Guys from the Q no sold on recently. That league as taken a slide downward. We shall see. Can the flyers develop him is the big question.
take it for what it is worth, that appleyard guy says his sources told him the flyers have not spoken to Shabanov or his agents.
Knuble was a pick I didnt like at the time. Been watching him for 10 years and just didn’t think it was a good pick. My opinion has changed. He could end up being a solid bottom 6 player. He is one I will track going forward.
Would have no issue with McKee. In fact that is how I would lean, if not him get a fresh voice in the orginization. Maybe, God forbid, you groom said person to be the next head coach of the flyers. This is spot where they have the ability to pay an AHL coach well to get his services. He has had some success at the junior level.
What’s the deal with Smith. Seems to have done a good job with the defense at the AHL level. Honestly don’t know much about his coaching style or what he is about.
They did the aligned systems previously. Tortorella was against it, believing a coach should have totally freedom to implement his own systems. It doesn’t really seem to make a big difference, one way or the other. Most players adapt.
I think it does make a difference. Makes the process easier and simplified.
Bill any rumors on who they are looking at for the LHV coaching job? Does Jason Smith have a shot? Will they keep him?
I mentioned Shabanov few weeks ago. If you can add free talent you obviously do it. Doesn’t cost you anything. These are the type of moves they need to make. If it works out it then allows you to move another winger in a separate deal to address a need.
Don’t waste your time arguing with him. He’s just a keyboard warrior who likes to stir the pot with his constant negativity.
wrong as I am a:
Cement head out as Phantoms coach. about time.
“Laperriere, 51, has not been fired, although it is unclear what role he will have moving forward, although it seems like Flyers would like to keep him in some capacity.”
** flyers till cant help themselves.
