Angelo Esposito to fife,finucci released Where did you see that? Took a punt because elite prospects have just listed his as being released.

My biggest suspicion is that seems awful quick for Flyers, normally takes weeks to do changes :-)

Angelo Esposito to fife,finucci released Changes are needed so hopefully Finucci being released is true, however we don't need more skilled hockey players what we don't have as we all know are physical players. Multiple serious knee injuries, sounds like a bargain!!!

Finucci is doing Facebook live with Russ Moyer tonight, would be a strange choice of player to do it if he had indeed been gassed.

Given Flyers history of reluctancy to make any changes to our roster no matter what, I ain't expecting any changes soon either.
Changing a few players ain't gonna do much anyway what we need is a change in the person who is picking them and coaching them.

It seems there is very much a theme to where folks believe the blame lies. I would like to see this group of players under good solid coaching, but alas, there is next to no chance of a change at the helm.

I would get rid of Finucci and Schaber right off the bat. I'd also maybe add Thinel into the group as well, but I'd like to see how he performs with a couple of new linemates 1st.
Another huge problem of ours this season is in D, we are giving up nearly 40+ shots every single game and that is not good enough. Can't make my mind up on Turon and Jackman just yet as they have both been out injured, Moyer has been solid so far and Paquet is very patchy, for someone that size he should be using it alot more.

Number of shots given up is a team stat not a defence one. Paquet is a big laddie but he isn't physical, yes he can and does throw the odd hit but that's his style. We all knew that after last season. Out of all our defencemen Turon is the guy appears to finish his hits. Again though we don't have physical players. It would be a guess on my part but I would say our leading hitter is Ryan Dingle.

Not sure why everyone wants finnucci gone, he was only ever brought in as 3rd liner. Likely makes the least on the team and has the same number of points as the higher salary players which should be far more worrying. Doesn't play on power play so no chance of him getting points there and works tirelessly wit dingle on the PK. a think we have far bigger problems - his freed up salary wouldnt bring in a quality physical presence anyway. My 2 cents but think theres bigger underachievers by far

My 2 cents but think theres bigger underachievers by far Skill based creative player who dumps the puck in the corner while on a 4 on 2. The guy works hard (or looks like he does) but has no end product when he has the puck. Watch how often he throws it around the boards or into an open space expecting someone else to go and fight for it. He gives up possession more than any other player. It was a gamble to bring him in as we really needed physical players on that 3rd line. We have better small skilled guys on the top 2 lines no need for a lesser version on the 3rd. Someone else said it on a game thread, He's like Ned but not as good!
