HE WAS OFFSIDES BY 5 FEET (since 1980) ! LOL.

You've got to be kidding me

No surprise. Crosby didn't want him on the team. Polaris should rip me for this any minute now. Waiting...

I would keep Couturier before Read but #14 would most likely get you more on the trade market. He's a potential shut down defensive forward that teams would like to have for a playoff run. Good that they at least made a somewhat sane contract for a goalie this season.

"How to sign free agents in or near their prime." by Paul Holmgren with forward from Ed Snider. "My great games as a Flyer defenseman" by Luke Schenn and Mark Streit with foreward from Braydon Coburn.

I 'm hoping for Zac to get the Gordie Howe hat trick, and a Flyers win!

I didn't even watch or listen to the 1st and 2nd period because I couldn't, but from what I've seen it's consistently that the defense isn't mobile enough. They also trapped in their own zone when the other team aggressively forechecks with a lot of speed. They get beat to almost every loose puck along the boards in their own zone. They gave up too many shots tonight that were great scoring chances, and Mason couldn't bail them out this time.

Don't laugh. They're probably negotiating a 2-year contract with Peter Forsberg as we speak.

He's an older version of Andrew Bynum.

I never had a question that Meszaros is talented and would produce. The fear I have is always that he will be out more than in the lineup with chronic injuries. He's playing great since he's come back but I would still seriously consider going in another direction after this season.

At this point, I would see if anyone is stupid enough to take on Hartnell's salary, and then do Timonen a favor for being a good player for us for a while, and trade him to a contender. Also, I would see what young help on D could be gotten for Read or Schenn but not Couturier. In a perfect world, I'd rather trade Coburn, but no one will want that contract unless it is part of a much bigger deal. The organization has screwed itself into a corner because of its overloyalty of NTCs. The farm system is getting a little better but still sucks in terms of almost NHL ready prospects.

"Help I got by teammates in the 2013-14 season" by Steve Mason.

No, but they have four punchlines.

"The Legion of Snooze"

"Why we don't need a culture change" by Ed Snider with foreward from Bob Clarke and Paul Holmgren "How to draft and help advance eastern European and Russian talent" by Paul Holmgren and Bob Clarke "How we've earned our money in 2012 and 2013. " by the Flyers first line

Howie, The team was old and slow in 2006-07, and they had no goaltending. In our current team's particular case, our defense is unacceptably slow and old, and they don't have the offensive firepower to compensate for it. Their goaltending couldn't have been blamed last year, and SURE AS HELL can't be this year. Berube stopped the bleeding with a band-aid for a while with a slight system change, but this team ain't making it anywhere anyway. I said it before and I'll say it again, if Snider has any pride as an owner he'll fire Homer TOMORROW and hire from outside his buddy system.

It wasn't anyone in Orange and black's night. The Blackhawks know Emery very well, and their SLOW, SLOPPY defense was getting beat to every loose puck along the boards the entire game. Oh and I'm tired of seeing Hartnell's overpaid a*s too. Time for him, Coburn, L. Schenn to find another team. When you lose the battle along the boards against the Hawks, and let them have EASY access into the zone, you have ZERO shot to win. Tonight's game is a prime example. Snider and Holmgren can now make a damage control appearance on TV tonight and tell all their season ticket holder's and delusional fans that they're in great shape and don't need to do a thing. I know Chicago's a really good team, but they got COMPLETELY EXPOSED tonight.

Moulson yes, but not Ehrhoff. He is way too inconsistent.

Would anyone else try and trade for him? He is a puck moving, talented young d man. I would offer L.Schenn or Matt Read for him. Any thoughts? What would it take?

Now that they beat Pittsburgh in Pittsburgh, they could perceivably win all of the rest of their November games.

Has anyone seen a ransom note? They looked great, and I even saw a couple of times where they completed 3 passes in a row. They played like a legit NHL team. Giroux looked 75% like his old self. Berube should definitely keep those line combos together, at least until they get beat 7-1 by the Pens (I hope I'm wrong).

At least somebody in the parking lot can hit a target accurately...sorry, couldn't resist.

The Flyers should take Zarley Zalapski for Rosehill.

This could a recurring, running headline going back to 1975.

That's called cover my a*s damage control. Why should he fix it when he's still putting as*es in the seats? Next year he won't be as lucky with season ticket sales, except to the idiots who don't know a puck from a baseball. He'd rather be Mr. Loyalty and hand out favors for the rest of his life to ex-players who didn't win a damned thing. Of course, he's baffled. He can't figure out how to fix things HIS way, aka wrongly.
