SCFlyguy Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 I mean if you want someone to come up big in game 6 in the first round, he's your man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huberdeau, Barkov didn't exactly carry their weight. Giroux was decent- somehow that's bad? Not really understanding your point, other than perhaps you're acting as a cleansing agent?

I think the whole problem was that Giroux filled a need for Florida that didn't really exist. They were a President's trophy winner without him. With him they get bounced by the two time Champions. Would that have happened anyway? For me, Giroux is simply not a difference maker by himself - my evidence is only his career. He is a great complimentary player - but that sort of chemistry doesn't happen in a handful of games after the trade deadline. Of course #nothisfault @mojo1917 We have been over this ground. You know from where I come and I know you. Well met. If you add a "superstar" to a team on course for the President's trophy and you lose in the second round... #legendary (I am aware you are over Gee but free agency hasn't even started) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dumpster Hockey Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 The playoffs do suck in some ways when the Flyers sucked so bad this past season I realize they will most likely not sniff the playoff for several years to come. What also sucks is I live in the Kansas City, Missouri area and they show hockey news coverage of both the Calgary Flames and the St. Louis Blues. They follow the Calgary Flames here because of the Kansas City Mavericks of the ECHL and the Flames are affiliated with them. The Blues are 4 hours away from here. So I heard about both of those teams until recently they were both eliminated. I have still been watching the playoffs because I enjoy watching hockey, but I'd much rather be cheering the Flyers on. I was born in 1995 and have never seen the team win the Stanley Cup and would love to see that happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dumpster Hockey Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 (edited) Don't worry the Flyers will eventually sign Cale Makar when he is about 38 years old to probably a 7 year deal for 8 million per year.

In fairness to Clarke, Makar was drafted out of the Alberta Junior Hockey League. To your point, Clarke probably never heard of him until he was playing for Colorado. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 16 years as Flyers GM Clarke picked defense in the first round four times.
