Or he's just an undersized guy that can't skate, and was a product of savoie and geekie?

either way you dont give him an elc to at least see if he can put up numbers in the ahl?whats it hurt? the ahl team is pretty lacking in terms of prospects atm with so many being promoted recently
and we have seen how guys being passed on because of their size can turn out

flyers fans are wild lol ive been reading a lot of articles but honestly they seem so varied some want a rebuild some want to ship out all the prospects for debrincat or pastrnak etc

like for example this "brotherlypuck" article-Flyers’ Best Trade Package for David Pastrnak
Is Kevin Hayes, Tyson Foerster, Bobby Brink and 2023 and 2024 first round picks enough? It’s a pretty decent package for a team that may have their backs against the wall.

carchidi wants to trade konecny and provorov for picks when in the article he states "That appears to be a problem with this organization. They draft fairly well, but their players don’t seem to be able to take the next step to stardom"
we cant develop players and you want to trade the ones we have developed for draft picks in a weak draft?


he even limits the comments that are posted its pretty much just all yes men that agree with him must be so reassuring


imo we need to pick up somebody in FA and not ship out the farm so we have a chance to be competitive and if were not we didnt ship out the farm and get set back 5 years for nothing
trading for a guy like pasta is going to cost too much and hes got 1 year left whats to say he doesnt just walk? leaving a giant void on the roster and prospect pool
and debrincat has a 9million QO when his contract is up thats a lot of fuckin money yeah hes RFA but to QO him its going to cost you lol but at least you can guarantee he would be sticking around
i would love those guys on the flyers but the cost and contract situation is way to sketchy for me for what we would have to give up

The Philadelphia Flyers have agreed to a 4-year deal with John Tortorella

damn 4 years i figure it would be like 1-2 4 years is a decent commitment to a coach guess he sticking around

Lol Torts in Philly coaching a team that struggles to compete. That will be rough.

i think the mindset is he will make players accountable and up the compete level from players who half been slacking
and if not they are probably getting traded tbh

Not a chance a coach with that kind of cache signs a 1-2 year deal.

DONE DEAL: John Tortorella has been named the 23rd head coach in franchise history. https://nhl.com/flyers/news/stanley-cup-champion-20-year-nhl-veteran-named-23rd-head-coach-in-team-history/c-334638228


cam seems pretty excited hes got his former coach back
i think he knows a guy like torts brings player accountability and cam even said that was kind of lacking in the end season interviews

yeah mathew barnaby tweeted shit too
apparently barnaby smoked cigs torts didnt like that so he didnt like torts
and people said the complaints dubinsky had about him was basically "hes playing younger kids over me wtf"

you either like this style coach or you dont he makes players accountable and calls you out if your slackin off
thats why a guy like cam atkinson who gives 110% every shift loves a coach like this and half the flyers players that have been calling it in are about to get a wake up call
