No, they also need to acquire elite talent at center. They desperately need a #1 center. When was the last time they did that? So apparently it is complicated for you. No, they don’t have to get to the bubble. That would be the worst thing they could do now. They need to acquire elite talent through the draft. The best way to do that is to draft high. This is not complicated. You do understand that who a player slots behind, doesn’t affect the level of player that he is. Hague is not a top 4 level NHL defenseman. He is poor defensively and offers little offense. He is not a smart move for the Flyers. Develop and play the young kids. This is not complicated
They are not going to put themselves in a position get high picks. You need to accept this fact. What you want them to do will not come to fruition.
What young kids should they be playing as the cubbard is pretty bare. Grans is about the only one at this time.
The Flyers only know one way. The Flyers way; it has produced lots of winning.
The “right” ways has passsd this management team. You do realize they finished 4th overall not by design.
Some will and some will regress. That’s hockey. The Flyers were, by far, the worst team in the league in save percentage. It wasn’t even close. It’s imperative at least THAT gets a lot better this year. A goalie who can stop pucks and a Top 4 Dman will help that a lot. There are guys who can do that who are available and are plug and play, no waiting for development.
Who do you suggest they pursue in free agency? What about via trade excluded Hague.
how do you decide when to post as furio16 vs yes its me 2050? flip a coin?
weird how he posts all day everyday and then all of a sudden stops – and now you’re here lol
Get back to the board when you have something even remotely productive to add. You offer nothing. Zero. Zilch. Nada.
The top teams in the conference scooped up a lot of points this season. Two teams only needed 91 points to get to the playoffs. That may not hold this year, but if the Flyers can patch together another 10 wins over 82 games, they should make it. Of course, they need to fill the two main holes I’ve talked about endlessly here to do that. I do think that is possible.
Do you think other teams will improve or just the Flyers?
The path looks simple yet the Flyers still have these glaring needs at all 3 core positions.
Are the Flyers just incapable of the path is so simple?
All of sports is based on wishful thinking. I’m cynical enough to think “believe” should be a very high bar but with a couple shrewd moves, I think this team can improve noticeably this season. Noticeable enough to be pretty entertaining.
I don’t see it. This management team has shown me next to nothing to give them any leadway.
I don’t expect that from Bonk at all. How manyD have they drafted in the last dozen years that is a good quality NHL defenseman? 3? 4?
The D needs help now and the future. The Cubbard is pretty bare.
I have once again little faith the Flyers brass being shrewd or savy. They will overpay for a dman and strut around like the smartest guys in the room.
