Which speaks to how lousy everyone on quebec's cousin vinny is now. Thank the stars MB wasn't able to sign him and that TBL ownership kiboshed gainey's reported deal.

Scott Laughton - R.J. Umberger

Chris VandeVelde - P-E Bellemare - Ryan White

The Flyers play all these guys in front of Vinny.

Holmgren sucked so bad they can't even rebuild if they wanted to. They have half of the bad contracts in the NHL.

You have DSP on the 4th and as a healthy scratch. Me thinks you meant Flynn on the 4th.

Fixed. For what it's worth, Ghetto and DSP were alternating at that RW spot at practice today.

Thanks for catching that...

...and thanks for fixing it.

To me, Sekac looked so good in his short time with the Habs. Any ideas why he's struggling so much?

Raw skill isn't everything. There's no denying he has the talent to be in the NHL but I'm starting to wonder if he can think the game at the NHL level. One on one he's fine (we've seen a few nice individual plays from him in Montreal and Anaheim) but maybe he struggles to play in a system?

One of my satisfactions in recent years has been the suckage of the Flyers - historically almost a perennial contender, and usually a royal pain in the tuckus to the Habs. Long may they continue to be mediocre.

Logic says DSP plays RW on the 3rd line (his natural position) and the other 3 lines go un touched...

Key word being logic

Hey now that sounds like you are insulting Don's uncle Michelle.

I heard Pelly is playing today? Hopefully he tosses his weight around and isn't invisible out there.

GHG!

I guess Pelly was bitching about not playing

Seems maybe Barberio has pushed Pateryn-Tinordi farther down depth chart.

Maybe, but I think Barberio is more of a Gilbert replacement (i.e., a puck-moving D) and that's why he's getting a shot.

DSP plays more like Weise than Ghetto does.

In terms of physicality at least - and against Philly, they need that. I'd suggest Andrighetto is more likely to provide an offensive punch on that line. I wouldn't be surprised if the two flip spots tomorrow against New Jersey.
