So when the boys wake up in the morning, it should be a nice kickoff to start the morning by scrolling through our late night discussion about our disturbing mascot and ice dancers,lol.
Hey reading through those posts made my first hour of work go as fast as possible.

Awaz i know this is a little late but sorry about your Hokies.

Heh, thanks man. Tough loss, but not totally surprising. VT is good at those type of losses :L

Wow! Talk about a shot to the groin buddy..:dhd: ODU isn't quite the powerhouse. I didn't even realize they had a football team:noidea:

Heh ya. They only have for like 9 years or something like that :L

Probably worse than the JMU loss from 2011, but I watched this one from my couch instead of in the stadium. So that makes it better.

Flyers finish with 103 points, 2nd in the Metro this season. That's my prediction.
I hope you are right although it would be nice to finish first and get home ice advantage in the playoffs. Hopefully we have a deep playoff run and maybe get to steal the cup.

Wow i didn't realize Corban Knight is 28.

I think Knight is Vandevelde Jr.

Vandevelde - First real NHL season was 2014 at age 27. Went to North Dakota, played for Hak from 2006-2010. Primarily lauded as a defense-first, 4th liner, that can play on the PK.

Knight - First real NHL season TBD, even though he's 28. Went to North Dakota, played for Hak from 2009-2013. Primarily lauded as a defense-first, 4th liner, that can play on the PK.

I've been OK with Knight in the preseason. I think he's played some good games, and I'm even OK with having that defense-first guy on your 4th line. But there was a reason VDV didn't play in the NHL until he was 27 and didn't get another NHL contract. There's probably a reason Knight hasn't played in the NHL until now.

I'm definitely skeptical of it. Fortunately this rendition of the Flyers has Lindblom/Simmonds/Vorobyev as the likely 3rd line. That line is too good to get overtaken in ice time by a VDV/Bellemare-like line. Plus Raffl and Laughton are far superior to Bellemare, Rinaldo, Cousins, and whoever else they tried there.
