@@jonstoetzel9720 same, I feel likeLaughton will have a bounce back season this year. He can be an effective penalty killer so he is useful in the lineup for that reason and the fact he can spring short handed opportunities. Either way I doubt Jett makes the team so I don't think it'll matter much
Last night on RDS (French sport channel) Briere spoke to Marc Denis (comentator) he said hes already have people in the organization wanting to keep Luchanko for at least the 9 games
If he keeps up his good play, I’d give him the 9 game tryout just to see how he is against true NHLers. Most likely he’d go back to juniors knowing what he needs to work on……that is unless he kills it on his tryout??
I think this is the way to go, open up his confidence to know "I can compete at this level, these are the things I need to do to stick here next year" let him build his all around game and dominate juniors. But you're right if he keeps playing like this and proves to everyone he's not going anywhere? There's worse scenarios than him playing with the big club
In the long run, Danny needs to determine if sending him back is the best chance to make in a 1C eventually. He's not getting 1st or 2nd line minutes on the Flyers. He'll be getting 20+ minutes in Juniors, playing in all situations, and maybe World Juniors. I think that playing time and experience potentially gets us that 1C over playing 3rd or 4th line playing time in the NHL.
players are developing younger and they know how to stay fit at an early age ......the hockey IQ is really key here . if he is good to stay and make you better you keep him here
I wanted this kid back in May....was siked when we drafted him. Then fairweather fans kept thinking we drafted Scott Laughton 2.0. No guys, we got ourselves a gem. The question is, does his development get better on a dumpster fire Guelph team? Or playing on the 3rd line with guys like Bobby and Joel?
It's not one size fits all. I can't stand this notion that, unless someone is a #1 overall generational player, then automatically the "best place for their development" is another X number of years in juniors.
Matt Read was a perfect 2 way 3rd line winger that could PK, had great speed, and scored more than 20 goals...for 3 years. Than he fell off pretty quick. Sad because from 2011-14 he was a terrific 3rd liner.
@@JSpiffy never said he wasn't. Just that 28 is a little young for a guy to fall off. Though I believe he suffered an injury around 2014/15 that affected his skating.
The big difference between Coots and Jett is the physical maturity of Luchanko. He is a physically mature player with great wheels. Coots was no t physical mature and was also not a great skater. Coots had to learn to be good defensively. Luchanko already knows how to play defense.
Farabee - Jett - Brink sounds like a fantastic third line
wheres is Laughton gonna be? traded?
@@jonstoetzel97204th line center? 4th line winger?
@@bdawk511 I would still like the Phoeling, Hathaway, Deslauriers line

Hé almost the best center of the team and he just 18 and only Right Side center very important, if he continue like that I keep this Guy 🤔👍🏒

Since Coots is slow and washed up, he can be the third line center, Luchenko second line and Frost first line.

He really doesn’t need to be on the team this year. No space, and no point
Bill you were pissed when they drafted him, hopefully he’s changed your tune
Love that we’re having this conversation when so many people were bitching and moaning that he was a reach/bad pick. Silence the haters, Jett!

Slow your roll people. We all want the Flyers to be great again .
Jett has been the most impressive player at camp but I'm giving it a 0% chance he plays for the Flyers this year.

He was 24 when they brought him up

Well you keep him up for the 9 games and if plays good there really isn't much to talk about

Maybe he plays a few regular season then gets sent down
Two games in. FFS let’s tamper this shit. “This good, this late”?!!? Two games in!!!!
He means this "late" into camp, games included, but yeah I agree you can't call it "late" yet
Best players make the team.. Thats obviously the best move..
....failure to launch
