  1. I love these past two trades.......We HAVE great Scroers on the Flyers. Jagr, Giroux, Read, and we have Role players on this team Cotourier,JVR,Simmonds, And Now we have stay at home defenceman, Grossman and Kubina, We have plenty od scoring so we dont need to worry about the Dfenceman who is ginna Score, we need the defenceman who could care less about scoring ,but wont allow the other team to get a shot on goal. THIS will allow Bryz and Bobs to play better because thier workload will be much easier. i was a season ticketholder during the Cup season of 1973-74, we had shutdown defenceman like Joe Watson, Jim Watson, Moose Dupont and Larry Goodenough. So the opposition was LUCKY to get 12 shots a game and those shots were LOW percentage. No Wonder Bernie had 12 shutouts, My Dog could have gotten 12 shutouts with that defence. So Enjoy it Flyers fans...good times begin RIGHT NOW. And if Proger comes back next season, thats even more to the good.
  2. i ran that question through my mind last night and came up with only ONE TEAM. The New York Islanders. We may remember they signed a guy named Rick DIPietro to a big dollar long term contract. DiPietros issue has been injuries, So think of it If the Islanders Bit, they have Bryzgalov Sharing the duties with Nabokov and i believe these two once were teammates on the west coast. On the Flyers end its "Quick" find another goalie to accompany Bobs for now and We have Faith that Dipietro will get better physically because we already know he is better than Bryz between the pipes. ....but then thats just my opinion, you asked the question and thats all I could come up with.. Both the Islanders and Flyers are STUCK, with Similar Quagmires, but at least this way Bryz wont hear any more Boo's The Nassua Colliseum is Empty most of the Time, not enough people there for an Audible Boo
  3. Lately i have found a CHaT that is active on here every time the Philadelphia Flyers play a game and all the Members of the FLYERS FORUM on this website are there when a game is LIVE. But what about OTHER NHL teams. Like at this moment NBC is showing the Blues vs Blackhawks, is there the same type of chat for those teams? or is this just something that Someone in the Flyers Forum created ? I would realy like to become involved in more chats, I just dont know where they are.
  4. bear on Ice has a good point, I could go for that, we will win SOME games
  5. there is an article on NHL.com http://www.nhl.com/ice/blogpost.htm?id=6609 the blue jackets want Cotourier,Schenn JVR and Bobrovsky for Nash....thats too high
  6. then of course the goal horn rocks the building
  7. great pictures I have been to the RBC Center 4 times this season with 2 more games left there. Seen BOTH games vs the Flyers I Love the RBC Arena, they keep you entertained.........they also like playing the Canes theme song
  8. I went to the Predators page on facebook and posted the Flyers fans Want of either Weber or Suter, this is what i was told. Webers Numbers drop off drastically without Suter and Suters Numbers drop off drastically without Weber, So any team going for ONE is a fool, you will need Both. Now it becomes a Cap issue if you wanna do that. So the Preds will make out like a bandit. If one goes they will get some good AND SIGNED players in return
  9. yes....the Flyers have an unbelievably easy schedule the rest of the way i told people on the Facebook Flyers Page they would go 22-5-3 the rest of the way. Is it possible ? One guy went to his bookie what do you think
  10. Bob Kelly should give these guys a seminar of how to hit and not get caught
  11. Gleason is off the market but his partners arent.......Brian Allen and Joni Pitkanin
  12. What about Brian Allen of the Hurricanes he is a UFA in July like Suter
  13. to answer doom 88, The Flyers have some better minor leaguers now and thats why this injury bug hasnt affected them as much, plus I think Peter Laviolette has Taught his Phantom Coaches about his style of Hockey. Now its Taught in Adirondack as well, I think the Addition of Riley Cote helped there. So when an injury hits its not as bad as before And For Poulin 20........I disagree on Schenn...........Forwards are suposed to be Good Defencively also and thats where Schenns problem is, he is Very weak defencively. Now Mark Recchi was Weak defensively also, but his Offencive numbers Compensated, thats not the case with Schenn
  14. whoa whoa whoa whoa, dont go putting Ditka on the Hurricanes, its bad enough we got Joni Pitkanin
  15. @flyercanuck You was close Buddy, My Famous line was / is "last post in this thread, Posting Ends Here-----------> X" I used to do that, no scratch that, I still do that when there isnt enough movement on a certain thread, Once I type that, its like people will say Oh Yeah, I ll show Gummy up and post after it. Well, Err That was my intention. LOL
  16. Caroline Hurricanes ? Nice touch of humour Bro. I will do that though.
  17. I am a former Philadelphian now Living in the Triad in NC.......my opinions on Kaberle........"Good Riddance"
  18. Yes, your guesses are correct THIS IS GUMMY, Your friend Leach 27 and I post together over at the facebook Flyers page and he told me about and also invited me here.He also told me many of the philly.com people were here. So i decided to sign up. a Few Things have Changed in my Life. I no longer live in Exton PA. In September 2010 I moved to Winston-Salem NC. Even though I am Still a Very Avid Flyers fan. I have been to Quite a few NHL games at the RBC Center in Raliegh NC, and the Hurricanes have kind if become a Second favourite team. So i have opinions that i may post about the Flyers trying to aquire a defenceman thing. The canes have Tim Gleason and Brian Allen. Where I would rather give you Joni Pitkanin, I know where that conversation would go. http://hurricanes.nhl.com
  19. Thank You Jammer. Until yesterday I didnt even know about this group. "Leach27" and I post together over at Facebooks Flyers page.And he told me about and invited me here. Told me a lot of the Philly.com people moved here. So I signed up. A few things have Changed in my life. I no longer live in Exton PA. In September 2010 I moved to Winston-Salem North Carolina. Even though I am still an Avid Flyers fan I have had the oppertunity to attend quite a few games at the RBC Center in Raliegh NC So as a "second" team i Also Like the Hurricanes.
  20. The Flyers Knew they had a weak defence going into this season, they obtained Bryzgalov to bail out the weak defence, if you remember we also had a weak defence in front of Ron Hextall and he bailed them out Day after day. To a Cetain extent Bobrovsky has bailed the defence out. But for his 51 Million Dollars Bryzgalov has not. Take the 2 home games vs Boston for example. in December we were all appaled that Bryzgalov gave up 6 goals in a 6-0 defeat. Then Came January 22nd. I was in the Facebook Flyers Newsgroup at the time. People were posting how good Bryzgalov was doing in that game. My reply was "wait a minute, its only the second period." Now we know as an End result, Bryzgalov gave up 5 goals in regulation and then another 2 in the shootout. So technically, the december game was better. Its time our goalie maybe spends some time in Adirondack, and learns his position again.It worked for another goalie in the 1980s and it will work for him.
  21. i would trade JVR and Shelly to Carolina for Tim Gleason, then send Tom Sesito, Braydon Schenn and a prospect to Anahiem For Luca Sbisa and a Draft pic k
