here I I I named this podcast right now hate brings people together because that
1:23
is truly what this weekend was about like like that's that's what brings people together it's hating on people
1:29
[ __ ] talking and we truly saw that on on Saturday night in Philadelphia I am so
1:35
bummed I just didn't like bite the bullet and buy a ticket to that game it looked so fun um you were there right it
1:42
was it was incredible I kept Che checking ticket prices and like a pair popped up lower level behind the net for
1:49
the same price as like upper level tickets are going for like all right let's get this this is one of the Flyers
1:54
fans have had this game circled on the calendar since the schedule came out you got to be there in the atmosphere and it
2:00
was truly incredible from like I I wasn't there for the starting lineups but of course I didn't start cutter
2:06
anyway but from puck drop the we want cutter to to [ __ ] you cutter to Jam's
2:11
better to just everything going on and him every time every time he he stepped
2:16
on the ice like I I was staring at like whenever a line change was happening I was staring at the bench to see if
2:22
cutter was coming on getting ready to boo and he he completely shrunk in the spotlight he barely touched the puck on
2:28
his first few shifts I know he didn't really play too much in the third period wasn't engaged whatsoever even when the
2:34
even when the Flyers tried to get him going kky of course saying I will fight you I'll [ __ ] fight you and then lton
2:41
giving him a giving him a few a few Bops there uh but yeah just a incredible win
2:46
incredible atmosphere the the complete opposite of the Stars game because the Stars game from the get-go was like all right this is gonna suck probably like a
2:53
51 loss but this game even before the the Flyers scored like it was it was icings and there Flyers controlled play
2:59
and just it blew off from there I was very close to uh getting the score
3:04
prediction right I said it was going to be 61 and it ended up six zero so I I nearly nailed that um my favorite moment
3:12
was the the scrum and then Garnet halfway you just see his hand come out
3:18
from the scrum and grab cutter goer by the shoulder and just Jo him right into
3:23
the thick of things and I was like yeah that's why you got that contract extension seeing garet haway in a game
3:31
with that kind of atmosphere man that was fun um I saw a lot of people saying
3:37
that the vibe was similar to the Claud JW game his final uh game with the
3:43
Flyers against the Predators I was were you at that one too I I was there with the Broad Street hockey people I don't
3:48
think you were with Broad Street hockey yet but we had a whole like group group of tickets like lower level like one of
3:54
the last rows we were all like behind the behind the net there but yeah that was it's not not a similar atmosphere
3:59
but like the loudest it's been since then because this that was like all about loving the C loving JW and like
4:05
sending him off right and this was welcoming cutter here with a a good Philadelphia welcome there that was it
4:12
was so fun I was sitting on the couch just cackling at every scrum afterwards or after every whistle um I'm I'm
4:20
assuming all the all the all the chance and stuff came through on the broadcast oh yeah it was fun to hear JJ try being
4:26
like well we can't really tell you what they're saying but you could probably hear it on your televisions at home um
4:32
my favorite was the LA Times apparently said that fans were chanting thank you
4:38
cutter thank you which is false um the Ducks Twitter stopped tweeting out the
4:44
score after the third goal um what else what else um I mean the
4:51
game was the game was close for a while it was two nothing until the tippet goal
4:57
on the 2on one from connecting the third in the period Then third period you had the the paling the me goof and the haway
5:04
just to to P it on I mean my biggest concern was that the Flyers were going to [ __ ] the bed or excuse me [ __ ] the
5:10
beach yeah um going into that game but hey they didn't embarrassed themselves they they
5:16
showed up and did what they needed to do and everyone on that roster pretty much
5:23
had a good game except for one Joel faraby because he wasn't it's j it
5:28
sounds like he's gonna be a Ben Monday night as well this podcast is going to be going out till after that game I saw
5:33
torella said there some guys banged up so you know the lines aren't aren't exact but CER seeler looked down bad at
5:42
the end of that Ducks game so maybe we get Eric Johnson I don't know I would hope if he's not gonna go they would
5:49
bring up Andre but I mean Johnson is up here I guess that's short short on time yeah yeah I guess yeah I guess it
5:57
was feeling well enough after Saturday or yesterday woke up and felt fine but uh yeah I wrote for broad stre hockey in
6:03
my uh about John toell comments we'll get to that but this was the Flyers biggest shutout win since uh six nothing
6:09
against the Columbus Blue Jackets on March 5th 2016 John torella was a head
6:15
coach of the Blue Jackets in that one I so and Radco gutus was the first star for the Flyers with two goals and two
6:21
assists so it's a how how how the how the how the turns tables here four points for rco for rco Gish yeah geez
6:29
how many points he have on Saturday uh I mean he had at least 12 penalty minutes oh yeah cuz he uh messed around
6:36
with mechkov and mechkov gave it back to him that was that was fun to see and then mechkov goes out and scores a goal
6:43
after the penalty I think I think it was after I I don't remember a sweet s from
6:49
meof there getting getting off the schneide there he needed one I mean I don't know if Cony may have been doing a
6:55
pass off the backboards there I don't know if he would have missed the net up I mean four four primary assist in that game for connect to just like that's
7:03
showing what he can do should have traded him apparently yeah should have traded him yeah and of course the Jamie
7:08
dry stale goal I mean a beautiful play to cut to the net make a nice play to go a five hole there on Gibson and the
7:15
Jam's better chance just ringing throughout the arena was uh was incredible and you could tell that that he loved it like during the game after
7:21
the game he talked about it he got the belt they put put the video out of that so hopefully this is something that the
7:27
Flyers can build on especially m off and Dale yeah and uh Dale in particular I
7:34
think like that I hope that was a confidence boost for him he's been playing very well since coming back from
7:40
injury um but the points had been there now he's got two PowerPlay points one
7:46
was that goal from kkny which was awesome and then he got a secondary
7:51
assist on mkv's goal so he's doing exactly what he needs to do um and the
7:59
players needed that that that was really the only opportunity they had to have a Get Right game in the next few weeks cuz
8:07
except for two opponents they are all Eastern Conference teams and you know
8:14
the East isn't great but these are the same teams that they're vying for a playoff spot with so they have more
8:20
weight I guess yeah big big stretch of games here going into the four Nation tournament we'll get into that in a
8:26
little bit but just more on more on Saturday's game uh John comments afterwards people didn't love
8:32
them he was like he was like let me read it here I wrote it up um oh who cares whatever we have to talk about it he
8:38
says I know he says uh you know what I hope I hope you can play in front of a crowd like that about something meaningful not that [ __ ] that whatever
8:46
you guys are talking about I hope it means something to the organization as far as winning and losing that's when I want to see a crowd like that not all
8:52
