Bruh. That was me.

That's why you're the best mod.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

That's why you're the best mod.

It’s why I’m everyone’s favorite mod, definitely not the best though.

Anyone that says otherwise will be banned.

 

[Tripod]

I don't get the joke....

 

[Beef Invictus]

Updated the thread title to reflect game time.

Is that Celsius Time?

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Is that Celsius Time?

Not just any Celsius Time, it's CanadianFlyer88 Celcius Time™.

 

[Beef Invictus]

Not just any Celsius Time, it's CanadianFlyer88 Celcius Time™.

I endorse this.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Only 3 days til our next game...

But it’s at 10PM.

Nah, my schedule says 7pm.

Is this like that stupid Celsius thing you people do

I’m trying to figure out if that makes you in the future or the past...

It’s hurting my brain.

I don't get the joke....

Here you go.

 

[Tripod]

Here you go.

Thank you.

But where is Hagg's heaviness on that chart. Must not have had room for him

Remember what I said in our convo yesterday, I maintain certain powers and privileges.

Remember as a kid staying up late around this time of the year (Canadian Thanksgiving) only to watch that flyers guy slash a Canuck right in the face lol

Jesse Boulerice cross checking Kesler in October 2007?

That game also included a 5-on-3 shorty by Richards. Outside of Boulerice, that was the most entertaining Flyers-Canucks game I have attended (an 8-2 win).

ya that’s the one. I thought it was earlier then 07 tho lol

 

[Sombastate]

Guys, these two games have been funner than i remember any of last season being (save the outdoor game, which was fun based on outcome).

This team looks like a team

 

[BiggE]

Odd that they would go on a west coast swing with only 12 healthy forwards under contract. Wonder if Welinski gets cleared and waived today, and if so another forward is called up and heads to Vancouver tomorrow?

Yup, the math clearly checks out

I feel like there was a stretch where every year the Flyers would play in Vancouver on NYE (or close to it) and generally smoke them.

Ahh, that was backinaday when I had to *listen* to Flyers games and look at the boxscores in the newspaper TWO days later because the game ended so late.

How did we SURVIVE pre-internet??

It’s infinite

...starting to look like...

The exact character at which his dumb name popped into my head. And needless to say I had no idea Canadian Thanksgiving existed.

 

[Curufinwe]

I'd like to know if Welinksi went with the team to Vancouver.

There was, it went back a ways.

12/31/95: 5-5 T
12/31/96: 5-3 W
12/31/97: 8-0 W
12/31/98: 6-2 W
12/29/99: 3-2 OTW
12/31/01 2-1 W

I remember my dad would tape those games for me. On the VCR. Back when the Nucks were the weird black and red and yellow skate-planet team.

 

[Juicy Pop]

If we're going to drop a game out West then it's probably going to be this one. The Nucks are seriously good right now even though I don't think they're a playoff team after 82 games.

 

[Rich Nixon]

As frustrating as this schedule has been, the Rangers have an actual 7-day week between their 2nd and 3rd games. Last played October 5th, play again on October 12th. Who the f*** made this schedule.

You mean these bad boys?

 

[flyersnorth]

How about these beauties?

I remember I had a pair at the time.

"If you ever fell you gained speed with the nylon long pants," Barber said. "You didn't have any grab on the ice. You picked up speed, not slowed down."

Holmgren said, "Not like we blocked shots like players do today, but if you went down to slide to block a shot wearing those things, you slid a lot further. You'd slide yourself right out of position. So there was some getting used to it in that regard."
