Also beloved former Flyer hat-wearer Petr Mrazek.

 

[gertbfrobe16]

free at last free at last, thank god almighty, we're free at last. from this horrible season of flyers hockey.

 

[Surrounded By Ahos]

Also beloved former Flyer hat-wearer Petr Mrazek.

Aye. What a job he did wearing that hat

 

[Rich Nixon]

Aye. What a job he did wearing that hat

I did appreciate his hat choice. From day one he just wore that same monochrome Adidas snapback for all of his starts, no mesh-walled Fanatics bullshit, just a nice clean flatbrim. A door operator with taste.

 

[Rodu58]

just forfeit and save the fans from having to watch

He must be right, no one who wears suits like that could be lying.

Let the nightmare end, the suffering has gone on long enough.

 

[DancingPanther]

alright boys, let's end it on a bad note here. It all comes down to this. The fate of the entire free world rests on this tilt. This tilt is THE SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT MATCH IN THE HISTORY OF THIS EARTH'S CELESTIAL ROTATION.

This is a must lose. There is no other way. If Hagg and Elliot aren't in, I don't even know what the f*** to say.

loved it when i lived down there, in middlesex, even though they have sheetz and no wawa.

 

[Strawberry Fields]

Don't cry because it happened, smile because it's over.

 

[baudib1]

I'm not convinced this season will ever end. What did we do to deserve this??

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Definitely a must lose. For both the chance to get the #10 pick and a better chance for Gordon to not come back next season.

 

[Gert B Frobe]

Haven't watched the last few games. That's the most games I have completely missed in about 20 years. I watched some of Morin's first game but he barely saw the ice and they started losing so I shut it off in disgust. At least the last couple of weeks have shown everyone that the team won't play hard for each other, or for the coach. Hopefully Fletcher realizes this and gets clears out some players and brings in a real coach.

See you all next season

[Branko]

I had the worst dream last night.

It was mid-November. Dave Hakstol appointed Cal Pickard as the Flyers starter for a key divisional matchup. Jori Lehtera was there. He was doing coke with our 1LW, Dale Weise. Andrew MacDonald came into the room and said "let me get some boys, I have to play 20 minutes tonight."

Then I realized, no way could that ever come true.