this stuff you guys are talking about I want it to be that we are a team to be reckoned with in a playoff series not
8:57
this [ __ ] and he's right he's not he's not wrong whatsoever and but at the same
9:02
time like he could have added to that like okay this this you know hopefully could be a good stepping stone this shows how good the fans can be and like
9:10
can can show the young players like something to strive for but this is very much it's just John torella being being
9:16
John torella and being the head coach of a hockey team that knows he has the reigning Stanley Cup champions up next I
9:24
mean I I tweet or sked God we got to come up with something better than that but
9:30
that like [ __ ] on cter gotier is saying like that was a stepping like
9:35
that's not his role the players went out there and spoke with their game and they absolutely just crushed the Ducks TK the
9:44
spiritual leader of the team during intermission said we're giving him a hard time you know and it's it's good
9:52
we're playing good I don't know if you saw the intermission interview after I did I saw I saw uh Thomas wrote that up
9:57
on bry.com and he posted it posted in there there it was like he was like I don't know the kid personally we're just
10:03
giving him a hard time like yeah yeah and uh his loss you know so TK TK
10:08
speaking the words for the players the entire team spoke with how they played
10:13
uh the organization from the moment the schedule dropped had been promoting this
10:19
game as part of a rivalries package yeah which was wild because it was like oh yeah the Penguins the Rangers and the
10:26
Anaheim Ducks sure why not so if torz is like well the media is doing this like
10:33
take a look at your own marketing department because they've been hyping this one up since from the get-go but uh
10:38
no it's not his role it's not his role to [ __ ] on this kid it's not his role to be that
10:44
mouthpiece I'm perfectly fine with him saying correctly I hope the fans can get
10:49
excited about something meaningful and not just [ __ ] on some dumb kid yeah
10:56
I I mean I I completely agree with that but yeah cutter go I he came out and Kevin CDs I think went down to the class
11:02
of 23 Arena to to talk to him on Friday I think there was a exclusive he had there so go good get there by Kevin and
11:07
like saying it was he was like oh I just wish they knew the truth like okay tell the truth then tell us what's happening
11:13
like unless there's something nefarious or something going on why can't you say what happened you could or at the very
11:20
least say you know what it was a personal decision things went down I don't want to talk about that's that not like oh If Only They knew the truth yeah
11:27
like I guarantee you this fan base nobody hates the Flyers more than Flyers
11:33
fans if the Flyers front office actually [ __ ] something up and screwed this kid over I guarantee you cutter 95 plus
11:41
percent of this fan base would have your back in criticizing this Administration like but if you don't tell us we're just
11:48
going to think you're being a stuck up kid if you have if if they were in the wrong if the Flyers were in the wrong I
11:55
guarantee you this fan base would have your back like it took took a while for lindross but it's the same thing the
12:02
Flyers really screwed him over people were mad but in retrospect it's like
12:07
yeah he kind of had a point yeah that's that's a different story kind of more magnified but yeah cutter like
12:13
especially because it was likely Chuck Fletcher was like all right we're gonna get you on the team the flyers fired him
12:21
the locker room wasn't great so they're like all right we're not bringing you into this locker room right now where it's cha chaos whatever you can go to
12:28
the Phantoms if you want you'll be on the roster next year and then he ghosted them how do you ghost John mclair
12:33
Patrick Sharp two two very very nice guy for the Flyers here but yeah cutter I mean I guess good on him when the
12:40
spotlight was off him on Sunday two goals including the overtime winner in uh Carol here yeah Carolina was the
12:49
biggest betting favorite of the year they were um minus 500 which I know it doesn't mean much to you but like
12:55
normally likeus 200 is like a big favorite minus 300 is hug like minus 500
13:00
is incredible ER it's like 80 80 90% implied probability I I I looked on
13:06
money Puck cuz I checked money Puck for starting goalies and it was like 81.1% to
13:13
19.9% like it was it was just an out that didn't add up to 100 but you know
13:18
what I mean it was it was it was just a a lopsided matchup and uh the
13:25
Ducks they must have had some rage to work out and took it out on Dr T's team
13:31
yeah minus 500 implies 83% chance of winning there so yeah Ducks didn't really have a chance especially on a
13:36
back to back canes were rested but I want to shout out too Kan kanes are
13:42
really good uh J JB phy is he's a big on big on Blue Sky there he's big in the uh
13:47
Brad street hockey Discord get in there if you're not already I don't think we had it public last time we recorded the
13:53
podcast so make sure you get in there a lot of good conversation going on in there he uh he skied out C go stats in
13:59
big game so uh this Saturday no points first game against Philly no points first five NHL games no points uh
14:07
college hockey championship final in which he said they're gonna be crying on the other side no points and then the uh
14:14
World Juniors final which you know he had a great tournament they won gold zero points in the final game so he he
14:20
comes up small so perfect for him to be out there in Anaheim you can enjoy the weather enjoy playing at 10:30 eastern
14:27
time when no one can watch and you know enjoy whatever that type of rebuild is because even looking at the Ducks team
14:34
like yeah they get some good wins here and there but we saw there on Saturday night sure Carlson a decent player
14:40
McTavish can be good but it's it's rough out there imagine McTavish in a Flyer's
14:47
uniform please that would be that would that would be beautiful that' be beautiful he looks like a flyer too McTavish what a he'd fit right in also I
14:56
I the the Jersey matchup on Saturday night the ducks in those orange are just awful and like the Flyers shouldn't have
15:02
to switch to their blacks but I guess that would have been the only other option since the Ducks don't really have an alternate but show it yeah it just
15:11
showed how much better the Flyers orange is that that that's all that was there oh for sure I I mean the Ducks should be
15:16
playing in their eggplant colored yeah uniforms that purple is excellent super
15:22
underutilized color in many NHL or any sport uniform I love
15:29
the teal of the shark uniforms and the Kraken as well like those are really good color schemes Ducks should have
15:36
embraced that uh blue purple West Coast Vibe you know yeah I have it I have a
15:43
Mighty Ducks hat around here somewhere and at the game my wife was like don't you have a duck hat I'm like yeah it's a mudy duck hat though it's okay it's fine
15:49
it's it's not this it's it's it's it's not I'm not supporting this clown here give us the purple did I tell you I
15:55
watched uh the Mighty Ducks for the first time last summer all of them oh just the first one just the first one
16:00
all right well I've never seen it before maybe we'll do like a like a movie watch along over the summer or something we get we can get jpo involved Steve those
16:07
guys love uh movies so uh maybe we'll get something something going sure I'm in I'm game all right is that enough
16:13
should we cut it with cutter oh cut it with cutter but I do want to touch more on the game Sam erson shut out I mean he
16:19
doesn't challenge too much but good good for him to get back 22 saves on 22 shots
