  1. Oh, I think that CoachX:Laughton flyercanuck:Hayes is a pretty accurate mathematical formula
  2. Well, that's just ridiculous as we all know that @CoachX is on the Laughts bandwagon.
  3. So, you're saying you agree with Torts and want JVR to stay? That's how it's done.
  4. Florida didn't want to be overwhelmed with Tronno fans. I'm kind of surprised about Carolina, though, as it's not like the Panthers have some sort of rabid fanbase ready to travel and take over in Raleigh. They don't even come close to selling out their own home games while the Canes are playing to near capacity this season. (That said, the Panthers are selling out their playoff games)
  5. Tronno fans can't get tickets in Tronno, that's why they come to Buffalo.
  6. You don't "build" around a 34 year old defenseman. You "add" a 34 year old defenseman to cement your young core. Apparently the vaunted "Flyers culture" was so tainted and dysfunctional it couldn't handle Carter and Richards despite committing the franchise to both of them. Then we are told that over the next 13 years Flyers culture deteriorated to the extent that they needed a third party to hire an outside coach to come in and rebuild it. And all of this is presented like it's a good thing. And the guy who himself says he knows nothing about hockey says they're fully committed to two rookie executives. Hey, could work. Irish up that coffee.
  7. This is where Paul Holmgren and I part ways. They had built a team, had locked up their young core, were ready to add the Prongers to make it happen and they blew it up. Remember "winning the trades"? The Flyers won the trades. The Kings won Cups. The Flyers have one playoff round win since.
  8. The llama responsible for global moderation has been sacked.
  9. por que você acha que eu me importo enquanto estou morando nesta ilha?
  10. The retired health care executive says everything's tikitiboo.
  11. The running joke is actually the 7 or 8 teams' fanbases that think the rest are a bunch of nobodies. Here are the Cup champions since the lockout: Carolina, Anaheim, Detroit, Pittsburgh, Chicago, Washington, St. Louis, Tampa Bay, Colorado. Two original six teams, 15 (Detroit) and 10 (Chicago) years ago respectively. Pittsburgh and Colorado had won Cups previously. Three "non traditional" franchises and oddballs like Washington and St. Louis. There have been four Canadian teams in the Final since then. The Habs* last year, and then 12 years ago for Vancouver and 16 (OTT) and 17 (EDM). Heck, the flagship "Eleven Cup" original six team hasn't even made the Final in a league with more than six teams, and people who just became legal to drink in the United States have never seen them out of the second round. The hottest and most vibrant Final fanbases recently have been in Vegas and Nashville. Even Carolina's "Storm Surge" has gotten traction. "Traditional" market fanbases? The Flyers can't even sell out a game practicallygiving the tickets away.
  12. Not anymore. He's a UFA. Bill Guerin on line one?
  13. Has anyone seen who has obviously hacked @ruxpin's account?
  14. Good to see that the retired health care executive is rock solid behind the two rookie executives he hired to run the hockey franchise. Now do something.
  15. They didn't want a guy who took himself out of position just to make a big hit. No, really.
