So is Scott Laughton the next to be traded?

It's funny, Torts' post-gamer sounded like a guy who was upset with execution and penalties.  He even made it clear that the thinking should be on the coming game with Chicago.  Tactically, that makes sense--you put a loss behind you and move on.  But if I am Danny Briere, this game said a lot about my squad and its talent. Torts has done a great job with the clay he can mold. But we need help.  

 

I was also thinking about fate and the consequences of past choices.  Think back to June, 2017.  The Devils take Hischier.  And we take Nolan Patrick:

Sorry for opening up old wounds,  But seeing Hischier on post-game interviews made me reflect on our talent shortfall.  

 

 

 

You couldn't be more right!!

He is gone. I think the Flyers are moving forward with the idea they will need to replace him.

 

If they don't? Bonus.

 

I'd say the only path is complete exoneration, which seems increasingly unlikely.

 

That said, Billy Tibbets played for three NHL teams - including the Flyers...

And if I remember correctly, he wasn't allowed to enter Canada with the team.

Spoke earlier about the changing of the guard. New folks running the show. The drafting of MM and the trading of an entitled 19 yr old speaks to me.

The team has no quit and is fun to watch. The future? Who knows but I’m good for now.

Somehow, someway we need to get MM over here, not sure how that is going to be done.

The Philadelphia Flyers are now 3-0 in the shootout this season…all 3 wins with Ersson in net. 

That's great, I remember when they would go to a shoot-out it was almost an automatic loss, with the exception being vs the Rangers in 2010.

Sorry, it looks like Coots to his left. I think there's a 14 on his helmet. 

Sanheim? Looks like a 6 on his helmet.

Flyers power play sure could use a skill injection.

It sure would help, the PP is pathetic.

Kuato was his name. Hahaha 

Wasn't he the person who posted in 3rd person? That was annoying!

Maybe Danny Briere is secretly on this forum?

I have been off this site so long I don’t even know if you are being snarky/smarmy or not…Oh well, let the retraining begin.

That statement was for Scott Laughts biggest fan, Coach X  

And I know that ice is cold! Does that make me a great hockey coach?

I guess I stand corrected, kind of.  NHL just rated defenseman and Pietro is #9

 

https://www.nhl.com/news/nhl-current-players-ranked-top-20-defensemen-345580664

 

Pietro is obviously a true #1 but I dont know if that alone makes him a stud defenseman...as in, a player that defines the position.  As you mentioned, the league has placed a premium on scoring and NHL has Makar and Fox #1 and #2.

I can't believe that Risto didn't make the list!   

And then there's the statue they'll be erecting!!

There is ONE single reason I love this roster......anyone care to guess?

No Scott Laughton??

I think they both may of came CHEAP!! Saved Comcast a few bucks.

Well to keep Fletch's tradition going, even though he's gone, welcome to the Flyers, OLIVER MOORE. Briere better not do that. I saw that he wasn't even listed in the above poll

to choose which player that the Flyers should draft at #7.  

Danny should talk to Howie Roseman, that guy is a genius general manager. 2023 draft A+ rating from many sources.

Maybe he could take a GM class?

David Boreanaz from Bones, is this real? Don't know who the guy is on the far right

After reading that, it's like a bad soap opera. All My Flyers, As the Flyers Turn. What a cluster f--k this has become. What happens next?

Did anyone else see the guy in the stands at the Eagles/Detroit game wearing a Flyers jersey surrounded by Lions fans?

Back in '74 I remember a team which could not win a game at Boston Gardens, but yet they won one

and won all their home games to win the cup!! All they have to do is win one game at MSG and all the

ones at home. I think that they can win at MSG. The playoffs are a different animal all together!!

It's a Done Deal!! E5
