He had a real unfortunate timing with his injury when we needed to recall him before and I know a lot of you have been begging for Martel. My personal expectations are low for him but cheering the kid on in hopes he can provide a spark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaineFlyFan Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 He cross-checks a guy in the neck 1st shift and gets 5 games by the league as a repeat offender....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ8812 Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Morin should have been in the line-up weeks ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojo1917 Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 the biggest and smallest guys in the organization. Maybe Martel turns into our version of Johnny Gadreau or Connor Sheary. I hope he sees meaningful minutes with good linemates and isn't buried playing 8 a night with Lehtera and Weise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sekkes85 Posted November 22, 2017 Author Share Posted November 22, 2017 We should have gotten another 2nd out of the Blues for taking Lehtera. Can't believe we have him under contract next year too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure but there is no measure for the biggest muscle required this team seems to be lacking. HEART. Maybe the Frenchies bring it they help save America before....can they do it again?

OccamsRazor Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Nice i want to see the lines roll out.... 28 Claude Giroux - 14 Sean Couturier - 93 Jakub Voracek 40 Jordan Weal - 19 Nolan Patrick - 17 Wayne Simmonds 18 Danick Martel - 51 Valtteri Filppula - 11 Travis Konecny 20 Taylor Leier - 21 Scott Laughton - 12 Michael Raffl Sure the 3rd will be small in stature. But fast and gives Martel two gast set up guys. Can always adjust during game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if I sit him, but he needs someone to settle him down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't see the play or game so not defending him in anyway but he needs a better partner than Manning. Manning is scary sometimes in his own end. The Flyers (not that i'm complaining) almost have too many offensive Dmen and not enough guys who are good/great at defense. With Gudas out now you have only Ivan and Hagg who can play that type of role. Ghost and Sanheim have a lot still to learn about defending their own end and they are still a year or two away. Supposedly when ready Friedman and Myers are suppose to be more of two Dmen not sure how much better at defense they will truly be. Sam is suppose to be but he will need time to adjust to the speed and get the jitters out. As hard as it was to get him up here i know he has to be thinking to much because he is afraid to make a mistake because he think s he be sent back. Flyers need him to stick around and i'm pulling for him to make Manning eventually a healthy scratch. Will see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Anyone want to give us (me) a scouting report from the two new guys last night?? Looks like Sam was ready to go!!!! Nice hit by Sam on Eberle. Not a smart play by Sam. Demote him now. Just kidding. Some nice wheels on Martel. I would like to see him moved up a line he is not a 4th liner. Almost. He was getting some chances that is good to see. Dude is pretty fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Wow. I just notice the Flyers finally have a East coast game and no one made a game thread. You guys have to tighten up!!! Any ways always good to see the refs have gotten better. So this is a penalty???? Are you kidding me??? But this isn't called??? Unreal. So much for player safety.

AJgoal Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 @OccamsRazor Martel wasn't on the 4th line. He played with Patrick. 42 minutes ago, OccamsRazor said: Didn't see the play or game so not defending him in anyway but he needs a better partner than Manning. Morin was his partner last night.

Really the clips i seen it was him and Manning out there on one of the turnovers that went the other way for a score. Might have been a line change. Thanks.

brelic Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Martel was fast and made things happen - almost scored a few goals. But Patrick still needs to find his game. Sloppy passing and turnovers are a common thing with him. Morin looked so so. A few nice plays defensively, two bad penalties. Provorov also looked not great. Turnovers and got his pocket picked a few times. Ghost was brutal lol. All around, a bad night for defensemen. Sanheim and Hagg were probably the best defenders last night.

Yeah, it's almost like having Morin up made him feel like he was no longer the new guy haha. He was strong at both ends of the ice. Ghost still looks great in the offensive zone.... but he is easily the worst defensive blueliner on the team. It's probably what we'll get from him in the long run, and as long as he produces more than he costs the team, it's a good trade off. Sheltered minutes and OZ starts are key with Ghost. No other defenseman can do what he does for the offense. Yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
off_the_post Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 I've seen Martel play ball hockey last summer at the World Ball Hockey championship. He won silver playing with Canada. He lead the tournament in scoring. One thing I noted was how quick he could start and stop running...just like a tail back. I see he can play similar on ice. He is obviously getting knocked around out there but he is 100% effort all the time. He certainly makes things happen. I don't know how long his tenure will last but I am enjoying watching him on the big club. For those that have seen him play with the Phantoms I presume he is playing the same type of game with the Flyers since he is in a top 9 role? He certainly hasn't been a perimeter player.
