Lunatic Posted May 19, 2018 Author Share Posted May 19, 2018 It is a seven game series. The Phantoms can come back. Although I just listened to the game, it sounded like Myers, Vecchione and Sanheim had really good games. Exciting Times for the Flyers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantoms have some pretty seasoned older guys like Conner, McDonald and Carey. Toronto is young and talented and will be a thorn in the Flyers' side for a long time. Just like us they are convinced their prospects are pretty incredible. But so are a lot of other teams. That's why I try not to get too hung up on how bright the Flyers' future is supposed to be. Plenty of other organizations think they have great talent waiting in the wings. Time will tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of other organizations think they have great talent waiting in the wings. Time will tell. It's not just about the players it is the organization as a whole has been in the playoffs every year since 2011. They have either finished 1st or 2nd in the North every year since then. That is impressive. 7 years straight of playoff action. 3 of those 4 they were in the conference finals and in one all the way to the finals (11-12 and lost to Norfolk). Been to the conference finals 2 of the last 3 years. Now i don't know how many players were part of that but i would have to think some were. Phantoms don't have that kind of experience to fall back on. That is all i am saying. 13 minutes ago, Poconono said: Just like us they are convinced their prospects are pretty incredible.

Plenty of other organizations think they have great talent waiting in the wings. Time will tell Well for one thing more of the big forward talent hasn't even arrived yet. So yeah keep expectations tempered. In fact only really 3 highly touted forwards are among the mix even. Lindblom, Aube-Kubel (was suspended last 3 games) and Vorobyev (who has't played muc due to injury and is still not 100%). The forwards who are a part of the future: Frost Ratcliffe Allison Lacynski Strome Rubstov Bunnaman Sushko Laberge Then you have Hart, Sandstrom and Ustimenko coming soon in goal. They haven't arrived yet and are still early in development arc. But it is starting to turn around and we are seeing it start last year with getting back to the playoffs now and this year in the conference finals. It is getting better and hopefully you can see that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Some great plays by Sanehi yesterday....to bad they didn't win it. They need to win today. And the goal by Myers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Phantoms lose again 3-2. Doesn't look like Phantoms are getting much scoring help from the forwards. I guess to be expected when playing a better team. Phantoms just have to many career AHLers at forward right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sekkes85 Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Marlies have been undefeated at home, hopefully can get 2 or 3 in Allentown and win on the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Not an excuse but just the reality of the situation the Marlies just have more of their hungry young draft picks in their lineup right now too. Most of them at forward, Flyers don't have many at forward yet. And it is helping in the scoring department. The Flyers have too many career AHLers and a few ECHLers in their lineup. Leaf draft picks/freeagents playing. Forward Grundstrom 2016 Johnsson 2013 Gauthier 2013 Aaltonen (come over in trade) drafted 2013 Timashov 2015 Engvall 2014 Bracco 2015 Brooks 2016 Marchment 2015 undrafted free agent Defense Liljegren 2017 Dermott 2015 Nielsen 2015 Borgman undrafted free agent 2016 Rosen undrafted free agent 2016 Goalie Sparks 2011 So as you can see a young skilled experience team who a majority was drafted and developed. So the Leafs are just slightly ahead of the Flyers in the development curve. However a nice flock of talent will be surging in the upcoming and following years to help close the gap. No excuses just the way it should be done and it is paying off for both clubs. Not saying the Phantoms don't have talent they have a few but more will be coming in the future. Would love to see Frost, Ratcliffe and Laberge as well as Hart in the lineup but they will get their chance later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
