He goes overboard. Flip will be a 50 point player if he's lucky this season.

BUT tell me, why should it be all about points? You saw how good defensively he is, he's good on faceoffs, he plays our puck ppossession style beautifully. Flip's a darn good hockey player even if he doesn't reach his offensive potential.

I agree. I've never suggested that He's not a real solid player and a great, potentially Selke-level defensive forward. I've just never seen him becoming the offensive powerhouse some suggest he will be. And the only reason I've suggested trading him is even a compliment to him in some ways. I think he's worth far more to most other teams than Detroit as we are already so deep when it comes to two way centers so i think we could get the best return without giving away an elite guy like D or Z. It's not that i don't like the guy or think he's a bad hockey player at all.

Oh, and of course i give him more grief mostly because buddy Z D C is incessantly overzealous in his defense. Its just too easy.

hey I know, let's take more slappers from bad angles and wrist shots while the shooter is even with the goal line....those always go in.... :blink:

But seriously, the stars of this team need to show up with a killer instinct here. Maybe the long road trip is affecting them more than we're realizing. At least they've looked mostly ok on defense.
