jammer2 Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 The Phoenix blogger continues his summer long quest to list each teams top 10 prospects. I think he shows a nice working knowledge of the players and the Flyers org in general. I like the Ian White/Ghost comparision, I see a bit of White in Ghost's game. I liked the fact he touched on Cousins skating needing work, skating could be the one thing that holds him back, so it was spot on to mention it.http://www.hockeybuz...69#.UgQfW6zd4ucWhat struck me as odd was Manning being ranked ahead of Oliver, even though he said Oliver might make it, that was messed up. Manning should not even be in the top 10 at this point, or at least lower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doom88 Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Manning has played well in spot duty. Lauridsen did okay, but he has more work to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jammer2 Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 @doom88 I thought Manning hit a rough patch last year, didn't play up to expectations? At least, I remember reading that somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Podein25 Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 I like the White comparison tooThe Manning thing is kind of weird. The blog says he got an invite to the AHL All-Star Game, so he can't have played that poorly. I liked what I saw of him as Flyer in the few games he's played. He looked poised to me. Which is a good thing. Shows he thinks the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really odd the varying reports coming out of the AHL, from on the all star team to barely holding on to his AHL positon...that's some crazy variance right there!

terp Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Manning is an inch away from not being a prospect anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TarHeelFlyer Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 The list seems to make sense to me. Nothing really glaring that I go, that is just wrong. I look forward to seeing Morin's development. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hf101 Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 @TarHeelFlyerWelcome to hockeyforums.I agree I'm looking forward most to Morin's and Stolarz development. @jammer2I think I'd move up Ghost to the #4 spot on the list, placing Stolarz to #5 and then Cousins at #6.
