Morning Bill. What would you like to see this pre season? By that I mean what are you going to focus on. Leave MM out of the equation. Thanks.

I'd like to feel a little more comfortable about the goaltending heading into the season.

unfortunate as imo he has a path to play if he does his job. need to put in the work as they did pay you 900k last season.

Did the Ivan signing in your opinion play a big factor in him wanting to now stay home?

I wonder if he was lied/mislead in anyway as we know communication isn't the flyers strong suit

We have one of the most uncertain goalie situations in the entire league, it’s completely bizarre that he’s going this route

These entitled kids, there whole life they have been given spots on teams because of there skill level was above the norm. Now once they get drafted they believe the same is true, but the problem is there skill level is no longer above the norm it is below.
For the first time in a long time they have to earn there spot and they are not used to that.

Smart play here is to let him rot, if he wants to be a little boy then he can sit for a few mores years not playing professional hockey and then see who want him. Screw trading him and giving him an out.


IN SHORT, EARN IT OR GO AWAY.

I think the Flyers are playing it perfectly. They are asking for a second round pick. If they get that then move him out! Otherwise, he can sit it out cause he is under contract with the Flyers.

In a way yes but at the same time it is a bit understandable from Kolosovs point of view. He came over at the end of last season. Didnt like it. He has told Flyers he wants to be loaned again. It seems like if he were to have a guaranteed NHL spot he would be willing to cone over but not to play in Allentown.

Flyers are in the right imo but i can understand why Kolosov doesn't want to come over. He is making a mistake IMO. Way more beneficial for him to come over now

Line up looks worth watching to me. Unfortunately my lions play at 4:30 but I’m definitely looking forward to that first period.

I don’t own a DVR. Does DVR come with cable? I don’t use cable, I stream everything. Plus I’m not local to Philly. Oh, and because the game is on NHL network, it’s blacked out everywhere but their channel. I’m going to the bar to watch the game before the locals here take over and want to watch the lions.

It’s more complicated than it really has to be.
