Howie58 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Greetings: https://www.cbssports.com/fantasy/hockey/news/flyers-zack-macewen-hits-waivers/ I doubt he is claimed; if so, no great loss. I'd view this positively. Growing a youngster with upside has greater value to the organization. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't disagree that he brings important intangibles to the table, but his NHL experience doesn't inspire: https://www.nhl.com/player/zack-macewen-8479772 If I had to put money on it, Laczynski is the opening fourth line center.

GrittyForever Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Only one confirmed waiver so far is Connauton. Grosenick sent to minors. https://www.tsn.ca/nhl/transactions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think because he is big, skates well, and willing to hit and fight he looks busy when he's on the ice his eye test results are better than his actual play. His simple metrics, xG especially are terrible, the team gets caved when he's on the ice. So maybe this is a case where things aren't being done the way they always have been® radoran Even though he "does stuff", it's not good stuff often enough. He was on waivers for a reason last year and because so much of this team was injured and checked out last season, his pumping arms and legs stood out from the zombies that were here already. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't they had to actually perform a paper transaction by sending Laczynski and Allison down and only have 11 forwards to get cap complyent to recall them tomorrow. How Chuck has a job is beyond me. Unless he is following instructions which would explain everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GratefulFlyers Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 MacEwen had a good game last night - despite the b.s. roughing minor. Tortorella was obviously happy with him and the entire bottom 6. I don't think he shortened the bench at all even in the final minutes. I like the message: everybody is expected to play disciplined hockey and be part of closing out a tight game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
