GDT: #2: FLYERS vs. Devils, Wednesday, Oct. 9, 2019, 7:30 pm ET

[Striiker]

Can we stop being incompetent cowards and ice the best possible roster for this game please?

Clearly health was not, and still is not, an excuse for this roster, so lets fix it and not pretend beating a crap Blackhawks team validates their mistakes.

 

[Qyburn]

Lose with Hughes.....

You need to replace that on your drive with this one. Even without Bruce Banner's fantastic arm extension, the expression on that chick's face might be my favorite part of the whole thing.

 

[Rodu58]

Simmer is on their 2nd line? Lol

for now...

The best part is easily the 90s kid in the top left corner. Theres so much going on in this picture. It should have won a Pulitzer

 

[Qyburn]

for now...

We can just hope and pray he'll be on PP1 ruining it until february.

 

[GapToothedWonder]

Holy photoshop.

Lol did they photo shoop Simmonds onto a jumbotron that didn't exist when he was a flyer?

 

[KrazyKat]

Could be a replay on the screen.

Simmonds against the Panthers on the Jumbotron.

Flyers vs. Ducks on the ice. I’m guessing that was from the 2016 home opener (I was there).

 

[Rich Nixon]

holy f*** this game isn't until 2022

 

[Rebels57]

@MiamiScreamingEagles what is the new goal song? I saw you post it somewhere but cant find it.

I am told it is or will be "Feel the Shake" by Jetboy.

 

[NYCFlyer]

Watched a chunk of the Debbies v Sabres game and the Debs look lost, uninspired, hopefully the Flyers run through them like a buzzsaw with their forecheck

Sabres looked good. Hughes is really gonna be good but he looked like a rookie and was playing with a couple of guys that can't really play with a player of his caliber.

 

[Maurice of Orange]

Sabres looked good.

Sabres started last season off good until about the middle of November then did a complete nose dive in the standings.

If Eichel can stay healthy and the defenseman remain healthy and intact Buffalo might actually be a team contending for a playoff spot down the stretch. I like the youngster Olafsson he’s doing good so far.

FROM THE PAST

​

GAME DAY THREAD MUSIC

"Welcome to Planet MF" by White Zombie
​

R I P

Andrew Wood



Yeah, ready to rock out

 

[Rebels57]

I am told it is or will be "Feel the Shake" by Jetboy.

Never even heard of it, but im not much of a hair metal fan. If they just play the chorus it should be fun. The verses are cringe-worthy.

 

[Embiid]

You need to replace that on your drive with this one. Even without Bruce Banner's fantastic arm extension, the expression on that chick's face might be my favorite part of the whole thing.

I actually still have the newspaper clipping from the Daily News laminated …..I had it hanging in my cubicle at work back in the day. I found it in a drawer in my house the other day. It was a classic event..

I actually like the first pic because it looks like there is a leg of a Flyers fan wearing what looks to be Flyers Zubaz shorts

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Only 3 more days guys!!!

 

[Here4ThaLids]

I am told it is or will be "Feel the Shake" by Jetboy.

They couldn't have saved a few bucks with a Mötley Crüe number?

 

[Embiid]

Flyers gonna kick some Devil arse….

 

[Qyburn]

I don't know what Zubaz shorts are but it's funny because that's what it sounds like Wanda Sykes is saying while she's waving her hand around. "Zzz Zzz Zzz Zzz all these white people buzzing around doing crayzzzy white people things I gots to not go to these things anymore"

These were very popular back in the 90's

Triggered.

Triggered.

Aroused.

I'm going to this game with about 20 people.. a few of which are devils fans. It may end up this way without any interference from outside of our own group.

 

[Rich Nixon]

This schedule is really damn weird and frustrating.

4 games in the first 15 days of the season.

9 games in the next 17 days after that.
