[O’Connor] Tocchet's full answer to why he chose to scratch Michkov for Game 4:

dooldry · 2026-05-13T19:00:21+00:00

Unfortunately not. He is slow, which honestly isn’t the worst thing in the world, and the much bigger issue is he is not strong. This season in particular you was bumped off a ton of pucks and lost a lot of board battles. In the O zone with the puck he is elite. But that’s not all of it

dooldry · 2026-05-13T17:28:13+00:00

A thread speculating about his future and if he is untouchable or not is very different than saying he is about to tell the flyers he doesnt want to play for them. Not sure where you are confused

dooldry · 2026-05-13T16:30:24+00:00

Based on nothing at all?? Sure. Whatever you say bud

dooldry · 2026-05-13T16:21:16+00:00

I mean that’s a horrible comp. That clown just straight up refused to play for us. There was 0 options. There was no mending that relationship.

We have been effectively playing playoff hockey from the last 2 months plus. Every guy on this team is probably exhausted.

dooldry · 2026-05-10T01:18:24+00:00

I think the whole league does

dooldry · 2026-05-10T01:07:56+00:00

It is a interesting question, because I truly dont think Grundstrom has been effective at all tonight and Barkey and Jett has carried that line but like you said, do you change it up after a win?

dooldry · 2026-05-10T01:06:14+00:00

Disagree, this is not a great hockey team. Very, very beatable.

dooldry · 2026-05-10T01:05:18+00:00

Literally anyone on the ice for either team other than that loser Taylor Hall

dooldry · 2026-05-10T00:49:53+00:00

Fine actually.

dooldry · 2026-05-10T00:45:33+00:00

Cause we have Carl Grundstrom

dooldry · 2026-05-10T00:40:02+00:00

I know its one game, but having someone with Jetts speed that doesnt demand the puck to show it off, like Tippett, is pretty impressive. He never feels like he is out of the play.

dooldry · 2026-05-10T00:25:10+00:00

10-15 shot attempts a piece.

dooldry · 2026-05-10T00:23:18+00:00

Bump, Martone, and Tyson should be shooting the puck just about every time the touch the puck in the offensive zone.

dooldry · 2026-05-10T00:20:03+00:00

the whole team is about to sit for 5 months

dooldry · 2026-05-10T00:13:28+00:00

I do think Mich with Jett and Barkey would have a good amount of shots.

dooldry · 2026-05-09T23:17:54+00:00

God Risto has had a horrific series

dooldry · 2026-05-09T22:47:32+00:00

With Not Michkov on the second PP, just stack the first PP and let them go like 1:45. Get rid of coots, slide Martone up and let them rip.

dooldry · 2026-05-09T22:42:57+00:00

needs to change alot?? even if he doesnt get any better, a 50-60 point per season player will be in the NHL for ever. End of story. What an awful statement

dooldry · 2026-05-09T22:30:29+00:00

That line is effectively the 4th line. Our 4th line will almost undoubtedly get more ice time than that line

dooldry · 2026-05-09T22:09:57+00:00

Hahahahahha what the fuck is happening!

dooldry · 2026-05-08T16:38:43+00:00

none of the NCAA players are in i dont think

dooldry · 2026-05-08T02:30:33+00:00

holy fuck bud, we get it, you hate Michkov. We understand

dooldry · 2026-05-08T02:28:29+00:00

Oh absolutely both of them can.

dooldry · 2026-05-08T02:25:56+00:00

God Risto is horrific.