16:25
to get his percentage second game back from injury second game back and didn't look didn't look awful against the Stars
16:31
we didn't really get a chance to talk about that game but Jamie Dale very soft he admitted he was soft so good to see
16:37
him bounce back on Saturday some bad bounces for the Flyers against the stars there um see save percentage up to 888
16:44
now hopefully that can uh that can improve a bit for ersen uh Ule LEL looked pretty good there on a line with
16:52
cier and meof I believe is that new line they have the uh he looked he was fine
16:59
his numbers were not great no uh they got the fourth line back together lot in
17:04
paling hathway I like that and then they got a frost tippet and conky Frost got a goal off his skate which of course is
17:11
very Morgan Frost likee uh yeah so that was good there on Saturday night uh one
17:17
thing torella said about Thursday night that is that he wishes he called a timeout after that second goal in the
17:23
first period but but he would he wanted to just call a timeout to Cal the guys down and didn't want to do that because
17:29
the arena would be blasting music and he'd have to yell so they'd hear him so like he was kind of like going against
17:35
the production team there but no I I thought he was gonna say say like you can't challenge them but I forgot now
17:41
challenge is just a penalty not losing your time out but they weren't gonna they weren't going to beat the Stars
17:46
anyway stars were were rolling and one of the best teams in the league it was a Revenge game after the Flyers
17:52
embarrassed them last season yeah yes yes it was I just pulled up willix cel's
17:58
numbers from the Anaheim game 46.15% and a 26.06.2012
18:29
it it was it's hilarious that these two mediocre rebuilding clubs suddenly became must-watch television also I
18:37
would just like to say for all those haters who were like oh that's two points we didn't need in the in the in
18:43
the standings now we're gonna guess what because the Ducks beat the canes they
18:49
Leap Frog the flyers in the uh draft order so the Flyers are back at sixth
18:56
worst in the league and Anaheim is at seventh course so it all worked out it
19:01
it's all going to even out the flyer is going to be between 8th and 12th again probably but we'll see what happens
19:08
after this the fires big big test on here Monday night against the Panthers
19:14
then go into Columbus who have been an amazing team at home in the playoffs right now in a playoff spot they've been
19:20
surprising a ton of people I mean they got a busy busy strats coming up they got four and six and two days off three
19:26
and four two days off three and four two days off and then four and seven that's uh 14 games in 27 days until the four
19:33
nations break for them all all but two against Eastern Conference teams all against some pretty good teams I mean
19:39
Florida's a play reigning reigning Cup champions at Columbus at the Islanders they're struggling but that's always a
19:45
tough game at the devils like it's it's it's tough here that that Islanders game
19:52
both teams are going to do their best to win that game z00 it's going to be like
19:57
it was like it was last year that I went up to a I went up to that game with with with a group of some Islanders fans and
20:03
and it's like it was that was a shut out game where I think Tyson Forster scored
20:08
the only goal in the shootout to get a get a one- nothing win it was it was
20:13
also the game that phly had like a watch party at a bar for and I went to that and it was just
20:21
like boy this sure is a flyers Islanders hockey game oh I hate the Islanders so
20:27
much man so much I just
20:34
God I don't mind the capitals anymore I was watching them the other day and I'm like oh they're kind of fun yeah I I
20:40
enjoy how much you hate the Islanders like like yeah the capitals are probably my least hated team besides Columbus
20:47
Columbus is just whatever but it's like yeah Pittsburgh Rangers Devils Islanders like capitals are fine I guess like
20:53
there's not much there not much there to hate even like the 2016 playoff series where Tor got hurt and Mason was not
21:01
great or allowed that long goal like you couldn't hate them after that so uh but
21:06
big news today in uh the world of Philadelphia Stadium uh news here there's there's apparently going to be a
21:13
new arena in South Philadelphia the Sixers plans for their Arena on Market East fell through so a new joint arena
21:20
with the Flyers and Sixers expected to be in South Philly in 2031 also going to
21:26
try to have a WNBA team with that hope a pwhl team uh we were talking before not
21:32
sure if it's going to replace the fog or they're going to have two also not really sure where it's going to be
21:37
because like they normally just like like veteran stadium was right across from the from from where the bank is now
21:43
the spectrum's right where xly live was so like maybe they'll put it in one of those parking lots and and like keep
21:48
rotating it around because I don't know of a ton of other land available in South Phil yeah I mean just one of the parking
21:56
lots why not I saw were plans to put in a parking garage or like a multi-level
22:01
parking scheme thank God like aren't they AR
22:07
aren't they like planning to develop that whole area with like apartments and shopping centers and stuff and not just
22:12
be like empty parking lots for three quarters of the year yeah that that's the plan I mean we'll see if that ever
22:18
ever comes for fruition I imagine that maybe will'll be closer to the casino and try to have stuff around there but
22:24
but who knows I think it's a whole issue with like zoning down there and whatnot they have to get get a permission and
22:30
stuff there hey they'll figure it out I'm just living to see all of these City councilors being like I feel so used by
22:38
the billionaires and I'm like duh that's exactly what they do that's what
22:43
billionaires do that's that's what they do but so I have a question for you yes
22:48
how many playoff rounds will the Flyers win before this new Stadium's built o
22:54
before 2031 yeah um oh more or less than like
23:00
three he playoff rounds um I love your gambling podcast
23:06
over under a set at three um
23:11
boy I'm gonna say I'm The Optimist I'm gonna say over it it's probably G it's gonna be
23:18
right around three like because they're goingon to make the playoffs the first time and lose in the first round then like I mean hopefully they get the
23:25
trajectory where they lose the first round win one and then then can win like two or like something going on but let
23:31
me look at the Flyers um list of seasons the last Playoff round they won was 2012
23:38
against the Penguins that was a first round exit they won I think one round this season before that against the
23:44
Sabres before getting swept so they've won two rounds since um no I forgot
23:50
about the uh Canadians round in the bubble there so they've won three rounds since making the St in the Cup Final so
23:56
three rounds in the next six years would be amazing what if they just win three and one go they just make a run to the
24:03
final and lose why not win four in one though let wi four and one
24:08
oh that'd be cool yeah I'm not riding that high yeah have you thought any more
24:14
about the whole John Gibson thing after that game hell no not after
24:20
that game after after having two days to sit on the conversation that we had with uh with Steve and quigs and Thomas about
24:27
it I say no yeah it it probably doesn't make sense it also helps that ersen had a
24:33
shut out so like he as long as 's healthy I feel like Gibson ersen could
24:38
be a great tandem but that's not where the Flyers are right now like if the flyers in a year or two and Gibson was
24:43
