first game is a week from saturday (oct. 13th)
2012-13 Adirondack Phantoms Schedule - Philadelphia Flyers - News
5-2 albany after 2.. based on tweets it sounds like the phantoms are dominating but hoivinen is awful (how familiar.)
manning and syvret with the phantoms goals
I like Manning as stated before i like him better than Gust
5-3 final
Syvret
Ford (tipped manning's shot apparently)
McGinn (from couturier)
hovinen stopped 18 of 23 shots, phantoms had 47 shots
Hoiven was supposed to be really good what happened to that?
as per our scouts?Just who in the fuck has been responsible for the Flyer's choice of goalies in the last 20 plus years baffles me.Other than trades or free agents,their picks have been mostly garbage.
With their first,and IMO even 2nd draft pick this year,they should have grabbed a goalie.The prospects in the system now,are not all that promising.

I though we should grabbed a Matta when he fell to us then maybe a goalie
goalies are pretty much a crap shoot.. aside from carey price (who is overrated IMO) and cory schnieder, none of the guys taken with a high pick have panned out in the past several years.. rask you could make the argument, but he was drafted 7 years ago
fleury was taken 1st overall but the pens really haven't gotten great goaltending from him.. he had a couple decent years
rinne - 258th
lundqvist - 205th
miller - 138th
quick - 72nd
defense is difficult to draft, goalies are nearly impossible.. you're just as likely to steal a guy like hovinen as you are to draft a starting goalie
because of that, the flyers seem to only draft forwards in the first round (sbisa is the only D-man they've taken since 2003)
how come we cant get a goalie that late that turns out to be a starter im not even asking for a vezina trophy candidate just a solid number 1
One game for the rookie goalie he's still finding his angles on the smaller rink no one knows at this point if he'll turn out but goalies usually take a lot longer than any other player. Awaz is right Dmen second longest so drafting fwds is smart quickest reward and you can always trade for other positions later.
Depending on the type of dman you like Bourdon the toughest, Gusty best offensively and Manning all round...I like them all!
We need hockey why can't they just settle on 50/50 and be done with it they'll never recover 3 billion if the season is washed...idiots.
