Quisp, when are you gonna start applying for assistant GM positions?

Also, Vey is putting up assists when Toffoli isn’t scoring. Splitting hairs, though. The line of Pearson/Vey/Toffoli may be good for us in the future though. Can’t wait to see that in the NHL. They are tearing it up.

Thanks, Quisp. How about the Kopi/Carter/Richards/Lewis thing? I fear you may be correct about Lokti. But that may just be residual fear left over from Terry Murray. I’m loved watching Lokti in the Memorial Cup run, thought he’d be special, especially as a two-way player. May just be he just needs to simmer a little longer. Not quite sold yet on his gamte being NHL quality…..yet.

Vey is excellent, yes. Maybe a little young still. I fear that Lombardi is destined to squander Loktionov. Vey is a bit more versatile. He’s doing great right now in Manchester, but is benefiting from playing with Toffoli. I’m pretty sure Pearson/Loktionov/Toffoli would be equally impressive. I would like to see King/Loktionov/Toffoli as a third line, but no one is listening to me. It’s going to be Stoll, I fear, despite the obvious logic of getting rid of him.

But then we wouldn’t be Flyers West anymore, and that can’t possibly happen. :-)

Don’t forget about Vey. Kid is good.
Why not go Kopitar-Carter-Richards-Lewis down the middle, roll the top three lines relatively equally, and see how and which of Toffoli, Andreoff, Vey or Pearson can do the job filling out the wings?

At least Lokti will get a chance to play somewhere else. Nope, that’s still depressing. Sigh.

I did not like Stoll’s cap hit before and like it less even now. Makes more sense to roll Kopitar, Carter, and Richards (Philly used Richards like that that in 2010). But Lombardi is always going on about how he’s a “glue guy.”