still this age maybe but in a year or two who knows how good Gibson's still gonna be and all that so the athletic
24:51
this morning I think released an article it was U the 20242 NHL gold te Anonymous
24:59
panel of coaches and goalies rate all 32 starters guess who was the last place
25:07
goalie well the Flyers were last but also in that they said like they asked
25:12
Scouts and people about foto as not about ersen like right who who who did this poll do you have it up in front of
25:18
you I do um like who did they ask yeah like no
25:24
like who wrote the article oh it was uh Jesse Granger
25:29
okay all right yeah he's not really I think he's Vegas maybe or used to be Vegas maybe he's in Canada somewhere now
25:35
but wasn't he a goalie like isn't that his thing he was a goalie at some point not professionally his profile picture
25:42
is a goalie cover goalies in the golden knights for the athletic yeah there you go um yeah in the Ivan fedot blurb they
25:50
he writes uh looking back we should have pulled more experts on Sam Aron who has proven to be Philadelphia's best goalie
25:57
we didn't collect a full panel of grades for the 25-year-old but several coaches said they prefer him as the starter even
26:02
before the season began quote uh from a goalie coach Aron I do think is pretty good he's a structured goalie who gives
26:09
you consistency I don't think he'll ever be a goalie who is going to transcend but he's a tier four
26:15
starter yeah he he's not gonna be a starting goalie on a team that wins a
26:20
Playoff round or probably a team that even makes the playoffs but he can be a 30 game starter or 4040 if you want to
26:27
split it down equally like that's pretty much what he's been the past few years and hopefully he can stay healthy this
26:34
year because he's now been on IR three times with a guard injury yeah I I say he's probably a 1B at this point I think
26:41
his play and potential is like one a but the durability concerns make me think he
26:47
can't handle more than like 40 to 45 games in a season so he's probably just going to have to be the second in a
26:53
tandem um which is fine you know I I still think the league is it it at least
26:58
in the regular season is trending that direction um but you know and then when
27:04
you get in the playoffs you just ride whoever's got the hot hand yeah which can be tough like I I also I've seen
27:11
some complaint set slash questions about this on social media like what is a 1A what's a 1B what's a two a onea is the
27:18
guy you trust more in a tandem a 1B is the backup who you don't hate going in
27:23
there he's not like he's not like a clear number two so like like Washington is a perfect example right now Lan
27:29
Thompson Charlie lingren they're they're both one a honestly right now I mean Thompson's been a lot better by the
27:35
numbers but I trust both of them I mean until yesterday or two days ago it was a
27:42
even split literally every other game they were alternating between lingren Thompson lingren Thompson uh lingren got
27:48
injured on Friday I believe so Thompson went in in relief and then played the
27:53
next day on the road and played amazing um but I think that might be either the
27:59
first or second time this season that they went to the same goalie two games in a row and it was only because of an
28:05
injury that they felt it was necessary um Boston before they traded wmark also
28:13
that tandem carried that team for a long time uh Vegas until the playoffs though until the playoffs with Boston was the
28:19
was example where yeah it worked in the regular season but like come playoff time how how much of a leash do you give
28:26
the guy that you think is slly better if he has one bad start like do you give the backup a start but yeah Vegas was
28:32
perfect example how they had Aiden Hill come out of nowhere and to win the cup there also um I mean Swan was fantastic
28:41
last year in the Bruins playoff run Boston just couldn't score which is the
28:46
same problem they have now funny how that works out um
28:52
but I I think Swan did perfectly fine in the playoff as a starter I think more
28:57
about Florida when they snuck into the playoffs on the wild card on the back of Alex lion going on a heater and I think
29:03
they gave lion the first like three games of the series and he I think he got one win and two losses and he looked
29:11
kind of shaky and then they put bosi back in and well the rest is history they make that run to the final and lose
29:16
to Vegas so you have because it's a seven game series I think you have a bit more
29:22
leeway on when to switch things up um and I think it helps to
29:28
if your team had been swapping goalies for the regular season like if you have
29:35
a 65 game starter and he has two bad games and you put the backup in think of what that does to the rest of the roster
29:42
confidence or the intangibles you know that that has an impact I'm sure it does
29:48
but uh if you've been going 50-50 all season and game three you switch up your
29:54
goalies I don't think the roster is going to have that like oh you're pulling them all ready kind of reaction
30:00
well la I mean perfect example last year in the Western Conference Final I believe Stuart Skinner started 57 games
30:06
in the regular season Cal Pickard started 20 and they bench Skinner for Pickard and that completely turned
30:11
Skinner around so goalies are goalies are like like Voodoo it's just like it's
30:16
extremely weird because now bski people are like like oh definite Hall of Famer and before this past season or if the
30:23
Panthers blew it after going up through nothing like oh he's a bust why are you paying him $10 million that that proves
30:28
why you shouldn't pay for goalies and all that stuff yeah but
30:34
uh I I if if Sam erson is just this team's one B for the next five six years
30:41
fine I'm I'm fine with that and he can he can serve in a onea role when bjis
30:47
and zagen come over and start pushing for games it's I'm not fussed about this
30:53
team's goalie like goal tending for the future they need a goalie they'll get one he's
30:59
25 right now going to be 26 next October he's under contract what through next
31:07
season he's an RFA after that so they'll give him probably a short short three-year deal two threeyear deal there
31:13
to to be the be the starter until uh till those guys get ready but bringing this goalie talk back to the Flyers uh
31:19
fredman also mentioned on Friday that he could see kosoff getting sent back down
31:25
just to get into some games he has not been sent back down yet there were some uh some pauses there when he wasn't at
31:31
morning skate on Saturday but then he came out they're running that three goalie drill and stuff like I I just
31:37
wonder what's going on there because foto's the backup now that that just seems to be what it is and I guess
31:45
they're they don't want to risk losing fedotov to the AHL and also they promised him most likely that he'd be on
31:52
the nhr roster and they don't want to piss off Kos off in case ERS gets hurt then you have to go with photo
31:59
and or whoever yeah if you s down kof he's like all right I'm leaving and URS
32:05
gets hurt you have foto and then teams can hold you over a bucket like be like
32:10
all right trade for a goalie yeah I mean for what it's worth I think fedotov was fine in his last two starts they were
32:16
both against the Leafs right like the numbers don't look great at the end of the game but he looked okay he he's what
32:23
you would want in a number two a backup he gave the team a chance to win but guess what the Toronto Maple Leaves have
32:30
Austin Matthews and William neander and Mitch Marner and the Flyers don't and that's just sometimes what it boils down
32:37
to so I'm fine with him being the number two for now also I'm kind of sick of
32:42
