Last year was right in line with what that group did for a decade. This is a new group. Make it happen. I think for the long time Flyers fans this coming season is a wait and see approach. With the new additions and the old unwanted players gone, the expectations will be at a minimal. It will be interesting to see which players rebound and get back on track (Hart). As well as the coaching staff, it seems to me the moves that Fletcher made were with discussions with AV to see what players he'd like. If AV can't get this team back to the playoffs and on the right track then I can see him gone. Being a long time fan, I don't get too excited when they're playing well or too down when they play like ****, but it would be nice to see them win a cup before I die. It's going to be a tough road to qualify for the playoffs, if they do make it they'll probably be a wildcard team. Personally I'd like to see the younger players play more but that's not going to happen with AV. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not going to happen with The Flyers. The organization* sees itself "competing for the Stanley Cup" every year. Including the past 10.

I can just see ol' Fletch sitting around with ol' Homer and ol' Clarke discussing the merits of trading whatever it takes for this guy who used to be great in 2014 or that guy who had that goal against us in 2009 to help Philly make the playoffs (which they likely would do anyway if the team played like it did 2 seasons ago) because then anything can happen! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll be screaming for him to shoot, in Columbus, by their home game #5. Edited September 23, 2021 by FD19372 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voracek does nothing but pass (and stickhandle) and Laine does nothing but shoot. If they end up with any kind of chemistry it could be a very good stats year for each. They just need a center who can win some faceoffs and can take some space near the net and in the corners. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
