brelic Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 That's good, but you expect a 19 year old NHL-draftee to be having a great season in junior as a 19 year old Maybe, but Hextall doesn't seem to think so. He seems genuinely impressed that his 6th round pick is leading his team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ8812 Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Maybe, but Hextall doesn't seem to think so. He seems genuinely impressed that his 6th round pick is leading his team. Every GM is impressed with 95% of their prospects.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 So great to have good young talent how ever it's sad they don't seem to know what to do with it like how they don't play Stolarz. And now Mcdud will be taking up a spot on the Phantoms a young defenseman could be playing in for the next couple of years...maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OccamsRazor Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Nice win for the Phantom's last night. 6-3 Stolarz picks up his 4th win of the season. Nice. Labarbera only has 1 win. Mark Alt +3. The 3 G's pick up a goal as well...Goulbourne, Ghost and Goumas!! Straka (EN), Brent and Cousins (1g 1a) with the other goals. Cousin's 1st game back in about 5 i think. Please leave Labarbera on the bench ride Stolarz...he gives them the best chance to win. game highlights http://ahl.neulion.com/ahl/video/binghamton-senators-vs-lehigh-valley-phantoms/13663 Phantoms skating with 7 Dmen.

OccamsRazor Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 @OccamsRazor Thanks for posting the highlights. No problem. Stolarz i know would like to have the 1st two back but it looks like he settled in after that. If the Phantoms want to get these kids some confidence and maybe make the playoff he needs to be in goal. Of course give Labarbera the 2nd game in the back to back games but Stolarz needs to play to work on his game. It's the only way he is going to develop. Sure he will have his ups and downs but let him work through it. Tyrell Goulbourne with 4 goals this season so far firing at a 30% shooting rate and two 1 punch KOs!!! the LW sniper the Flyers may be looking for... ...that is just a joke!!!

flyercanuck Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 @OccamsRazor Glad to hear Stolarz is playing steady. And maybe, just maybe, Goulbourne may not end up the waste of a pick we all thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Goulbourne may not end up the waste of a pick we all thought. I can't wait for the collision course of he and Zac when he finally gets a call up....that will be an epic throw down i believe!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Glad to hear Stolarz is playing steady. Yes and if he continues to play and grow it is possible by the time Mason and Neuvy's contract is to expire (after next year) he will be ready and give Hexy some options/leverage in negotiations with Mason or Neuvy or both. Time will tell. And by then maybe Sandstrom will be ready to come over and replace Stolarz...a lot of what if but it's nice to have those what ifs than not having them...

OccamsRazor Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Goulbourne may not end up the waste of a pick we all thought. It's nice to see him basically make Mathers expendable...he was sent down to the ECHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 I think Robert Morris LW/C Greg Gibson would be a nice free agent signing at the end of the year for the Phantoms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brelic Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 And by then maybe Sandstrom will be ready to come over and replace Stolarz Hey, if 7th rounder Lundqvist can come in and be a top goalie, why not Sandstrom, right? It's crazy how hit and miss goalies are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 6 minutes left in the game Phantoms up 6-1 Stolarz has given up 1 goal on on 31 shots. Cousins with a goal and 2 assist, Martel with 2 goals.Leier with a goal. Connor and Sundher with the other goals!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jammer2 Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 @OccamsRazor At this point, I'd rather see Cousins than Vandevelde....the team cannot score, why not give the kid an chance, see if he can add some offensive punch to the line up...unless they think he is not ready.

Then i guess you could scratch someone to make room for him VV would be fine with me.Just don't ice Vinny anymore. I'm done with him and his 6 minutes MEH!

He is a true LW might look good with G and Jake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilsFanDrew Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 It looks like the Phantoms are starting to round into shape after they got nipped with the injury bug to start the season. Cousins and Hagg are back in the lineup and Colin McDonald is close to returning. Conner has been putting up a PPG so far. Leier is starting to get going now that he is playing with more skilled linemates instead of goons like he was much of the year last season. Straka has been steady and Tim Brent has been a nice addition chipping in offensively and being a veteran leader. Stolarz has been great so far, its just a shame they have swiss cheese LaBarbara backing him up and the way they play many 3 games in 3 nights he is going to have to get starts.

Labarbera is supposed to be an emergency goalie for the NHL but whats he going to do he is giving up 4 goals a night in the A. So if they ever need him they are screwed.

He's nothing special but he has to be better than Labarbera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jammer2 Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 I'm glad Hexy decided to throw Chris Porter on waivers. He probably knew that there was a real good chance he gets claimed. All Porter would have done was take up a Phantoms spot that could have been given to a young developing kid. You can't have all kids, but the Flyers have the right mix of vets and 1st and 2nd year players down there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather Stolarz play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather Stolarz play. I think the reason they played Zepp more last year was because it was Stolarz 1st professional season and they wanted to ease him in a bit and not overwhelm him but let him develop by seeing the game on and off the ice. I think with a full season under his belt and the way he is performing he would be getting more of the starts if Zepp were still here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
