Did not disappoint!

 

[Beef Invictus]

It’s so much worse in person Highlights is Jumbo Jet dog and me giving that piece of shit the bird

Did you unhinge your jaw and swallow that whole glizzy like a pill

 

[FanForLife]

So that's 7 in a row losses I've witnessed live. . 7-1, 7-3, 4-1, 4-0, 4-0, the 2 shutouts this year. Thousands of miles travelled, over 3 grand in tickets for me and my party(I pay since I'm dragging them to games), all under Chuck f***ing Fletcher. This f***ing team truly sucks. Really no need to go into deal, they're just bad, you've seen it.

I assume Yandle, but they have multiple pieces of shit. And, agreed, so much worse in person. Depressing.

Going back 30+ years, the Flyers has had eight picks in single digits.

1990 Mike Ricci - 4
1991 Peter Forsberg -- 6
1992 Ryan Sittler -- 7
2002 Joni Pitkanen -- 4
2007 James van Riemsdyk -- 2
2011 Sean Couturier -- 8
2015 Ivan Provorov -- 7
2017 Nolan Patrick -- 2

The team is on the clock. They desperately need an impact player at some point.

This pick is absolutely critical. No doubt about it.

What happened to the bowl cut guy?

"Bad thing is only one game remains to improve upon the stat."

This is one of the dumbest things I have ever read.

[BigToe]

Never say never

That is such an awful drafting record. Wow.

We traded away 5 of our 8 top picks. Ricci and Forsberg got us Lindros, but Ricci and Forsberg got cups.

There's one legitimate star in that list that we kept - Coots.

JVR would have been an OK pick had the Flyers been patient (Ha!) and not traded him for a shit sandwich.

But yeah, pretty terrible. Coots, Provorov and Patrick should have been the current core of the team. Look how that’s turned out.

 

[mr4tno]

C'mon Seattle!

Ironically, the Pittsburg win may wind up being the cause of picking 5th (7th) rather than 4th (6th)

 

[Larry44]

Bottom 5 finish confirmed. 1 point swing to finish no higher than 4th.

With some luck, could even be passed by Seattle.

Bottom 4 finish at min. confirmed. 29th overall. Accidental tank worked.

If Flyers win and NJ lose out, the Devils win the tiebreaker with 27 wins to Flyers' 26.

If Seattle gets 3 points in last two games, they would also pass the Flyers based on wins in regulation (assuming Flyers lose vs Ottawa.

Flyers can actually try to win vs. Ottawa and it won't affect the lottery placing, but losing would be better in case the Kraken grabs a few points to get to 61. We'll see.

[Diaper Mask Bandits]

That Ryan Sittler pick bothers me. Didn't they blow another pick in that same draft? Jason Bowen or someone around 15?

If they nailed those picks the entire history of the franchise could have changed; ie. add those players to the Lindros team

Not to mention Clarke threw away valuable assets on Pat Falloon and Alexander Daigle...... Management didn't maximize the roster potential of that Lindros team.

Flyers have had horrible management since Clarke took over in 85.
That 80s team was mainly due to Mccammon's drafting.

 

[Rebels57]

Gromp is definitely happening. Never a healthy scratch.

The only uncertainty Tater Thomps is whether he gets a 1 year or a 2 year extension.

That entire 1st round, and really the whole draft, was one of the worst in the last 30 years. Hell, Yashin ended up the leading scoring forward of that draft class with 781 points. I don't think much would have changed. Drafting Gonchar instead of Sittler would have been nice but Gonchar went 7 picks later and 1 before Bowen.

I hate Gonchar. Human people aren't named Gonchar. A back goiter full of teeth is called Gonchar.

Highlight of Gromps night, after warm ups were ending he came to throw a puck over the glass to a little bugger.

Legit it too the dipshit 3 attempts, he even sucks at being a good guy.

People always talk about 96 and 99 but wow, never realized how bad 92 was. Gonchar, Smith, and Straka were really the only NHL players taken the rest of the first round after the Flyers' first pick. I guess Marshall too but he certainly wouldn't be a needle mover.
