As much as everyone was down on carle if that happens we are screwed unless manning turns out to be the real deal, How come his name hasnt been in any of these articles JJ post
oh ya.. if carle doesn't get resigned and the flyers miss out on suter, garrison, and dont pony up for wideman, they'd struggle big time defensively.. that would mean gust and bourdon would have to play night in and night out, one or two injuries (not unlikely) and you're playing lilja and manning too.. a bottom 4 of gust, bourdon, lilja, and manning isn't taking the flyers anywhere haha
i haven't discussed manning much because he only played a couple games and i didnt think he was that highly touted of a prospect.. but HF has him as the flyers best d-prospect (tied w/ gust), so maybe we should give him more credit.. also apparently we should've paid more attention to the signing of matt mangene and matt konan (who they have as our 3rd and 4th best now).. add hulking lauridsen in there as a potential guy too.. he was probably the 2nd most likely to crack the lineup in camp last season
the flyers really do have a shit load of defensive prospects that might be able to crack the lineup.. if a couple of them really get it together (i thought bourdon especially was on the cusp before he got re-hurt)
edit: didnt even mention black kessel who could be the offensive guy, plus he's right-handed
