^Pretty much what is true and what you should have said.

And Foligno challenged everyone? How do you know he was? Works both ways. Simmonds challenged him too and Schenn challenged him to go after they left the box (You can see him tell him that when he's skating to the box). Yet he didn't bother with him after they left the box or whenever he would have been on the ice against Simmonds. So basically, you are flaming.

You're picking and choosing is comical.

Yeah Hartnell fights some non fighters, but hey, they dropped the gloves too. If they drop the gloves they've made the effort to fight; guess what, it's fair game. Worrying about classes etc is a joke. A fights a fight. This was a fiar fight. If Foligno was so eager to fight why didn't he challenge him while on the ice at the same time of the hit? If Giroux was fighting Ott, I'd say the same thing. Gloves were dropped, thats what happens. Get over it dude.

And if Hartnell turns this down you come on and go "oh Hartnell turned down a non fighter and wouldn't own up for a dirty hit whine whine whine"

It could, but I'm thinking in terms of a more permanent situation for Sestito. Ideally, Rinaldo and Sestito are both dressed, as they complement each other well.

Wellwood needs to be sent down, and Laughton looks like he'll be good, but will probably be sent back to juniors this year. I'm sure he'd benefit from more time in juniors. So there's hope for the Flyers next week if Laviolette doesn't do anything stupid.

After 2 games, looks like Philly should be taken out of the "toughest team in 13" discussion. Hope they suit up Wellwood and Fedotenko against the B's.

Which he will do. He'll have the team claim a soft Euro off waivers.

And Broons, I'd take the team out too. You play to your strengths. Tough hockey is the strength of the FLyers if they'd use it. Unfortunately for whatever reason they keep hiring coaches who want nothing to do with it. I almost miss John Stevens.

Yep. Debatable if they should have been in the conversation to begin with.

I'm just crossing my fingers Philly at least dresses Sestito when it comes time to play the B's. Might be a little left over hostility from the Horton hit, and I'm sure Sestito wouldn't mind a chance to redeem himself against Lucic.

John Scott got the Andrew Peters treatment, 2:10 TOI, 30 or so seconds of which was at the end to make sure nothing happened.

You are correct sir.
This Cookie Monster/Tickle me Elmo cat doesn't know what the ish he's talking about, just ignore him.
Not a big Hartnell fan but that was just Stafford doing the rt thing and Hartnell obliging him.
Good for Stafford.
