 team. By 2010, that team was in the finals.

      again, can’t answer simple questions. will assume based on that your answer is yes.

      so top 15 is your answer?

      Personally, I don’t see the resemblance to 07-08 and I certainly don’t see a Chris Pronger in their future. But ya never know…right!

      I didn’t see Pronger in their future in 07-08. These builds don’t happen all at once.
