Either the Game 7 of the 2001 Stanley Cup finals, the USA hockey semi-final versus the Soviet Union in 1980, or the five OT playoff game between the Flyers and Penguins in 2000, when Keith Primeau scored the game-winner. There's several others I'm not mentioning, that were great also.

I'm shocked and sickened by this tragedy. RIP Johnny and Matthew... both so young and gone way too soon. All because of a drunk driver. Right before their sister's wedding, too. My prayers to their family and friends.

FIFY.

"The Ryan Johansen Flyer Era" by Ryan Johansen, with forewords from Danny Briere, Keith Jones, Adam Oates and John Tortorella.

Yes. Patrick Kane OWES us.

Yeah, I know.. but I don't WANT IT TO BE Malkin. LOL.

Patrick Kane, as a member of the Philadelphia Flyers, will be the next 500+ goal scorer at age 45.

Oh, it's well over 20 years. They've never adapted to The Hard Salary Cap Era. This is due to Ed Snider's arrogance, God Rest His Soul, and his adopted sons and their friends. They refuse to get out of their own way, therefore they can't. Also.. therefore, the best they'll ever be is good, not great. They're still stuck in the past. They'd rather honor questionable traditions, then win Cups. It's why I don't take the franchise seriously, anymore. I'm not all that confident, honestly, that they've even figured out how to treat their Russian players.

They WISH they were the Southern Leafs. As much as I criticize the Leafs, at least they make they make the playoffs, annually.

Damn. Just when I think the Flyers are going to win the draft lottery and pick Hagens, Chuckles gets involved somehow to ruin things again for Flyers fans. You just know Jersey is going to get the first pick now. I don't care what he did in Minnesota. I REALLY dislike what he did to the Flyers.

They'll also sign Kane to a 5 year deal, with a NMC. Then, he'll lead us to Game 7 of the finals, and hit the post in a game we lose in OT, even though he owes us lol. The following year, he'll go on LTIR.

Cup contender?? Briere has a lot of work to do, to just make this team reach the playoffs.

Now, after reading a comment from NHL insider Kevin Kurz on Twitter..ok X..."Travis Konecny has a no-move clause for the first six years and a limited no-trade clause for the final two of the new contract", I feel worse about this deal than I did originally. #Master Of Puppets #ObeyYourMaster

As long as they trade him for decent value when he's approaching 34, assuming we have better and younger right wings at that point, I'm fine with it.

He probably wasn't going to sign in Philly, for less than $8.5 mil.
