Flyers' Laperriere Sees Improvements in Recovery

Encouraging news. I really hope he can overcome the post-concussion problems, I'd love to see him back on the ice in orange and black.

Good read Soulx.



“Right now, my hope is to get back to 100 percent and I’m not even close,” he said. “The big thing is to wake up every morning and not feel a headache. You can’t imagine what that means.”

He's not even trying to pretend all is well in Oz, is he?

If Lappy cant come back is there a coaching position somewhere in the system for him, I want him to teach every young Flyer to play with the kind of heart he did.

carcillos shot block last time probably made lappy very proud.
its the lappy effect. when guys see other guys sacrificing so much, its contagious. we need lappy back for that stretch run and the playoffs. he adds such a spark.

well...if they feel that cote deserves a coaching spot i believe that lappy may get a chance...

I really hope he does....like woot says it is cathcy when guys lay it all out there and as a fan i appreciate players more when they block shots, throw checks and basically just make all the hustle plays

Is there a place to find the stat for "blocked shots by team"? I know the Rangers have to be up there, the players have been blocking shots like crazy.

Here you go! You guys are first in the league in blocked shots but thats only because the other teams are aiming for them not because they are really blocking shots.

 

[SLY]

Wow, thanks I didnt even see that on NHL.com.

We lead in total hits, blocked shots.

22nd in giveaways, 8th in takeaways.

We definitely need to improve our FO%

 

[lasgop8]

You need to improve you winning percentage also.

Later boys!

Just remember, thursday will decide who takes over the division.

HA! Well played, sir.

If there is a 1% chance of him coming back I don't want to rush it. I want him back as much as the next guy, but I don't want him hurt

 

[anderwho2513]

Ha. Flyers are far and away #1 in missed shots. Way to go Carter!

I just wanted to bump this thread to see if any body has heard anything concerning a return for Lappy? If he's done then that's cool, what he contributed to this team in one year was far beyond expectations. As I was looking forward to him being here awhile, I guess I should feel lucky I got to see a lot of him here in an AV's jersey.

i thought there was a new article

When I seen this bumped up I was kinda hoping for that too.


Damn..

I was hoping someone had some info too, why I bumped it. Would be great to see him back but I think he's done!

I remember seeing that if he played outside he'd be fine, it was indoor lighting that kept him off the ice.
