But, even he should be laughing at a ridiculous trade rumor like this. Ya, because ALL the assets he gave up for Ristolainen wasn't worse than that. Oh, yes it was. A lot worse.

You should hold a ceremonial, sacrificial burning of the jersey(even if this trade isn't made) just in hopes of burning off the cancer that Holmgren is to this organization. Sacrifice for the greater good!! Twas just a joke. But i only have one true Flyer jersey i bet you can't guess who's it is. I have many T-Shirts with the emblem on the front and player's name on the back with the number. And truly like these better than an actual jersey. I have many of these types. But only truly one jersey....you'll never guess who's it is though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm telling you these geniuses think they can coach up Risto and turn him into some stud physical shutdown type D man. The problem i think at the end of the day is he isn't very smart. Doesn't think the game well and can't ever tell where the play is going....so brains is the one thing holding this Finnish Frankenstein back really.

OccamsRazor Posted April 7, 2022 Author Share Posted April 7, 2022 After watching the Russian goalies win a lot of games in the division Flyers might fast track theirs by next season. Guy moves well for 6-7. All I know is no need to waste money and role on Martin Jones. Fedotov Sandstrom Ersson Ustimenkov Someone has to be capable.

OccamsRazor Posted April 8, 2022 Author Share Posted April 8, 2022 Well Bobby Brink sets up the GWer in OT and is headed for a shot at the title Saturday night!!! They will take on the winner of Minnesota St. vs Minnesota. I hope i get home in time to watch it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted April 8, 2022 Author Share Posted April 8, 2022 Well Bobby didn't win the Hobey Baker. Gets to face the guy he lost out too. Dryden McKay wins the award. I'd rather Bobby win a national title. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted April 9, 2022 Author Share Posted April 9, 2022 (edited) 1 hour ago, FireDillabaugh said: He's a very good goaltender. His 34 shutouts are especially impressive. And he's an undrafted Free Agent. Yeah I seen his stats in 4 years he was 113-19-4 with a 932% in that time. So not sure because I don't keep up with college hockey like I use if it is the system that Hastings runs there or what or is it the kid. But someone will certainly sign him soon and it will more than likely be a team with no much goaltending in his path. Regardless seems like the kid deserved it with stats like that. I'm good with Bobby winning a title. Edit: Hoping he wins not guaranteed. Edited April 9, 2022 by OccamsRazor #boubonup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted April 9, 2022 Author Share Posted April 9, 2022 Nice win by the Phantoms last night. What a goal by Allison. Other goal by Ratcliffe, Laczynski and O'Reilly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only a few guys have done really well after winning it...Matt Carle, Johnny Gaudreau, Makar and Eichel off the top of my head but more bust than anything. But it is the point many think Bobby got robbed. Fine whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OccamsRazor Posted April 10, 2022 Author Share Posted April 10, 2022 I wouldn't be shocked if it was announced Bobby was dealing with some sort of injury down the stretch in the tournament he didn't look the same like he was laboring with something. Anways proud of him. And yes if he is injured keep him away from the Flyer medical staff... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted April 11, 2022 Author Share Posted April 11, 2022 Good to read on the young defenseman... As well as another young forgotten prospect Connor McClennon in the WHL... 59 games played 40 goals 76 points +37 A 6th round pick in the shadows of Foerster and Wisdom from the 2020 draft. I wonder how many more kids the Flyers sign they only have space for two more this year. I am sure they will wait to sign the rest after the end of the season when some of the older prospects in the AHL contracts come off the books.

OccamsRazor Posted April 11, 2022 Author Share Posted April 11, 2022 I know it is still way to soon to judge just 2 years later every pick in the 2020 draft is looking damn good right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted April 19, 2022 Author Share Posted April 19, 2022 It is time to bring him over like Isles did Ilya Sorokin. If not now then when?? He will be 26 in November. The time is now. He can push Hart and the rest of the kids. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GratefulFlyers Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 Seems to me, although I know nothing about the process, it’ll be a heavy lift getting him to North America anytime soon. Sucks for him sucks for us too bc I believe you’re right, Carter could probably use some competition. Just going by youtube clips etc it looks like Fedotov could provide it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure with the sanctions Russia couldn't wait to help out an American hockey team by sending one of their own over. I think we may be back to draft Russian at your own risk times, for now anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if Ovenchicken goes home in the offseason he ain't coming back?? And if that be the case then it could affect all Russian players....well if that is the case what can we do??? Nothing. Because it isn't going to be over soon and it is more likely to get worse before it gets better. Luckily Flyers don't have a lot of Russian prospects. Provy, Zamula and Fedotov. I guess it will affect the draft too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't hold my breath on any of the rest being allowed to come over while this is going on. Putin might like to see more Russian talent in the KHL...it would make his 10 goal games seem more bona fide! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We never really had much luck with Russian players, even the ones we traded for ,like Bryzjerkoff and Zherdev.Yuskevich and Provorov are the only two good ones we ever drafted. Butsayev, Voroybeyev, Bodrov Medvedev and others were all flops. Even the poor kid Tertyshny died in a boating accident during training camp. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
