2018-2019 NHL Season Thread Hockey • Page 168

Schmaltz for Perlini and Strome.

What an epically botched pick.

 

Chayka kind of sucks

 

Analytics guys selling low on two players with low shooting percentage. It's almost like people in the media don't have a goddamn clue what they're talking about when they grandstand about this shit.

 

So you’re saying there’s a chance

 

I just don't think Strome skates well enough to be an effective NHLer

 

I can't like this enough

 

Isn't the other strome like a great skater but literally nothing else? Kind of ironic

 

None of the Stromes can skate.

 

If I was a new GM and came into the organization knowing my predecessor had drafted a Strome, I'd be pissed too

 

Make Gritty the GM now

 

Ahahahahahahahahaha that's what you get for drafting a Strome

 

Not exactly sad but fire the fucking coach next.

 

I never see what the point of constantly building up inventory and prospects when you never fucking use it to make the team better

 

Matthew, by the way, drafted in 2017, subject of this article from November 2016 - The trouble with Bulldogs winger Matthew Strome

I firmly, sincerely believe that a generation of gamers raised on the NHL series can trade players as (or more) effectively than the average NHL GM

 

SHOCKED at this news

SHOCKED I say!

 

Exactly. The Flyers have constantly felt 2-3 years away from being 2-3 years away under Hextall. I was on board initially but this shit has grown tired quickly.

I bet ownership wanted him to can Hak and he wouldn't so they gave him his papers...at least that is what I hope is going on.

 

Alzner on waivers is awesome news! Did not think that Bergevin would have the guts to admit that he messed up badly when he signed that pylon.

 

Yea, it's kinda unfortunate but bergevin is doing decently right now. Must be all the roids hahaha

 

Fletcher just got here damnit!

 

Aren't those guys like really similar to hextall? Hahaha

Was kind of hoping Seattle would get Francis so I hope they take fletcher

 

I feel like I rarely see a fan base so vocal as Philly fans are about firing their coach... and yet the GM goes first lol.

 

my guess is that Hextall was being pressured to fire the coach and refused so they canned him

 

That vatanen goal
