GratefulFlyers Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Hayes it out? Oh no. 4 Flyers starting centers are hurt at the same time yet there's not much difference on the ice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyercanuck Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 5 wins in the last 25 games. You'd almost think they were tanking if you didn't know Fletcher has been throwing away draft picks like trash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the dysfunction of the Flyers. Striving for mediocrity. BITFU. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyClarkeFan16 Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 Last night's game is a great example of how toxic things are there. Honestly, I'm wanting to see Giroux get moved to chase a Stanley Cup. Management at all levels dropped the ball with him. Yeah, I was pissed that he did nothing in the playoffs, but at the same time, he basically carried this club on his back into the playoffs and was gassed by the time he got the team there. Every GM that was in Philadelphia during Giroux's run should hang their head in shame at how they pissed away his career. And yet, one of the GMs sits as a senior advisor and his mentor is an advisor as well. The rot will remain until either both men step down or die. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkscrewy Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 This quote from a book I'm currently reading really sums up the State of My Flyers Fandom (35+ years, up to the current status) pretty accurately: "The devastating scale and frequency of my disappointment ('I am down, but not yet defeated,' Gauguin snivel-boasted) was proof of how much I still expected and wanted from the world, of what high hopes I still had in it. When I am no longer capable of disappointment the romance will be gone: I may as well be dead." - Geoff Dyer, Where? What? Where? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's the case, wtf are medical doing allowing him to be shooting if his shoulder is still causing him grief. Good God the medical staff that's employed by the Flyers are retards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sell everything big you can move. Go ahead bring Emil and Samu over and starting getting them familiar with the north American way. Bring the main kids who contracts can be utilized in the AHL so get the head start. Why wait? Playing the 2nd best league can work wonders. Show them how far they have to catch up. The more kids that play by next season the quicker it gets fixed. But management must be sorted first. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyClarkeFan16 Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Good Lord, after that Buffalo game, they powers that be need to clean house. Fire all that toxicity and begin the process of sure a straightening this mess out. Under NO circumstances should Schmuck Felcher, Bobby Clarke, Paul Holmgren and Dean Lombardi be around this club for the rebuild. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed this too....but, How many more reps did he take? I am not judging anything based on a 10 second tweet. For all we know he was told to stop after that reaction.

Howie58 Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 We have been saying it for years, but trainer and medical staff need review/change. Do other teams suffer this kind of medical absenteeism? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just another symptom of the cancerous dry rot. Hey, Clarkie, it's not MY fault you're a cancer!

Or Mathieu Darche in Tampa Bay. However, if these guys come onboard, they need to have their say in who the senior advisors are. That's the only way to start fixing the mess here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes - i agree time for a new way of trying to get this right and the old good ol boys club has been tried over and over it hasn't worked. Go find a new age mind on doing things in the NHL today. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FD19372 Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 "That's our culture, we don't need a fresh perspective". That was none other than the late Ed Snider, in 2013. Have the attitudes in the Flyers organization really changed? No. I don't really call Chuck Fletcher a "fresh perspective". Are they conveniently and deliberately backwards? Yes. That's a major problem. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
