Post-Game Talk: #82 | Capitals at Flyers | April 16, 2024 | Loss

[Beef Invictus]

Yeah, I know. That's always been the problem. Thanks Staal.

To be fair he was right

Anyone else at least get a little joy in eliminating the Pens and Wings after unnecessarily pulling the goalie?

 

[renberg]

I think ownership is where this turnaround could happen...maybe the only place. Some rich guy...or gal!...with a massive ego who wants to win and show they are the alpha, a "look at me and F you" to everyone else... Just a thought.

I can’t see Comcast selling the Flyers now that they’re pushing to create a south Philly spots complex.

 

[Cmoneyflyguy]

I don't think Frost is going anywhere (or Torts obvi)

 

[ellja3]

This obviously hurts, but a bit less so, because clearly we had no business being as close to WC as we got - given the awful PP, goalie issues with stretch of 83 save% from Jan23 to beginning of April and 8 game losing streak. What a weird season this was.

Frost is not considered part of the Flyers' future rebuild. He's going to be traded, probably at the draft. For some reason, the organization doesn't like him.

FFS, for a stretch there, with Frost centering Tippett and TK, they were one of the best lines going. So that had to stop, created too many scoring chances.

For two years now, Frost has been the best offensive C, but he gets no respect. Similar to Ghost situation, albeit Ghost is a better talent. Someone else will benefit from Frost's development, it's not likely to be the Flyers.

I am not sure I can deal with another year with Torts and Rocky.

 

[snoop88]

Risto has never made the playoffs after 11 seasons in the league.

Love that stat

This is my thought. Even after sleeping on it. I really don’t think I can continue on with this trash coaching staff.

But playoff Risto will be fire!!!!! I was told by the REAL fans!

Seriously, what a f***ing awful, AWFUL contract/trade with him...

 

[FLYguy3911]

If you can't play Frost in a game where you need to score in the last period to avoid elimination, what's the point? It's just petty BS.

The kind of team that wants to value Ristolainen is the kind of team that is bad at building rosters

Tort's whole shtick is pettiness. That's his life blood.

This man is a Carolina Panthers fan. The odds on that not being the team to break you had to be astronomical.

(I cannot recommend detached bemusement enough. My whole fandom is a shitpost now. Love it.)

I guess part of the problem is I haven’t been able to watch a majority of the Panthers games so just seeing them be ass from “a far” is different.

Up until the last two seasons for the Flyers, I would watch 80%+ of the games but it’s just getting less and less and being local to Carolina now…. It’s harder to find ways to watch the Flyers without lagging & freezing.

John Tortorella is a necromancer.

John Tortorella is a necromancer.

And I’m a sadist for wanting to stick around and see just how low this organization can go. I’m looking forward to Torts as GM, Rocky as President and Lappy as Head Coach, playing Michkov on the 4th line to learn d.

your actually not far off from the actual future thats coming...

 

[BringBackHakstol]

Useless year, looking at this team's outlook is depressing. We've got middling prospects and a bunch of low picks. A bunch of negative value contracts for a few more years to boot. You could live with the last thing If they were sensibly stock piling assets in the meantime. But that makes too much sense for this backwards organization

That's an insult to nu-metal.
