  1. "I can't see nothing too much wrong with that" Up-Dutch compliment.
  2. Of current topic, do the Flyers have a second round draft pick in this draft as compensation for not signing O'Brien?
  3. Unfortunately the teams offering reported first and/or second round picks are the top 5 or 6 teams this year, meaning that the picks they are offering are at slotted at number 26 to 32. How many players selected with picks taken this late in the first round turn into stars, or even top six forwards or top four defensemen?
  4. I am repulsed by the supposed actions of these players. I still have to ask, not knowing Canadian law, but doesn't double jeopardy apply here?
  5. And just like that the Flyers loose their franchise goalie. Poof, Gone!
  6. Uh! I think that the Flyers actually have a defense. Who would have thunk!
  7. Thanks to the founders. They have done an incredible job of keeping the site clean and relevant.
  8. I thought about this and began to realize If the Flyers end up drafting tenth, which I suspect is possible, the players have to play well. That means that the team and individual players are playing well enough to entice other teams to look favorably them at the trading deadline.
  9. Pierre Lebrun "Agent Marc Levine says his client Shayne Gostisbehere “will not be resigning with Carolina will now go to July 1.” The blue liner will be UFA on Saturday. Do we sign him?
  10. With the exception of Torts the rest of the management team (decision makers) are significantly younger. At least that's a start.
  11. I've been following this thread from its inception. It is surprising there are so many on here chasing the next shiny new potential star. If we have learned anything it is that to consistently win the team needs steady goaltending. The Flyers have gone years without success. So yeah, lets trade Hart our 7th pick and any combination/s of all our best players to move up 2 to 4 spots in the draft. Hart may be traded, but the only reason Hart should be traded is if he has developed a really poor attitude and does not want to be here!
  12. I was worried that he returned after his first stroke. Now that he has had a second stroke I hope he enjoys his retirement. He has had a wonderful career. This also brings up questions regarding the Penguins medical staff. Typically it is not a good idea to allow anyone to return to a job, after a stroke, where they will get their head knocked around!
  13. Howie, I hit that point last year. I have been a fan since their second year, but now I follow them if I have nothing else to do. So sad to see this storied franchise self destruct.
  14. I haven't posted in awhile. I guess that I was too frustrated with the Flyers to have any investment in them. The management of the teams is crazy. The Flyers dealt Shayne Gostisbehere who had a 4.5 million dollar contract to the Coyotes, along with a 2022 second-round pick and the 2022 seventh-round pick for the 2022 season, then turn around at the end the season and acquire Tony Angelo for second, third and fourth round picks and pay him five million dollars a year. The players are similar except that Ghost had a good reputation. So in effect they paid two second, a third, fourth and seventh round picks for a player with similar profiles and an additional half a million dollars a year. Who is guarding the hen house?
  15. I guess that I am not the only saddened fan. Is there any hope for our Flyers?
  16. I've followed the Flyers since their second year. This is the first time that I have lost hope for them. Things have changed. I attended my first game in many years. It was hard to follow the game. "Fans" were returning to their seats ten minutes into the period and were leaving their seats with five minutes to go in the period. Everything is different, the fans, the team and the management. I feel sad. If there is any hope for the Flyers, it's time for a total rebuild, but I don't see it in the Flyers genes.
  17. I recently received an email from Hockey TV. I had never heard of them before receiving their email. they purport to carrying all NHL games thoughout the seasons plus all the playoff games. I cut the cord which leaves me without a source other than ESPN+, which does not cover all the games I wish to view. Does anyone have any experience with Hockey TV?
  18. Howie, It sounds like it's time to find a new doctor!
  19. Does anyone have the internet feed for tonights game?