this whole kosov drama like dude if yeah if you're GNA go home go home we've seen
32:49
now what you can do at the NHL level you're not ready like I don't know man maybe maybe
32:56
take a hint yeah something with the Flyers goalies numbers that that I kind of want to potentially dig into more and
33:02
also might just be like an eye test type of thing because I know the numbers look bad with the goal safe above expecting
33:08
or whatnot but like the Flyers block a lot of shots and like due to their defensive structure a lot of shots
33:15
either miss the net or dunk it through or Thomas brought this up in the slack like sometimes maybe they're screen too
33:20
much on it like so that could be an issue there I mean fedotov has been the best Flyers goalie at five on five in
33:27
ter of the the advanced numbers here it's just he doesn't look as good as you
33:32
think he could be he's always at a position multiple times a game I'll say it again I'll say it time and time again
33:39
here stay in the crease if if they if they can convince fedotov to stay in the
33:44
crease go down in the butterfly even if you don't know where the puck is just like back up like you're big enough to
33:50
to cover the net yeah also I just saw on uh Twitter that tonight is dollar dog night for the
33:56
Panthers game yes [ __ ] I would love to go do that um tickets are cheap go
34:03
ahead no got better things to do you got better things to do than watch watch the
34:09
Flyers loose the Panthers while eating dogs it's cold it's catg
34:17
oh God damn it that's good are you Mor are you more sick of
34:22
Alexy kosov has that reached the level of how sick you have been either right
34:28
now or previously with the Morgan Frost talk how do those compare
34:34
o I'm it's different I'm sick of Alexa kosov as a
34:41
concept but I'm sick of Morgan Frost um just discussion
34:48
and talking about it because like buddy the gore you the the gore the
34:54
goal you scored wasn't even an a a shot attempt you just kind of stood there and that he
35:01
was in good position he he went to the slot you know dirty dirty but good as as JJ says dirty but good we but he's the
35:10
skill player we like a dirty but good goal isn't his thing I I don't know I'm
35:15
just I'm over it he's a pending RFA like it's time man um for kosov I'm
35:23
just like dude you signed a contract through a fit you've kind of leveraged your way
35:31
into the organization that has prided itself on meritocracy fell flat on your face and
35:37
now won't deal with the consequences of maybe being sent to the AHL like maybe
35:42
the Flyers are just like hoping someone will trade for him and give like a second round pick but I don't know man
35:48
he clearly hasn't proven to be worth anything at the NHL level I mean kosol
35:53
Plus for Gibson I guess would make sense and the Ducks you know give do stall and net let kosoff play one more year in the
36:00
KO or whatever and see what they got but then the Flyers are giving up on kosoff who with seasoning could be a part of a
36:06
tandem you really never know sure could um yeah I just am like dude it ain't all
36:15
about you like yeah we we don't know what's going on behind the scenes let's be real we don't know what's going on
36:21
behind the scenes but we're speculating this yeah this is yeah at least at least Frost has the right attitude about it
36:27
like last year when he got healthy scratched he went into torch and they talked about it and he had a a good good
36:32
stretch after that also he's been amazing against the Ducks I think he has like a four or five game point streak
36:37
against against these awful teams had a great game last year against the Coyotes with that sick goal like I was gonna say
36:43
it's a shame that the coyotes no longer exist because that's the only team that Morgan Frost seems to wake up and play
36:50
against yeah yeah it just seems like with frost like the writings on the wall like you said he's a he's a pending RFA
36:57
the Flyers can't really trade him in season because he's their best center I mean Noah Kates
37:04
might be their best allaround center but Morgan Frost is their best offensive Center um def fight despite the fact you
37:10
might think he's offensive not offensive um yeah the riding seems to be on the wall there with frost I also wonder if
37:18
it's gonna get to the point with farbe where we're kind of sick of this because like he's always thrown into these trades 14 points in 42 games um Saturday
37:26
was his first Game ending an Iron Man streak I didn't realize that was his first game as a healthy scratch as not
37:33
playing at all under John torella I mean shaved his head that didn't work had a
37:38
fight that didn't really work it's just uh it's tough to see it's tough to see I want to ask you about that fight because
37:45
his reasoning was uh I think I think Charlie put this really well on the PHL y pod is
37:51
that oh the his reasoning was oh the the arena was kind of quiet and I needed to get something going so I dropped the
37:58
gloves and the way Charlie put it is he's thinking like a bottom sixer that's a bottom Sixers role and we need F to be
38:04
a top sixer my question is is this a Chicken and the Egg scenario like he's
38:11
been asked to play in the bottom six so he's adopted the bottom six role because that's the role he's been asked to play
38:18
or did he previously adopt the role of a bottom sixer and has now ended up there
38:24
because his mentality is that of a bottom sixer like which which do you think would have come first do you think
38:29
he's in the bottom s he's playing like a bottom sixer because that's where he's been assigned or is he like was he
38:37
assigned there because of his thinking do you know what I mean I I completely understand what you mean I I and I also
38:43
completely think it's the former I think he's like all right torts Dro me down to the bottom six here on the fourth line with Hathaway you know Hathaway's been
38:50
providing energy let me go out there and try to provide some energy and and it it was great it was a good fight I was sh I was shocked to see him fight it got the
38:57
cow going it wasn't the best fight out there but like he didn't lose and that's that's that's all you want to see like
39:03
it's and haway hasn't really fought much at all this season if at all I'm trying
39:08
to think I know Delia's had some he's hurt Seer might have a fight here or there Eric Johnson had that fight like
39:14
but like oh yeah Coots had a fight Coots had a fight yeah I think TK had one at one point um the the only hathway fight
39:23
that sticks out in my mind is from last year and he beat the absolute ever loving [ __ ] out of Dylan cousins just
39:31
just demolished him it was not even close so Garner haway does not drop the
39:36
gloves that often but you see that when he does he wins like he he's just he'll
39:42
he'll take you straight down he gar g halfway fought against uh Marcus Felino
39:49
back on December 14th in Minnesota and then he had seven penalty minutes against the Leafs he fought um
39:57
Jake McCabe in oh yeah on January 5th yeah he just fought what last week so
40:03
quickly we forget there oh yeah because he wasn't really a fight he just MC lost his balance and crashed down
40:08
unfortunately that's right and he fell on his head that was brutal yeah did CER
40:14
fight this year I don't think he has oh he might have one uh yeah I'm not sure he's been he's
40:20
been banged up up quite a bit he only has 16 penalty minutes on the year so imagine lady Bing canidate Nick seeler
40:28
imagine that's eight miners no he uh sharks and Blue Jackets he had five minutes of penalties um barklay goodro
40:35
against the Sharks and then Matthew Olivier against the blue Jacks I do remember I remember that one I remember
40:41
that being a fight at the very least how about them Blue Jackets how about them how about the be yeah I'm I'm happy for
