JV Jake and JVR are just lazy asses that will never be worth a $hit. Patrick is a bust, and I don't like picking on disabled people, unless they are poised at the top of an escalator, impeding my way to a fresh supply of donuts. Gus is gone. Im convinced the increase in legal hippy lettuce has Hayes in a half baked stupor. Everyone left is beyond my depth of emotional ability to cope, so I just leave them alone. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GratefulFlyers Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 If Patrick is symptom-free this summer he could come back and Wow people. Let's face it, at this point almost any change in his game will be an improvement. But I see some snarl from him in the scrums. He skates well, has a quick release and his defense is ... not terrible. If he's 100% healthy he may surprise us and become a game-changing player. I realize that's a little pie-in-the-sky right now but the kid is not small, not slow, can shoot and skate...the only thing holding him back is his health from what I can tell. Am I alone in thinking he may have a bright future with the Flyers? Or somewhere in the NHL? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see his game getter better the longer he goes without issues. But whether that can happen, nobody knows. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is our story. We're sticking to it. 1 hour ago, GratefulFlyers said: he could come back and Wow people. Yes. And then we trade him. Good plan. I like it. 1 hour ago, GratefulFlyers said: the kid is not small, not slow, can shoot and skate...the only thing holding him back is his health from what I can tell. Yep that is what we tell them Jets when we trade him there. Great salesman you are. 1 hour ago, GratefulFlyers said: Am I alone in thinking he may have a bright future with the Flyers?

OccamsRazor Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 Wait a minute we have straight up hijacked 2025 Norris trophy winner Cam York's thread. Damn it. So I will not engage in anymore Nolan Patrick conversation on this thread. I blame @CoachX well just because he is the ugliest here. Sounds like a good reason. So Cam York it is. I expect him to make it out of camp next season. It's all I got. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruxpin Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 Last comment on Patrick (until my next one): it's quite possibly he still has something to provide and this coming year is his turn around year with a strong offseason and the confidence of having come off a season without something falling off of him. This is exactly why I move him NOW while there may still be other GMs that believe this is possible and before the inevitable proves otherwise. He's a 4C on this team and that's it. Move him now and possibly get a more useful asset than that while you can and move on. I wish him the best, but I see no fire in him let alone even a facial expression. Now is the time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, but each game this season he looked less like a difference maker and more like just a guy. In his first year there were flashes of talent, and moments where he would really own his shift and change the game's momentum. This season I didn't see the play driving and no one saw production. Everyone (on the Flyers) sucked this year though, so it is not out of the realm of the possible that he improves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting back to Cam York..... lets not overlook Patrick's second season where he didn't do more than his first. I think he had injury issues in both I wonder what number Cam York will wear? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time will tell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCFlyguy Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 Did you see that Caufield man-child goal last night? Dude skated around McNabb like he was Mike Rathje on his third knee replacement.

I completely get the Caufield crush, but let's at least keep this real, huh? And Caufield wouldn't be as good on the Flyers. Just think very briefly about the multitude of ways this organization would cuff and castrate him to prevent him from being as good as he can be 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We sure better hope that York is really the next Brian Leetch, because Caufiled certainly has the makings of a superstar. We wasted the prime of Jake and G together on an incomplete line with no finisher and we had a shot to fix that and we didn’t . Caufiled only played ten NHL games and is now one of the top guys in the playoffs . 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCFlyguy Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 Don't draft higher rated players because we'll screw them up? I'm sure that's a winning strategy. Half this organization's problem is that they think they are smarter than everyone else. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flyers decided they didn't need that. look at montreals roster and our roster and tell me how caulfield would make any difference on the flyers when you have no defense and no goaltending? it would just be two players scoring. fabby and caulfield. he only started in the vegas series, they were playing at a high level without him. instead of complaining and pointing fingers how about learn from montreal on how we can be like them? get big physical forwards, better defense and hopefully hart can play like carry price, it's not about one player. if it's about one player, you are not going anywhere.
