Wrong. I could eviscerate his and your idiotic headline click bait point of view of events but this is a hockey forum. You started it and I’m ending it. Stick to hockey.
Ug please. You and your maga playbook can barely get yourself out of an open sleeping bag.
I know facts hurt your little follower brain and that you are drawn to lies and propaganda like a useless flie to orange maga shit, but take a break.
Once in a while, take off your bandana mask, your made in china make whities great again hat and breath in a little reality.[/quote]
What’s the maga playbook? New system berube is using ?Said to be his choice. But he said at Development Camp that attending NHL Camp this September was his goal unless the Flyers wish otherwise.
Yep he did and that’s odd to all of a sudden change your mind as he seemed dead set on camp.
They better hope no friction.
Smart move. Zero need to rush him at this time. Gets to play more than likely top minutes in every situation. Guess they will burn a year when bis season is over. This assumes they learned their lesson
Penn state to close didn’t want them hawking over him……
Did the flyers push him at all for college or was 100% his choice?
1) Foerster won’t start the season healthy, so it provides an immediate stop-gap (and lessens the temptation to rush Martone),
2) He’s flat out more talented than Brink, bigger and faster,
3) If he can stay healthy (big if) he’s a 20-goal guy who has a decent all-around game,
4) He shouldn’t take much to acquire.
1. they have other players in house to look at excluding martone.
2. hasn’t proved that yet.
3. that’s the rub
4. no idea. off load tippets contract…
Penn State is reported to have offered him 250k[/quote]
hope he goes to college to play against bigger mature players.
With NIL money being a thing, at first I thought the issue with Martone not being able to attend camp if he chooses college was one of those (now) archaic college financial rules. Makes more sense if it has to do with classes being in session. You don’t want players missing too many classes for non school sanctioned events.
I hope he chooses to go to Michigan State. I would rather be patient, and get him on the Flyers when there is no way he can be kept off the team.
if he goes to college can’t imagine any scenario where he isnt a one and done. unless he pulls a cutter…..
wonder how much he would get in NIL funds. owen Mclaughlin, flyers 7th rd pick, left North Dakota for BU. he got over 150k. whats the max for martone?
knowing nashville wanted to draft him doesn’t install a lot of confidence. seeing how poorly they ae run.
flyers love drafting the low ceiling players.
What do you think martone should do? is Europe really an option martone would consider?
they are doing a poor job of building around sanheim and tk.
in 4 years if/when they are a “contending” team sanheim will be 32/33 on the downside. tk 32 on the downside. in other words they have wasted their prime years in philly. like many others over the last decade plus.
nothing has changed. they refuse to pick a real lane.
Are those 2, guys you can currently build around to become cup contenders?
Neither are what anyone would call superstars but yes. You can continue to build a cup contending team around those guys. As an example, the last time the Flyers went to the finals, Richards was their 1C and his scoring numbers were never elite. A couple seasons he did hit 1 PPG. Up to that season, Kimmo had been their #1 Dman. A fine Dman but they went out and added Pronger and got to the finals that year. I’m not a big fan of “the core isn’t good enough” argument. The core is what you’ve got and the Flyers have plenty of holes and question marks before even worrying about if the 1C and 1D are good enough.
Then why aren’t the flyers building around those 2?
Konecny and Sanheim are both excellent players. You don’t get chosen to the Canadian national team by being not good. The issue the Flyers have is building around the spotty good they do have.[/quote]

It is cute to see peeps still defend the flyers. Never gets old.
What have the flyers done to give you confidence they can get out of this decade plus hole they have dug?
Specifics please. Not sure discussing how Cup winners are actually built in the NHL, not in some fantasy hockey league is defending the Flyers, but OK.
Over the last couple seasons, they’ve taken steps towards building what wins in the NHL not what some Ice Capades fans think wins in the NHL.
They have taken no steps. Wheels keep spinning. They love fans like you. Go flyers
My bad all those big guys they just drafted will help fill the bottom 6 in 4 years
Still no potential #1 D or center on system. Can argue goalie as well