40:49
them I hope they get to the playoffs it would be a very nice like bit of on a
40:55
shitty year it'd be a nice thing to have for them yeah but going back to farab like I don't think he was he was playing
41:02
with the bottom six mindset previously like looking at his underlying numbers and I know people don't always like to look at that and the finishing and
41:09
whatnot but like looking at his individual expected goals per 60 uh his
41:14
career high prior to the season was 083 back in the 2020 2021 season last year
41:22
was 72 this year 087 best in his career by far percentage 5.48 this these are
41:29
all at five on five numbers the Natural stat trick prior Seasons 12 13 17 17 as
41:35
a shooting percentage like that he was he wasn't scoring on the top line but him Couture and kkny they were
41:42
generating chances and it felt like it was only a matter of time I would like to see them back together but tippet and
41:48
conne do have some good chemistry now I love it and I don't necessarily want to see tippet back with mov so I guess that
41:55
leaves that leaves the lines as they are but yeah unless you break up unless you
42:00
break up the Kate's line I don't think it up yet no not yet if they have they
42:06
haven't even had a bad game I don't think what how are they against um um
42:13
the Ducks I I don't I hardly looked at the advanced number I don't think anyone on
42:18
that line scored against Anaheim so no they didn't no maybe they were bad it's
42:24
not all about goals it's not all about goals but yeah that I mean looking at how the lines are
42:30
lixel ctor mov like LEL can provide some energy mitkov can hopefully be you know
42:35
a little bit rejuvenated after last game but at least had the fourth line back together it's just about finding the
42:41
mixing matches matching F finding the right pieces out there and we've said it before the Flyers don't have ranked
42:47
hierarchy first second third fourth line they just kind of have a fourth line and
42:53
then three lines that play hockey at varying intervals of the game like they don't have that they don't have like a
43:00
Nathan mckin in line that plays 22 minutes a night or whatever I do wonder what the uh matchups torz goes for
43:07
against the Panthers will be by the time you guys are listening you you'll know and you know what happened but looking at the uh numbers from last game the
43:14
katees line in 10 minutes together scoring chances were 9-2 uh shot
43:19
attempts 13-6 so the generary chances just didn't uh didn't get any finish there who's who's playing with um
43:28
who's playing with cots today it's mechkov and lixel right so I don't know do you put I think you I
43:35
think that's the barov matchup probably and then the K against barov
43:41
you want Kates against barov well then who the hell is gonna mov you want mechkov against Matt kachuck no you want
43:48
KK against kachuck so you'd put the frost conne tippit line against Sam
43:54
Bennett Matt kachuck and cardiv py I mean there's no good matchups Joe there's no good matchups with one of the
44:01
worst teams in the league against against the Panthers but I know well they've been they've been sliding they've had some they've been
44:08
alternating wins and losses in their past like I think six games or so that game against Boston the other day that
44:14
was wild did you watch end of that one yes I did that was so good Reinhardt with like 1.8 seconds left on the clock
44:21
puts that puck in the net to take it to overtime and then a fleeky play gets bosted in the win damn dude that was
44:27
I love that game yeah and the other game was the 751 in Philly where the Flyers
44:33
came back to take a lead and then blew it was kosoff in the net for that one kosoff may have been in that one and
44:39
then the the first one was the uh shootout loss for the Flyers in in Florida I think that may have been
44:45
fedotov so I mean the Flyers have played the the Panthers relatively tough I mean
44:50
it's not worth talking about because the game's in in a few hours here but we'll see we'll see I I mean it's funny
44:58
because the Flyers beat the Panthers last season too by proxy that means they won a Stanley Cup
45:05
but for some reason the Flyers just have the Panthers number like the Panthers were rolling last
45:12
season Flyers were able to get like one maybe two wins against them um they've
45:19
hung with them both times this season like it's funny how such a dominant team
45:25
just has one mediocre team is their Kryptonite for some reason the Flyers are the Kryptonite of the Florida Panthers like it's just it's wild how
45:33
that kind of stuff works out yeah it was a Spencer Knight in that 75 game so it's it is Bob tonight so that's not as good
45:39
for the Flyers but getting back to the trade stuff I wanted to just talk about the uh the there's some tradeboard stuff
45:45
out there uh last week coming into this week Rasmus are looking at TSN the
45:50
athletic and daily Faceoff Rasmus rolina is the only player on all three Scott
45:56
laen is on TSN and the athletic um and then daily Faceoff also has farbe and
46:02
frost but no lot in there so who do we think's the most likely to get moved it has to be risto right I I my money's on
46:09
risto um do you think it's better than better than 5050 that he gets
46:15
moved um depends how naations go yeah and
46:21
there's not many right-handed demand out there I know I know David saard is a guy
46:26
I know proov left-handed can play Both Sides who's uh oh UA now proov plays
46:32
both sides now that's hilarious because he was so immovable on
46:38
the left side of the Flyers defense core maybe he doesn't I don't know I does he does play the right side in Columbus
46:45
sometimes so he yeah he's listed there right now considering his personal views the fact that he bats for both sides is
46:50
a little it's interesting it's interesting it's interesting curious peculiar uh anyway
46:57
no I I think there is a market for risto but as we've talked about before the
47:03
Flyers are not compelled to move him he has two years left on his contract like if they have a price in mind might as
47:10
well hold out and fredman I think today was like um he talked about how he
47:16
mentioned that the Flyers were holding fast for a first for lton and that that would wouldn't come through and
47:22
apparently there was a lot of push back from many sources like yo he held out
47:27
for a first for Shawn Walker and he got it so don't put it past Brier and the Flyers to just hold out until someone
47:35
offers what they're asking for so it's different this time like Walker had to
47:40
be moved he wasn't gonna he was walking in the summer H um also take a shot because we had the
47:48
Shawn Walker watch last year um yes we'll have risto watch this year but uh
47:54
risto because he has term on his contract and the cap looks like it's going to go up a
47:59
lot why not just wait if they can't make it work now hold off till the summer and
48:05
do it then maybe risto gets traded at the draft again wouldn't that be
48:10
something that that would be something I I I think yeah I think it's better than 50-50 He gets moved probably 60% I'd be
48:17
at right now by the deadline or by by the deadline by the deadline I I think
48:22
um by next season I think it's probably closer to5 % yeah 90 like I I I think Dallas
48:31
could be a a destination for them they traded for tanv last year uh he's gonna be playing with henin and Lindell for
48:38
team Finland at four nations my only concern my only concern with Dallas Jim
48:43
nil does not give up assets for rentals like that yeah so I think the Flyers
48:50
would be able to get a young roster player from the Stars Wyatt Johnson I [ __ ] hope Wyatt why Johnson but like
48:58
I'm not sure who else they have Maverick Bor I'm not sure not sure what he would be worth but they have they have a bunch
