radoran Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 This game was a textbook on why the Flyers simply agent good enough. Sabres missing Eichel, Hall, have traded Staal and Montour and they're playing harder with more desire than the Flyers who, let's be fair, did have a strong 20-25 minutes of hockey out there. For a team with playoff pretensions to lose this game to this team - at home - is really inexcusable. Add it to the list. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samifan Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 Flyers, at home, out worked in the final 5 minutes of a “must win” game by basically an AHL team. SMH If Fletcher hasn’t sent a group text to all the other GMs telling him his listening to offers for everybody not name Coots, Hart, Provorov or Farabee immediately after this game maybe Scott needs to fire him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Farabee a lot, but if you can get a stud d man in a package with him, later Joel. Edited April 11, 2021 by FD19372 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Dog Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 They gave up. Pure and simple. Just gave up. It's time for a firesale. Keep the coach and let the losers go. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve101 Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 Can we fire AV yet?? Let's move on from this train wreck. Time to think for next year. Its quite apparent AV has list the players respect, interest and focus. This is a talented team playing much below capabilities 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear ya FD but Farabee seems to have an offensive skill set you can build around. He’s not afraid to shoot either. I think the D is going to get fixed this off season after the expansion draft. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pilldoc Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 Agree with @Samifan.... very hesitant about moving Farabee. He is at least willing to shoot and is showing some flashes of being an extremely good player. I get @FD19372 point we need a very good d-man but not at the cost of Farabee....... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, we're surely not going to get one for Nolan Patrick. I'm not calling you Shirley. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GratefulFlyers Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 that was about as ugly as you can get in the NHL. the 9-0 shellacking was horrendous but this was even worse in a way, really showed what this "team" is made of this year. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone else is unproven. JVR is too streaky. I get your POV I really do, I'm just hesitant about moving Farabee ........ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not the coaching. not even joel q can save this team, that's why he choose the panthers, he's smart enough to know what talent is on that team and this team, im shocked av haters dont even want to see that, not even the fact they dont done nothing for over 10 years and think it will magically change. that's the definition of desperation and not facing reality. i saw this coming a mile away i would have been shocked if the leadership played like the sid the kid, that was the only way this team is going to make it that far, them not showing up means not making the playoffs.

He's a Cup winning coach. I hated Hakstol at the end. Thoufht he should have been fired after season 3. Essentially, I've seen this whole "change the coach" movie before. It's not the coach. It's the players. Changing the coach AGAIN and expecting this to be a "talented" Cup contender is putting good money after bad. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St. Louis won that Cup in spite of him. Hakstol was in over his head. If they can AV, and don't trade at least part of core of the team...I'm done with this franchise for years, not just this year. I've had enough. It's not on the head coach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samifan Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 Anyone know how long Brind’Amour is under contract in Carolina? He has a track record of working well when the young kids and vets. Plus he’s a former flyer do it checks that box for Holmgren as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's getting embarrasing watching these guys climb the ladder of organization* records. I can see into the future when we are telling a new generation of Flyers fans the story of how they won a playoff round that one time... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
