[Coalregion12]

Hey Keith, isn't that why you ice a team with veteran presence? To deal with adversity?

Boom, you nailed it right there. That is the question I would ask as a reporter.

 

[Flyerfan4life]

Most of the team is AHL quality.

and gunna be resigned to be here next year

 

[Flyerfan4life]

Wild fan (so kind of like a 2nd cousin at this point) in peace. I'm trying to understand why Fletcher (and Yeo to a lesser degree) have a job right now.... what gives?

Dino org. gunna dino

Out did yourself Capt'n..........

Super Excellent

I just thought of the Animals ~1965 with a great song that reminds of would we should all be doing......



I beginning to think MSE has a fetish for Audrey/ Holly Golightly........you do know in Truman Capote's novel by the same name, Holly does go to South America........

My fetish woman for now is.....Kelli Giddish.....

 

[Tripod]

average age of the line-up tonight - 28.5. That is ancient by hockey standards. Only one person under 23

And just think, not playing were a 37, 32, 31, 29, and 29 year olds on the roster.....and 3 of them are "core" players.

 

[FLYguy3911]

I really don't know how they looked at the team last year, had the offseason they had, and expected to compete. This team is both bad and without a clear direction moving forward.

"We're in a good spot"

Nothin a blank check won’t fix!

Culture. This is the culture they want. This is the clear direction they want going forward. They WANT this.

Well good night for the Tank if nothing else....

 

[Flyerfan4life]

Well good night for the Tank if nothing else....

no point in tanking if the org actualy wants a basement team full of old washed up vets and AHL tryhards..

another 1st overall will be ruined here

Bobby Clarke is the greatest disaster to befall this franchise. He's filled it with Holmgrens, Lombardi's, Fletcher's, and countless other minions who lust for a return to an imagined pre-1979 era they've idealized in their diseased heads.

And because Fletcher is his crony and the team governor doesn't give a shit, he's going to be allowed to destroy the team for the next decade.

 

[deadhead]

A lot of silliness here. The TDL is two weeks away, they have to play Brassard to get his legs back and have any value. Same with Brown, et al.

Laughton line was the best line, the G and Brassard lines struggled.
Risto outplayed Sanheim this game. Which is good, we want him to have two good weeks.
Hart had a so-so game.

In two weeks this team will look very different.

You’re constant trust in the competence of the front office is bewildering.

no one doubts that the team will look different in two weeks, no one except you trusts that the moves the front office makes will improve the team outlook in the future. Fletcher has no record of success anywhere in his NHL career that would give hope otherwise.

 

[1865]

How will this team win a single game after they trade G?

Here's to that not happening.

 

[1865]

Yeo is a loser. Fire him now.

Yeo is a loser, keep him for the rest of the season.

 

[Kelmitchell2]

I haven’t watched a full game in almost 3 months. I’ve never been as frustrated with a franchise as I am right now. Everyone in the front office can f*** off and hit the road, 85% of the roster can as well.


I don’t even know if frustrated is the right word. I’m f***ing pissed off. Chuck and friends can f*** off

Unfortunately we are stuck until Clarke dies

"We're in a good spot"

Look at how they finished last year:
last 41 games after Lake Tahoe, the team played pretty well, the goalies were putrid.

"Win today and we walk together forever." The ominous side of this quote continues to play out with the front office.

 

[ponder719]

Carter pitching a shutout?

 

[deadhead]

I've been told Frost is the savior, once G is gone he'll step out of the shadows and prove the doubters wrong.

 

[SuchySays]

damn Provorov blows

 

[Psuhockey]

damn Provorov blows

They really need to just blow it all up at this point. It seems the longer someone is in the Flyers system the worse they get.

 

[1865]

damn Provorov blows

He hasn't always blown. It's worth sticking with him unless we can get a good return. I'm confident he'll rebound with better support.

 

[Crescent Street]

Can we just delete the Flyers forum? They don't even deserve the digital storage they are occupying on the internet.