49:05
of young players like if they're going for it this year this is their last year with Jamie Ben Matthew Shane's on his
49:11
last year of his deal as well so you know they could try to get Jamie benck up if they if they feel like they can
49:16
really go for it but what would extremely piss off Flyers fans is if
49:21
they trade risto to Vancouver in a three- team trade and someone else is
49:27
Pon oh I had thought of that oh that's beautiful so what do the get um I mean
49:35
maybe Patterson goes to like Minnesota and they get Rossy or Patterson goes to Buffalo and they get cousins or Anaheim
49:41
and they get mcdavis like something like that well maybe not McTavish but
49:47
zis I want to see him back on the ice first from his uh same Tor Tor meniscus or whatever he had yeah risto we think
49:55
is gonna get traded um Scott Laden I I I I I don't know I I don't know if I ever
50:02
think he's going to get traded I know Toronto is the one team that he's been linked to he's from Toronto I think that
50:08
could make sense that could be the one place he would be willing to go um I
50:13
don't think the Flyers are gonna move him I it would take a hall no but we have we have to make content Joe come on
50:19
we have to we have to talk about this um I was looking on the flyer subreddit because they met brought up the uh Scott
50:25
Laden thing someone was talking about how Toronto has no first round this year but they have a next year also have Eon
50:32
Cowen Fraser Minon and Nick Robertson interesting if they traded for for Cowen or Minon somehow you know get get
50:40
uh yeah get get someone up there get a center I think that's the Flyers the
50:46
Flyers main goal by next season is is get a center I don't think they're going to do it in season unless as Brier said
50:52
before if something crops up we'll pull the trigger but it wouldn't makes sense for I don't think other teams just
51:00
because there's so few teams that are truly out of it and might even be fewer at the deadline yeah yeah it's like
51:07
Chicago they have no one to trade sharks no one to trade PRS are who knows what
51:12
they're doing Buffalo is the one team where yeah they're out of it Buffalo Anaheim Seattle Seattle but I'm not sure
51:19
if they'd move like uh or Shane Wright or or someone like that and then the Flyers right now who are who are they as
51:26
well but yeah that's more of an offseason move farbe we talked about during the happy hour his value is way
51:32
too low I don't think a team would trade for him and frost we talked about the writing's on the wall but they can't
51:38
trade him as far as faraby goes I'm with torrs I'm not giving up on
51:43
him like I think there's still completely agree completely agree I'm not giving up on him he's got enough
51:50
term left the contract isn't I mean with the way he's playing million it's not good but you know it they have time to
51:59
figure it out and by the time they figure it out his contract won't be that much of a a burden because the cap will
52:05
have gone up so like I'm not trying to rush away from Joel faraby I don't no
52:11
plus he's the only natural left Winger in like who has top nine potential like
52:18
why why we've said we're not stripping this team to the studs trading faraby for
52:24
like a second round pick would be they wouldn't do that I think they they would move him as a part of a package
52:30
for a roster player or a center right speaking of packages I feel like we could see like Aristo and lton traded
52:37
together Allah orov and hathway to Boston a few years ago I know I know they were both free agents back then and
52:44
risto and lton both have term but like Vancouver could be could be a good spot for them get get some leadership there
52:49
with lton and get the uh defenseman they want with risto but just you know just throwing it out there I I'm not opposed
52:57
to it like make it happen make it happen uh anything else you want to you
53:04
want to touch on before we get into our predictions and the tank ofon well we
53:09
brought up Vancouver um folks if Danny Brier doesn't end up
53:15
with Elias Patterson and it's clear that there was no shot that he could have navigated a three team trade or even
53:22
just a two team trade don't don't rake him over the C for that [ __ ] like sometimes it just
53:28
doesn't work like what do what do these people want
53:35
the Flyers to do like there be like oh pressure is on the Flyers front office to do what to do what get creative like
53:41
get oh get creative it's not a it's not a video game where you can just put in bunch of assets get the bar up to what
53:47
it is and get them to accept like there's so many different things going on who knows if they even want P who
53:54
knows if p is truly even a available if they're shopping Miller more like because it doesn't make sense for them to trade Pon like
54:01
there's it's a rebuild it is a rebuild to steal Joe's line here this is what a
54:07
rebuild looks like this is what we're doing it's the middle of the Season there's not much to talk about we're going to talk about trade stuff for the
54:13
next two months now and then a few weeks of no trade stuff and then trade stuff for the whole off season so plenty of
54:20
stuff to uh get with over the summer but for now we'll see if if Saturday was the
54:27
Flyers team or if Thursday against the Stars was the Flyers team moving forward I feel like that's that's basically what
54:32
we want to see and in a few months we'll get to start talking my favorite prospects and draft baby I I do have one
54:39
quick question for you yes would you rather have the Flyers draft ignoring players available ignoring names in this
54:46
draft a 1C or a
54:52
1D oh I think I go
54:57
over defense I know I know Jonesy said from the get-go we're going to build this team from the blue line now they've
55:04
done a pretty good job of that so far and in my mind you can do defense by committee a lot more yeah I also I'm not
55:13
sure because this has come up before like exactly what comprises a quote unquote number one defenseman is it a
55:21
guy who plays a lot of minutes is it a guy who is a special teams Merchant and just okay at five on five is it a guy
55:29
who is an expert penalty killer like I like is it one who does all of those
55:34
things there's only like two defensemen in the league who do all of those things and it's kale marar and Victor Hedman
55:41
like I love K marar or Quinn Hughes play on the penalty go like Victor Victor
55:46
hman is like the the One D you want to point to exactly but guess what he's the
55:51
future Hall of Famer those don't just like crop up I I see teams
55:57
win by doing it by committee a lot more uh Vegas I know petrangelo in his prime
56:05
was your quintessential number one defenseman who ran that power play Shay Theodore who runs the second unit now
56:12
Noah Hanahan like they that's just kind of who's the number one defenseman that
56:19
you can point to and say that guy is the number one on Florida last year Aaron eblad is a first overall pick but brand
56:26
mour ran the power play you know Gustav forsling is an incredible defenseman
56:32
he's not very offensively oriented but he's a top pair guy because he's so good at defense like I but when you point to
56:40
a cup winning team who is the Vegas number one Center eel who is the number one Center for Florida barov the
56:46
Penguins Crosby Tampa Bay Bren Point like or stamp Coast depending on how
56:53
they slotted their line but yeah um yeah you you need a one to win a cup and
57:00
you have to draft like Artic I did in August it's like large majority of one season in this league were drafted only
57:06
ones that were traded were Jack eel JT Miller if you want to call him a one a
57:12
