someone give me a TLDR: are we dead?

 

I don't know. I'm looking for the red door knob, like the one in Sixth Sense. The franchise sure is.

..... and this state of the union shows why the Flyers are toilet bowl dwellers. "We've doubled the staff of our player development." Great, but its still filled with crap. How do they expect players to get better when the player development staff is comprised of garbage? "We're not a 3,4,5 year rebuild." Clearly Dave Scott isn't watching the same product we are. They are in need of a complete overhaul. Our my favorite was taking about the injuries that Ellis and Couturier have and why surgery is a last option. You've got one guy that had played five ****** games. After missing 15 to 20 games, surgery should have been a must and then shut him down for the year. Oh, the only thing admitted was that they're moving Giroux. The fact that Chuck gave him a grand retrospective is clear that they're preparing fans to say goodbye to Claude and that he'll be back someday for his jersey retirement. Embarrassing and predictable.

Sometimes your optimism is just too much! 🤣

truly, could he be worse than the current clown car of idiots that seem to be driving the team off a cliff?

 

This has been a tough year for optimism and not just with the hockey club.

Missed the presser and didn't read much of the thread, but am I correct in assuming that the parade is cancelled?

 

 

He'll to the nah we have reserved our seats on @radoran lawn and he is just going have to supply us beer till they hoist the damn Cup. Hope he has bought some good stock in some good Philly beer.

"Lawn" - lol - wait'll you see South Philadelphia...

 

You think if we barrelled a ceremonial cask of bourbon now to drink when they win the Cup again it would be younger or older than Pappy van Winkle Family Reserve when finally tapped?

I have come to the conclusion that the management and coaches like golf more than hockey.

 

Why else would they let this $hit show continue?

Sooner you are done with hockey quicker you can golf.

The Jones EDM thing is just a rumour. Elliotte Friedman just mentioned Jones as a possible fix in net for the Oilers.

 

He could have just as easily mentioned Rux as a possible fix. I mean, could it hurt? "Now in net for the Oilers, "Nasty Bear"

Here is a take on the press conference that seems to open up a number of possibilities on the trade front.  He says Giroux ultimately calls the shots.  After reading this, he understand the season is a major disappointment.  He knows the team needs high end talent and strongly hints that some players have seen their best days.

We will see how this plays out over the next few months.

Fletcher sounded intelligent, seems to have a good grasp of where the Flyers are right now and even what they need to become a better team. The thing is, he’s a big reason why the Flyers are where they are right now. Sure, without the injuries the Flyers would be winning more games. But would they be a favorite to make a SCF or even a division title? I don’t think so. Better than what they are now but still out of the “potential Cup-winner” conversation.

Don't forget Hextall for not drafting Makar...even though the Flyers never thought about drafting Makar.

Bob Clarke always meant to draft the guy he'd never heard of, couldn't remember the name of, and was disappointed he couldn't have drafted someone else.

If they'd drafted Aho, deBrincat, and Pastrnak that's the 2-3 guys to make Giroux's roster competitive.
