Flight Plan: behind the scenes web videos

The Flyers will unveil a new web video series called "Flight Plan," a behind-the-scenes look at the team starting tomorrow, Tuesday August 6th. Sounds pretty cool.

Thanks for the heads up on this !

Wow, there goes my thought about the Flyers never getting involved in this type of thing after 24/7. Haha.

Seriously, I thought it would be a bit longer before they did this again. My guess is if Bryz is still around they don't do it.

Oh crap, sorry for starting a second thread. I looked and didn't see anything, my bad.

I can forgive you for the low cost of 75 US dollars.

Does anyone know if they are just going to be like 5 minute webisodes or legit 20-30 minute episodes? Aren't those Oil Change videos the Oilers do like 45 minutes?

I would assume they're going to be about an hour long. What's the point of doing 5 minute episodes for something like this?

@Say_yeah91
@AnthonySan37 how long will each episode be?

@AnthonySan37
@Say_yeah91 We're starting short: 8-10 minutes… but I could see them getting longer down the road.

Yeah that's kind of what I figured. I wasn't really expecting hour long 24/7 type episodes with HBO production values, but I was hoping for more than just a 5 minute quick look. Hopefully they get some good inside access in those 8-10 minutes and build on it going forward.

"The pilot episode, titled The War Room will give viewers insider access into the strategies and discussions for the 2013 NHL Entry Draft that took place in June. The episode centers around a meeting 48 hours before the draft. Director of Scouting Chris Pryor leads the discussion with input from General Manager Paul Holmgren and the chief scouts affiliated with the organization to determine the final rankings of the draft eligible players and zero in on which ones would best fit the team’s future needs."

So pumped for this tonight. Can't wait to hear what Holmgren, Pryor and the scouts have to say about the players.

 

[Flyerss]

only 10min c'mon

 

[RJ8812*]

don't see the point of 10 minute episodes

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Honestly, since it's airing tonight, what do you expect for being in the off-season? Not that much to talk about.

 

[Prongo]

I wonder if we will see them adjusting their off season plans leading into free agency with Vinny L being bought out. Maybe not this episode, but they will probably have a free agency episode too I hope. That will give us a great look at what they intend to do rolling into the FA period.

really?

-the draft
-deciding to buy-out Bryz & Briere
-signing Emery and Lecavalier

It would be funny to find out that Holmgren's signing of Lecavalier was akin to the disinterested schlub buying a painting at an auction while he was trying to flag down a waiter.

If it's being sponsored by the Flyers I doubt they touch the buyouts. We'll have a better idea of what these things are going to be like after tonight's episode but I think they'll be more like 10 minute puff pieces than actual insider views.

Agreed. I'm anticipating much more PR than Big Brother.

 

[Beef Invictus]

I hope it's 10 minutes of reminiscing about Riley Cote.

I hope it's 10 minutes of reminiscing about Riley Cote.

So 10 minutes of clips showing him getting his ass beat?

Or a 10 minute piece on him ktfo of Roy?

he's got a smoking hot wife though. Or were they also a product of that infamous Florida holiday?

Or perhaps 10 minutes about that one goal he scored.

followed by a video of The Klotz

Nm.

Okay, that was awesome.

They talk "just like we do."

They liked Morin more then Mueller. They liked Morin's nastiness, although Greig had Mueller higher-- but they agree Morin has more upside "if he hits". Also thought that Morin knows what he is more than Nurse, but is more of a project. Like that Morin is 6'8 and mean. Consensus is Morin is the pick.

They change the chart and move Morin up:

Morin
Mueller
Zad
Nurse
Risto
Monahan
Morrisey

Them moving Monahan so far down, Homer remarks that they're fading under pressure of choice.
