Vanflyer Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Any defensemen in Toronto that really suck? They have defensemen in Toronto?? Who knew!!! I wonder if they would be interested in Luke Schenn? :-P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanflyer Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 They were a combined -12 tonight. Amazingly Phaneuf was even somehow. And Franson was even as well. Pretty remarkable when you think that only one of Nashvilles goals were scored on the PP and that both Franson and Phaneuf played 20 minutes each. What are the odds of that??

Vanflyer Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Lavy sucks as a coach. True story. I really like trotz. its kind of funny to think how perception is that Trotz is a defensive minded coach and Lavy is an offensive minded coach. Last year under Trotz, Nashville was a -26 in goal differential. This year under Lavy, thus far, they are a +15. Go figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brelic Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Seems like there's a chance Laughton centers Schenn and Voracek. I like that WAY better than having Hamburglar on the top line and moving Schenn to the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like that WAY better than having Hamburglar on the top line and moving Schenn to the middle.I think they may be to much to fast....AHL to 1st line center in the NHL your time this season during a callup. I think Berube will ease him into the lineup.....3rd line centering VLC and RJ. My guess anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Umberger on the 1st line, even though he's been the worst forward for the Flyers so far. VLC on wing, where he has stated he hates to play. Rinaldo on the 3rd line and a 4th line that is literally an AHL line. I try not to be one of "those" Philly fans, but "ouch", is pretty much all I can say.

Completely agree. Fortunately, my sons have a HS game tonight, so I have an excuse to miss the 1st 2 periods. Maybe by the 3rd, things will be "all better" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaGreatGazoo Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Yet his production is on the rise. Weird He's been playing LW, predominatly, right? Honest question-- I haven't watched a lot in the last few weeks. I remember the Flyers saying they were going to play him at LW and leave him there. I'm fine with that; kid has bounced all over the place. So, he plays a lot of LW(making an assumption he has), seems to be getting comfortable, has produced over the last 5+ games, and then they switch him back to to center? Yeah, it's only until Giroux gets back...... Honestly, don't get what Berube does most of the time. He obviously has his reasons, but damn, if I can figure any method behind his madness.

Vanflyer Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 This year under Lavy, Rinne thus far, they are a +15. Go figure. Under normal circumstances, I would say yes. But this is not your grandma's Preds. Lavy has changed and adapted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
