stefanski goes from soft to angel soft when it comes to grabbing in your face coaches who motivate players

and iggy calling shots now on his sit down meeting with stefanski on who to bring in? wow

how he even has the ball to say that (max player or not) just shows you how disorganized that organization really is

i dont think you can say what kind of coach he would hire yet...he inherited one coach and hired a mid season replacement...the dileo hire doesnt even count...and yes he didnt have to re up cheeks but he had just gotten the job and with the great run they made last spring and cheeks being beloved in the city i cant blame him for that...this next hire is a clean slate all on him hire...ill hold off on judgment til then

and outside of maybe football where you have monster coaching staffs and scouting depts. every gm meets with every player after the season is over and takes input from them...thats how it should be

[BigEd76]

I'm not a fan of DiLeo either, but what coaches are out there that make this team better?  Avery Johnson....meh

i think people (not nba scouts) are overrating him because of the final four...ill be very surprised if he goes in the top 20 and no way i take him in the first round

[reese125]

holic wants $20 on that

ncaa lacrosse tournament?

Now you're talking. Though I'm going to miss the final four this year. It's wedding season.

Boring.

The best part of the NHL draft is the reactions from the crowd when the kid stands up to get his jersey and the camera catches his teenage girlfriend and/or sister

[rjs246]

The best part of the NHL draft is three years later when one or two of the players drafted by other teams start playing in all-star games and all of the players the Flyers drafted are third line role-players

my favorite was reemsdyke being scared to leave college for the big bad pros....bodes well for his future

Stefanski was on with Missanelli a few minutes ago, he said Sammy asked to be traded at the deadline (can't remember if this was public knowledge or not). Ed said they did have some talks with other teams. I recall a Sammy/LouWill for K-Mart deal being talked about. He says Sammy hasn't approached him again with that request. Ed's straight forward and always PC but reading between the lines Sammy's a goner thank god.

sammy is the least of their worries...hes only got two years left on his deal...i mean if they can move him this year for a contract that expires in 2010 then that would be nice but even that buys you only one year

brand is a much bigger issue because hes locked up for another four years
