The state of the Wild probably was probably not all that good. With Chuck, they had six playoff appearances in nine years. I would say it improved a bit from the prior regime. He had zero division titles in 9 years. Not that division titles are anything to brag about. But he couldn't even deliver ONE of those. Though as a Flyer fan, I think that's something we can set our sights on as the ultimate goal with Chuckie as GM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The conference will be about the hire of Torchetti, to add to the *fans' torture. Yup, and then end of the year Yeo will be replaced by Torchetti to give him that total deja vu experience.

FD19372 Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 (edited) Why do I think this is just a press conference to announce the addition of John Kreese...er John Torchetti as an assistant? Not trying to "sweep the leg" out from under the press conference, by any means. Edited January 26, 2022 by FD19372 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OccamsRazor Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Fletcher says that both Ellis and Couturier are working hard, but there's a chance they could miss the rest of the season. Trying to avoid surgery for both but that's possible. Why Chuckles go ahead and get the damn surgery this year is OVER!!!! Do like Sharks did with Karlsson he is waiting he is having surgery and will try to make it back for a playoff push. That is what you are supposed to do it isn't fair for the rest of the team to put it off it isn't no different when a player hides an injury and tries to play through it I get it but you owe it to the team to go ahead and get surgery and just do the best you can to get back. Damn I hate this flawed philosophy with them it is so effin annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
