1) The AHL is significantly better than the OHL. In fact, it’s not close.
2) You underrate Luchanko. He can fly. He’s a well above-average playmaker. (Goalscorer no, distributor yes). He’s quite advanced defensively. He has a very high hockey IQ. He was just stuck on a horrid Guelph team with very little around him. Not a great spot for a playmaking center. And he DID make teammates better but it was “silk purse/ sow’s ear” territory.
Regardless of your personal feelings about the player, do you feel he’s progressed since last year when he was an absolute embarrassment on the NHL ice? His junior stat sheet doesn’t show it so, as you have watched the player (although not for a few months because of this exceedingly long groin injury), is it your opinion that he’s made large strides in his game?
Last year, 100% he needed to go back to the OHL and they didn’t do it. The Front Office who celebrated his making the team and patted themselves on the back for being the smartest people in the room on draft day, are 2/3rds still here. If he still shouldn’t make the team this year, do you have any confidence that this time, they would do right by the kid (and by extension admit how bad they were at evaluating him last year)?
Is it sad that I am expecting any day now the Flyers announcement that Luchanko will require core surgery and be out an extended period of time? Simple groin injuries don’t last for months.
My uncle had a heart transplant and was up and walking for physical therapy in a day and a half. Was released a week and a half later.
While he has a ways to go the time line is amazing.Meanwhile on the flyers a groin strain lasts for months. An elbow infection requiring surgery lasts for months.
I get it that groin issues for hockey players can be tricky but cmon isn’t there therapy and treatments that aid in recovery?Or is it the typical flyer medical diagnosis? Make it sound minor while major surgery is needed.
Ok maybe offseason training for some things is delayed but really JL and TF are still questionable?
TF has until regular training camp sure but I’m not convinced he is a full participant.Speaking of which unless I missed it nothing by radio silence on risto. Another example waited months after injury to her surgery

TF has until regular training camp sure but I’m not convinced he is a full participant.Bad groin for over 2 months? Being cautious. Up next surgery.
Where is rizzo? Love saywer Boulton. I
Ellis was day-to-day for months. Gold standard
Jett out for rookie camp. They expected him ready for rookie camp and have now moved the goalposts to training camp.
While it does sound like he’s close, it also wouldn’t surprise me if they announced surgery next week because that’s how the Flyers medical team rolls.

Ellis (lower body) is expected to be healthy by the start of next season, per interim head coach Mike Yeo, Sam Carchidi of Philly Hockey Now reports. Yeo added that Ellis may need to get surgery in the offseason, but the procedure would evidently be relatively minor.Bad groin for over 2 months? Being cautious. Up next surgery.

you really are dumb as a fucking stump. have a good weekend.
Hahahaha! Yes, if it doesn’t look like Luchanko will crack your Top 6 and be a point per game player this year, send him back to the OHL! The Flyers needs at center be damned! Everything about hockey seems to stump you.
Gee I don’t know. Nothing comes to mind. N0 need to worry about offense and as long doesn’t get his brains beat out, all good. Sounds like a great development plan.
There isn’t a need to worry about your 4C scoring when you have 5 20 goal scorers in your top 9. This is not complicated. Maybe the Flyers should go out and get an elite, highly skilled, difference making fourth line center.
