If skating improves I see a Joel Otto career ark.

Passing thought...why didn't Danny boy offer sheet Broberg??...would have made a nice addition.

Lotta red at the bottom...REDRUM ...

Pure comedy GOLD!!!

My take: Flyers Rebuild...scrape, claw and fight for every bit of assets/cap space...burn it down till everyone fits the timeline and the cap is a serious weapon. Do not move forward unless it fits...youth/speed/picks. Flyers Retool: Floating around with a wishy washy attempt to fool fans into thinking the suckage is done. Requires spending to the cap ceiling with guys that don't fit the timeline. Also required...not enough inner strength to admit the pain the fan base has endured and a dash of pride, sprinkled with arrogance.

Stevie Y has not been perfect...but 5 yrs in...finally gonna make a playoff push. Signed a few Goalies...Kane, Tarasenko...few others and STILL has decent prospects AND 20 mill in cap space.

RIP TONY VOCE!

OK Flyer fans. Some good news on the rebuild/retool front. As you know, Flyers own Colorado's 2025 1st rd pick. I just checked on Puckpedia. Aves are 1.4 mill over the cap....it gets better. They have 11 forwards signed, 5 Dmen..so they have to fill 3-4 players to sign. Even at vet minimum, that puts them 5+ mill over. You can go over by 10% in the off season...but I wanna see how Sakic climbs out of this hole, especially since the rest of the league knows he's in cap hell...lmao! Oh...and their Goalie Georgiev has sucked of late!! Doubt the top 10 protected comes in play....but Flyers pick looking better...maybe 22-17ish?? If all goes our way!

They couldn't handle it when you could spend unlimited...lol. Throw in a boatload of Dufus snot eaters like Fletcher, Homer etc...AND a cap...lol...no hope. Hexy was smarter than those two, but scared to death of making a mistake. He took conservative to another level. I cringe at the thought of Danny having cap space and rolling in some middling reinforcements.

Pretty sure you have to be an ancient relic (which is why I figured you of all people would get it)...but it was a play on the whole Paul is Dead thing. That album cover was thought to continue the shenanigans....the Flowers arraigned as if it was a Funeral.

I respect that. I want sustained greatness. The Flyers considered a top 5 team year after year. Like Colorado before their Goalies turned to crap.

So, just to be clear, you're ok with a miniscule shot at the Cup, as long as the best possible team is put on the Ice?

Well, time is on your side....history on the other hand....

I hate losing also. Just going by actual rosters, there has been 2 teams win it all in the past 20 years that did not have a top 5 pick. How do you get said top 5 pick? 1)You suck really bad. 2)You overpay to the point where its not worth it Unless you think the Flyers can be that 3rd magical addition to non top 5 club, those are the options. I'd rather really suck then continue this perpetual cycle of treading water in the deep end...but to each their own. They can still be entertaining and finish bottom 5. You just need 2 stinky, rancid like Goalies. Judging by last year's final month, that may indeed be the plan...lol.

Yeah...but how does it get better when you're dead?