onec Ryan O'Reilly Ryan O'Reilly he's not a onec though like that's what it is and yeah I had Vegas's page pulled up
57:20
already and seeing the Flyers play against them they have six big defensemen that could be One D on other
57:27
teams petrangelo Shay Theodore Noah hanen BR McNab Zack whitecloud Nick like
57:33
they're big defenseman and that that's what that's what you need and not only that they are quality all of them
57:40
are maybe not he and white cloud as a no
57:46
that's a third pair that's a third pair but both of them are a number five like they're they're both quality third pair
57:53
defenseman and then the rest of the guys are all quality top four guys you know it's there's a lot more of by committee
58:00
ability on the blue line but you can't Center your way by committee like it
58:06
doesn't work um so i' I'd pick one C in the draft how about you I'm I'm fully on
58:11
board with a onc you can you can go out and get a defense Min and free agency
58:17
you can't go out and get a get a onc you can and as we pointed out you can win with depth on the blue line you can't
58:23
win as easily without a onc y and um I mean unless the defenseman is Victor
58:29
Hedman caliber in the draft like I pick a center every day yeah um all right let
58:36
predic predictions for this week we have a Monday tonight against the Panthers
58:41
Tuesday at Columbus Thursday at the Islanders that's a 7:30 start then
58:47
Saturday at the Devils I believe that's a 12:30 start I know that's a that's daytime game there right um tonight uh
58:59
uh I don't know if the Vibes if the Vibes carry I think Florida gets the win
59:07
42 that's pretty much what I was I was gonna go for I I'll go 43 in overtime
59:12
let's let's get a point out of the Flyers against the reigning Stanley Cup champions um 43 shootout actually
59:18
because if it's overtime Flyers have been good in overtime so 4-3 in a shootout in the skulls competition he's
59:23
not the most impactful player but Aaron ebl is not playing tonight so saw that yes maybe that makes a difference okay
59:31
can't hurt can't hurt and then uh Tuesday night in Columbus uh have to think it's photov gets the start there I
59:37
think that's that's like a a five4 shootout loss yeah I think they lose
59:45
that one I don't think it'll I don't think it'll even go to a shootout I think 64 regulation 64 regulation yeah
59:51
that's probably around there uh at the island Columbus's top line I mean Mahan
59:57
is out but yeah vov marenko and shikov
1:00:03
have been pretty oh and Ken Johnson they've been pretty good yeah yeah Columbus has scored six or more goals in
1:00:10
10 of their 43 games so they're especially at home they they all always
1:00:16
high scoring at home um Thursday at the Islanders uh one nothing shootout win
1:00:22
maybe I think that one's going to be z00 no no wins that game man that game gonna
1:00:28
still be going on next time we podcast it's gonna be in the hundredth round of the shootout everyone's gonna be
1:00:33
dripping sweat God damn it you're right it's so annoying um I I think or it's just going
1:00:40
to surprise us and be a 54 overtime win because it could be why not um because
1:00:46
sokin has looked a little shaky I don't know if varlamov is still playing or if he's injured so who
1:00:52
knows and uh Saturday at the devils got I think they lose I think the Devils get
1:00:59
this one five2 that's the that's the exact score
1:01:04
in my head I was gonna say 53 I was like I don't I don't know if the fly was getting three against markstrom's been
1:01:10
insane recently I don't know if you've seen some of these saves he made it Seattle and stuff but I mean he's been
1:01:15
incredible ever since like the first few weeks of the Season he settled in behind his defense and they're uh they're going
1:01:22
to be good watch out for them in the playoffs I they terrify I mean one of my one of my best friends is going to that
1:01:28
game with her family she's from New Jersey but I have converted her into a Flyers fan so couple months ago she got
1:01:34
a flyers hoodie and she's gonna wear that to the game with her entire devil supporting family and she's like her
1:01:40
family are actually like are you really going to wear that and I'm just like yes I love it um also the Flyers um quarter
1:01:48
Century team was announced all right who who is on that
1:01:53
first team Simone G Claude J Mike Richards at defense Eric
1:02:00
de jardan Kimo tein in gold Roman cchm
1:02:06
monic all right second team forwards Danny Brier Sean cier Jacob vek on
1:02:14
defense Chris Pronger Ivan proov in goal Brian bue
1:02:24
B also proov get out of here with that man that's crazy yeah I'm trying to think of who
1:02:30
else I'm trying to think of there any any any snubs on this team uh up there
1:02:36
who do you put him in over though no no G was great in the in the early 2000s there
1:02:41
um defense yeah you don't want to see Pro off there but there's no one really else you you could put there um maybe
1:02:50
like a curn or a samim he's better than Pro over off at
1:02:56
this point I would say yeah I would as well but I wonder when these teams voted on were voted on and uh G finalized or
1:03:04
whatever G yeah ghost Phil Myers Phil Myers play by the way hilarious um
1:03:12
anyway I did a lottery Sim this morning uh it was Pittsburgh number one Islander
1:03:18
second and I just why would you why would you put those vibes out there Joe we got the got
1:03:24
the lottery simulator here up on the YouTube stream make sure you subscribe there subscribe Apple subscribe Spotify
1:03:30
you know all the good stuff leave us a fivar rting and review on Apple if you have not already we do appreciate those
1:03:36
quite a bit and let's run the simulator come on Flyers let's
1:03:43
go I'm getting an uh Chicago then the Islanders the Islanders Flyers down one
1:03:50
spot to seven because the Islanders moved up moved up six so moved up to two [ __ ] the Islanders man I am I lo this
1:03:58
team with the Islanders don't deserve high draft picks because they just ruin any talented player they get they would
1:04:04
pick whatever this draft's version of Scott laon would
1:04:10
be crazy I'm trying to look up the the current mock draft I'm not sure where
1:04:15
the best way to look oh mock draft right here on ton.com there you go Porter Maron James hains Matthew Schaefer
1:04:22
Michael Misa Roger McQueen and then the the Flyers getting Anton Rell a oh Swedish Center there Swedish Center yeah
1:04:29
he kind of underwhelmed I think at World Juniors but like I'd still be
1:04:35
game number eight eight Caleb I feel like the Flyers would go with Dano before they went with a Swedish Center
1:04:42
Ian kind of similar to to jet versus con helenius helus was finish yeah um what
1:04:50
else we I I hope it's Misa I mean Misa might not be a center but still like he
1:04:56
could be real good yeah he could be real plenty of good names on there I mean I haven't dug in yet I know you may have
1:05:02
but like yeah should be a another exciting draft year they also have the Flyers getting kashan
1:05:11
Ates from Barry with pick at 21 I feel like that pick's gonna be later though
1:05:16
no kha hon is like Nick sealer but better like a second pair Nick stealer I
1:05:23
would not that's not a good that's not a ring endorsement Joe at 21 are you kidding me he would
1:05:29
be that kid is born to be a flyer and they have uh the Flyers getting William Moore from the US development program
1:05:36
committed to BC uh with the Oilers pick he might both both of those picks are
1:05:42
getting later because the AVS and Oilers are gonna make deep runs I don't know about that Mackenzie
1:05:49
Blackwood is amazing in in Colorado he's well they signed him to a five-year deal so he better be yeah is I wonder if
1:05:56
William Moore is related to Oliver Moore from the 2023 draft um let see if their page has
1:06:04
