rooting for Gritty to do something cool

[Limeyjim]

This will be another loss. Hakstol will still be behind the bench, and Hextall will still be giving Hak a nod of approval. The endless cycle of mediocrity will continue, and the boos will fall on deaf ears. The Flyers organisation don't care if the fans complain, as long as they still show up at each home game.
Just as the endless goaltending troubles continue, and have been ongoing since Hextall retired from his playing career, this team will be held back by second rate goaltending, and a defense that can't seem to clear the puck from their zone.

 

[Here4ThaLids]

Need to see more of this, especially if you have seats behind the bench:

 

[FlyerNutter]

As always, burn baby burn

 

[Tripod]

Haks 2nd last game.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

This is going to be exponentially more gross than anything we have seen this season, getting waterboarded by these typhoon****s.

Re: ^

"Nah, Hughes has to go back. An extra year of development never hurt anybody."

 

[YamCork]

Aren't the Rangers suppose to be in a rebuild?

How are they this much better than the Flyers already?

 

[Embiid]

We aint gonna get Hughes even if we are the worst in the league...the hockey gods gifted us the Patrick pick against huge odds already.

 

[Bruckuss]

That tandem makes me want to stress drink.

Going to the game in Toronto sat night, look for a drunk guy in the lower bowl with an Orange Leclair jersey lol

 

[BigToe]

Honestly I didn’t think we could be this bad.

 

[Beef Invictus]

I did not know there was a black friday song

 

[MacDonald4MVP]

How come they don't suck when they hired college coach?

Mediocrity is a strech at this point when Flyers are second to last in conference and 28th in the league.

Lindblom Patrick Jake
JVR Pimp simmer
Laughts Varone NAK


Prov Hagg
Sanheim gudas

Stolarz, (your turn)
Hart (your next)
Lyons (try again)
Pickard (Marazek all over again)
Elliot (play hurt)
Neuvy (alive still?)



Dont care how. dont care why. Weise, Lehtera, Weal can fight for the press box spot. The other 2 can be sent to siberia. And Yes! Lets give Varone a try. Why not? We are not winning with what we have now. Amac can just be sent home and told to stay there. Folin can go to the phantoms.

Fire Every coach and make Knob interm and hire anybody else to assist. I do not care who as long as our staff as is is gone!!!!!!!!! Done with this emotionless team.
Sanheim to pp2 also. Provorov needs to PK and play a regular shift .

And for the love of God SHUT UP BILL CLEMENT YOU IDIOT.

 

[Garbage Goal]

Varone is a guy I completely forgot we had.

 

[Garbage Goal]

Aren't the Rangers suppose to be in a rebuild?

How are they this much better than the Flyers already?

First year of it too. I’m told rebuilds take time though, five years is the bare minimum.

 

[Sombastate]

First year of it too. I’m told rebuilds take time though, five years is the bare minimum.

5 years into the rebuild is when the rebuild is 5 years away, haven't you heard?

 

[MorgantiDrinksBlood]

Yeah, I’ll absolutey admit I’ve been over the top in my criticism sometimes, as we all are sometimes.. and I have never went after Hextall, I thought what he was doing was smart and would lead to results. But at this point I’m done, he’s not doing what is in the best interest of our team and he’s completely sabatoging the talent we do have and it’s f***ing sickening. Every moment Hakf*** is our coach, is another second Hextall spits right in our god damn faces, I’m done watching until Hak is gone.

 

[Legion of Gloom]

Happy Thanksgiving....A Flyers win would make me more happy but I doubt it.

 

[dats81]

We aint gonna get Hughes even if we are the worst in the league...the hockey gods gifted us the Patrick pick against huge odds already.

Anyway, Jack Hughes does nothing for a team with no goaltending and spotty defense.

 

[Harhis]

Anyway, Jack Hughes does nothing for a team with no goaltending and spotty defense.

Even if Hak was gifted an all star team he wouldn't win PO series.
