CoachX Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 I was nice to see Dale Wiese back on the ice last night. I realize he isn't playing up to potential but I think he's been playing injured all year. The Flyers needed his grit and size in a rivalry game like. It definitely prevented Pittsburgh from taking liberties with star players. It was also good to see him get his scoring touch back (again, injury). It was a long overdue goal that I can see propelling his game at this late point. I expect a scoring surge that will make it too easy for a contract extension. And let's face it, the Flyers need to lock this guy up long term. He was easily the best off season signing Hextall made and clearly an indicator of Hexy's shrewd genius. Simple Math: Weise + Contract = Captain = Cup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simple Math: Weise + Contract = Captain = Cup Frankly, if Wiese has been playing hurt all year, there has been no reason for him to be in the lineup. And yes I get the sarcasm, but just in case you're his mom or something... There are 2 or three other players who can do exactly the same thing as he's been producing while hurt. I'd much rather have seen Weal earlier or more of Leier to play those minutes. If you're going to tell me Giroux has been hurt all year, but playing won't ruin his career, then okay, I can see how an injured Giroux on this team is better than the necessary adjustments this team would have to make not having a 1C. But Wiese? If he's been hurt he simply should not have been playing until he was better. No reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

murraycraven Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Weise blows... Glad he can be used as a pylon to shoot pucks off of... maybe one will go in every 30 games! He also was at fault for the Palmieri goal. so glad we have this 13th forward for another 3 years.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RJ8812 Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 I loved his game before he got to the Flyers. He's been a complete dud this year and it's quite surprising. We have to hope he has a bounce back season next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howie58 Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 I have to agree with others on the board who've posted that signing a guy of this caliber (or re to those north of the border) to a four year gig was a stretch. I agree with RJ that he's shown some positives with Montreal but his play with Chicago was not so hot. Yep--we hope he is more next year. Otherwise it will be buyout time. If Hexy wants to remake the team, he can't tie up a slot with DW's stats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
