First blog in quite awhile for me. But today I am going to be doing my predictions for every notable player on the Flyers roster today. Please note that these are if every player plays 82 games, which will NOT be happening. So give/take 5-10 Goals less! I will also be including the players +/- stat.
FORWARDS
Giroux: 30 G, 75 A, 105 P, +13
Hartnell: 40 G, 32 A, 72 P, +20
Voracek: 23 G, 45 A, 68 P, +15
Briere: 25 G, 40 A, 65 P, +8
Schenn: 20 G, 35 A, 55 P, +5
Simmonds: 28 G, 27 A, 55 P, +3
Read: 25 G, 30 A, 55 P, +18
Couts: 18 G, 27 A, 45 P, +20
Talbot: 15 G, 15 A, 30 P, +5
Feds: 10 G, 15 A, 25 P, +8
Wellwood: 10 G, 12 A, 22 P, +5
Rinaldo, Sestito will both have around 5-10 Points each.
DEFENCEMEN
Timonen: 5 G, 40 A, 45 P, +12
Mezzy: 10 G, 30 A, 40 P, +10
Coburn: 5 G, 25 A, 30 P, +15
Schenn: 4 G, 21 A, 25 P, +3
Grossmann: 2 G, 18 A, 20 P, +2
GOALIES
Bryz: 65 GS, 39-18-8, 5 SO, 2.45 GAA, .912-.914 Save %
Leighton: 17 GS, 8-6-3, 1 SO, 2.55-2.65 GAA, .907-.910 Save %
TOTAL: 47-24-11= 105 Points (2 Point increase)
EQUATES TO 275 Goals, 11 more than last year. Remember, give/take 7-12 goals b/c of injuries!
Please also note that only 3 players in the top 9 FW, and 5 D were minuses last year (JVR, Simmonds at -1, B. Schenn at -7)
So My projection: Flyers finish 4th in the conference, and will play the Pens in the 1st round of the playoffs, again!
