Did you sleep at a Holiday Inn Express last night?

What do you mean "since he's become a Flyer"

 

He's made a nice career out of doing exactly what he's done as a Flyer. Makes one or two nice plays a game and takes the rest of it completely off.

HAAA, don't know, I didn't notice him before he was a Flyer either

...maybe you should look in the mirror bro and stop being passive aggressive and putting blame on others.

 

From the little I saw he wasn't showing effort and when he did get involved he was just a play killer.

 

Good riddance.

He's been barely noticeable since he's become a Flyer,

Good Riddance indeed!

Yes, he can be traded to any team he accepts being traded to. 

 

The problem is finding a team who wants a lazy overpaid over termed slug who quit once he made the NHL.

whichever team hires Chuck Taylor next season

Someone needs to get to @Samifan and ask him to stop.

 

He been bad....and even starting chants at games.

 

ARREST THAT MAN!!!

LOL, I was gonna ask which one of you were sending the emails. 

I know y'all were hoping he would return and show this team how to win but you're going to have to wait til next season.

my thought is, it is smart to not bring him back for meaningless games AND, it can only help their draft slot right? 

I too like to hear he's a bit pissed about not playing  and that he just wants to play...the team needs dudes like him for leadership but who knows how he's going to play once he's fully healthy, prob a 3rd line center Vet leader at this point.  Probably still PP worthy.  I've always liked him but also always been realistic as to how good of a player he is.

Maybe it's just an interim thing, I hope....UGH  SSDD indeed.

It would definitely be worth other fans 'hating' the team once again!

Discuss.

Hey, if lightening the color a few shades happens to piss off other teams and their fans, I'm all for it. 

Damn team is executing their yearly "screw our draft position" win streak. 

it's about that time of the season where the Flyers go on a winning streak and ruin their draft position

This is it exactly. You don't need to do anything with them, of course it's also likely that they don't do anything (if history is a guide).

 

 

They have three more seasons of the second line center they had to have three years ago.

 

They have eight more seasons of a guy they didn't need to re-sign when they did.

 

They have four more years of a guy being paid like a top four that they hope can be an effective bottom pair.

 

Two more of a former foundational D piece that they now can't find anything to do with.

 

They have three more seasons of a 32-year-old goon and a 28-year-old who's just happy as heck to be playing long term on a team that hasn't made the playoffs in three years.

 

They have almost $20M in three 30+ year old guys on IR.

 

They're still paying Bryzgalov for four more years (this doesn't have much to do with anything as it doesn't cost them against the cap, but, still, I mean... #halloffame)

 

This is just all indicative of an organization* that has followed no long term plan to develop since...

 

The Hartnell/Timonen trades and the Briere signing?

 

16 Years ago?

UGH...almost seems like the better plan would be to sell the team and create a new expansion team like Vegas and Seattle did.

I honestly think Briere will be named permanent GM. I thinks there's a philosophical principle that states the simplest explanation is usually the best one (for the life of me I can't remember what's its called, but its like I keep seeing it everywhere).

It's not that hard to be mediocre in the NHL.

 

You have to work to be bad (Arizona).

 

You have to work to be good.

 

You can muddle along in the middle for quite a long time.

Muddle    Middle

Puddle     Piddle

Let's call the whole thing off!
