It was reported that O'Hoppe was seriously sick with a non Covid illness. He lost weight and stamina. They're going to bring him back slowly.

Terrible broadcast. These guys are yammering away with little connection to the game that is going on

The stumbling point with Trotz had to be his desire to get in to management after a three or so year stint behind the bench. I couldn't see Comcast being willing to do that. Money? Sure. Management position? Nope Torts is soon to be 64. This is probably going to be his last HC job. I'm quite interes...

Could bring up Appel

I thought that Marchan was now on the active roster and playing at LV.

When you can't fire the team, fire the manager. Sure Girardi is not blameless but these players need to look into the mirror and examine themselves. Some are getting way too much money for their production. I hope that DD sends a few of them packing.

Lamoriello indicated that Trotz was adverse to playing the you guys. Pointed out that Wahlstrom did not improve as expected. Too much veteranocity. That won't work here for Trotz. The young guys are the players here. I like Trotz's ability to get solid defensive play out of his clubs but it usually ...

The consensus top five are Wright, Cooley, Slafkovsky, Neemec and Jiricek. One of them will fall to the Flyers unless Fletcher trades back. That IMO would be a fireable offense but since he does dizzy things all of the time without being canned, it's probably what he'll do. Hopefully the Flyers will...

More concerned about Hoskins' play than anything else right now. When he gets hot, he's fun and one can tolerate his bad play in the field. When he gets in one of these funks like he's in right now, he's one ugly baseball player. Time for the club to move on from him.

Big game. Need a loss. It would cinch 4th place in the first round draft order pre-lottery. Still a slim chance that Seattle passes the Flyers.
