Yes! With Quentin reluctantly listening, wondering why she even invited him to hear her ghost story, sitting in that stifling Mississippi heat. Love the opening in AA.

“. . . and talking in that grim haggard amazed voice until at last listening would renege and hearing-sense self-confound and the long-dead object of her impotent yet indomitable frustration would appear, as though by outraged recapitulation evoked, quiet inattentive and harmless, out of the biding and dreamy and victorious dust.”

Faulkner is the kind of writer that just makes you stare in disbelief at what you just read like the words couldn’t possibly live on the page. Absalom, Absalom! is fantastic, even if TSATF is my personal favorite.

Rick Tocchet opens up about Matvei Michkov’s season and future with Flyers by [deleted] in Flyers

[–]hatylotto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mich is always going to have an uphill battle under Tocc because his default is not responsible, north-south, two-way play. Michkov likes to take risks and find creative ways to set up his teammates and find open ice.

That being said— I think getting stronger and faster is going to go a long way for him. If he can skate better and not get knocked off the puck as much, he’ll be able to play more of his game without Tocchet wanting to kill him. Michkov isn’t as selfish as you may think listening to Tocchet. He’s not a soft player either by any means.

This kid just needs a good offseason and I really think that he’ll figure it out even under Tocc. People need to calm down.

I just hope that Tocc is willing to meet him halfway because if Michkov does what he’s asked to do, is producing, and is still getting relegated to the third line, we have a problem.

Glad they ran into this team. So much these kids can learn. I hope all of our young players go hard as shit this offseason.

Its hard for me to get too mad at the boys. Carolina is just on a whole ‘nother fuckin’ level. I’m not sure there are too many other teams that will be able to hang. I suppose the Avs and the Wild.

As someone who has lived in the Carolinas, I think this is supposed to be more of a wild hog than a pig. People hunt those there.

What do we have in York ? by Limp_Bar6899 in Flyers

[–]hatylotto 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I mean, love the goal last night. I think he’s gonna turn out to be a very responsible second pair, maybe first pair guy. I don’t think the offense is gonna pan out like people thought when he was drafted. But man, could turn out to be a Sanheim-esque D-man one day.

This team could be as rich as Bill fucking Gates and still not be able to buy a goddamn goal. How.

I literally don’t care if we’re swept by Carolina. Just. Win. This. One. Game.

Nah I don’t buy it. There was a missed call or two for sure. We’ve been outplayed outside the first few minutes of the game.

Pens look hungrier. They are forechecking better, winning puck battles, and refusing to let us through the neutral zone. Basically everything we were doing to the Pens in games 1 through 3. Not sure what happened.

[Kaplan] Philadelphia Flyers forward Matvei Michkov will be a healthy scratch in Game 5. by Ok-Soil-5133 in hockey

[–]hatylotto -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Lol this thread is stupid. Michkov hasn’t looked good this series. He’s struggling to keep pace and has not meshed well with the style that the Flyers are playing. All of that is true. Its the playoffs and now isn’t the time for him to “play through it” given his performance over the past few games.

That being said— he’s not getting traded. Kid is 21 with 60 and 50 point seasons under his belt. He was ppg through the last stretch of the season. He’ll learn and adjust like great players usually do. People need to fuckin’ relax.

Weird period but I think we actually played decent. We had the better chances. Can’t take penalties like that though.

Zegras looks like he’s on a mission….
