Does anyone know if there was a tribute video or anything for Ivan before the game or anything? I mean he did play over 550 games for the Flyers?

Popular Post flyercanuck Posted October 13, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 13, 2023 Flyers remain undefeated in games I've watched since Nov. 2021 Nice seeing a team that actually has a heartbeat, even if they did have a shaky ending. Hart was a rock. Glad to be back watching 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howie58 Posted October 13, 2023 Author Share Posted October 13, 2023 It will take some for our offense to gel. I'm glad the fourth line is coherent. Agreed with JJ or whomever that Poehling has wheels. Brink and Zemula are poised despite lack of experience. Hart looked good. We moved the puck out of our zone. It's good to start the season on a positive note. On to Ottawa. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GratefulFlyers Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 good 4th line - Torts used them well to start the game and they kept after it all night. One of the announcers referred to it as the PHD line... might be a stretch but the letters do fit! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OccamsRazor Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 Didn't watch the game a whole lot so can't confirm or deny this. https://flyersnittygritty.com/if-this-is-the-travis-sanheim-the-flyers-will-get-this-season-then-flyers-fans-are-in-for-a-treat/ But this is a great report if true and if this kid can grow his game and be the #1 they need so bad well it is going to help speed this rebuild up. So being out of Ivan's shadow is a good thing. I'm pulling for the kid Flyers need this from him. I love that he understands the mission and that he can be the leader the kids and most importantly the team needs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the broken for debacle last year and learning yet another system, Sanheim got time to work out and he added 15 pounds of muscle to his frame. He's a solid 6'3, 220 pounds now and he's basically been given the green light to take over. With his skating and puck handling, he should easily hit the 50 point mark this year. Best trade that never happened. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting rid of a GM who is a complete idiot when it comes to hockey can only help any member of this club. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mojo1917 Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 Couple of thoughts after last nights limited viewing. the 4th line is ****** fun to watch. They are fast and mean, what's the deal with Poehling? how was he available on the cheap? He's got size, wheels, isn't a dumbass...He looks to be a nice addition. Noah Cates is for real. That kid, gets his stick on everything, he's smart. I'm excited for the line of 21, 27 and 11 that looks like a matchup problem for a lot of teams. Brink didn't look out of place, nor did Zamula, I mean Brink did get knocked off the puck a few times by larger dudes and Zamula did pass the puck to the opposition leading to a pretty nice chance against when I was watching...BUT. Brink knows where to go and looks like his clock speed has increased. Zamula doesn't panic even when he does pass the puck to the other team he keeps playing and making plays. I thought Z was a goner after camp but maybe he sticks around. Would love to see him add some weight to his frame. Sanhiem looks like a battleship on the ice, he looks big and played a pile of good minutes. The added weight didn't seem to affect his skating. If the team plays like this for the whole year, I'll be satisfied. They'll still get two first picks, but I don't think they'll be lottery unless Danny Jonesy makes the goat sacrifice at the Flyers Wives' Carnival. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got size, wheels, isn't a dumbass I think the issue is that people expect first round picks to score goals and put up points in the NHL, regardless of whether they have that offensive upside or not. Poehling was never really that guy. He did ok in College hockey, but nothing in his game screams upside. He's also worked on his skating it appears. I like everything else about his game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Saturday (Oct. 7th) , Michkov played in his 10th game with Sochi, where he has accumulated 5 goals and 12 points. EliteProspects has him projected to finish the season with 32 goals and 70 points in just 64 games, which is absolutely unheard of for an 18-year-old in the KHL. Michkov is currently 27th in the league with 12 points, but he has played anywhere between 3-4 games less than the rest of the players ahead of him with Nikolai Goldobin sitting atop of the league with 21 points in 16 games for Spartak Moscow. It’s safe to assume that the Flyers got a steal with their 7th overall pick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
