flyer4ever Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 TDL day with the chucktard is like going to the dentist with a toothache. You are both excited for the pain to be gone but dreading the process as well. There is ZERO reasons to anticipate a good move being made, because it has never happened with this moron.

Maybe his bosses told him that his days are numbered in Philly so they’re keeping his hands off the Flyers. But that would be too good to be true. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That maybe the case but the bosses should tell him to at least get rid of JVR and Hayes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icehole Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 I can't believe I just witnessed that trade deadline and the presser after. That couldnt have gone any worse. Just a few things I picked up from the press conference: Either he is completely lying, or he completely threw JVR under the bus. He kept saying that they offered to retain half the salary and take on another contract to make it work. Yet nobody would take a big skilled net front presence like JVR? That's almost impossible. His final statement he mentioned that they need more talent, but they didn't go after talent in the off-season because they had concerns about the team and they wanted to give the young guys a shot. What does that even mean??? Is he saying they knew they would suck, so the didn't get JG, and they wanted their young guys to play and lose? But then he hires probably the only coach in the league that won't let his players be bad enough to lose enough. The whole thing is just amusing.

The rest of the league is happy as hell watching the Flyers twist in the breeze. They are loving it. The fact they get to screw over Fletcher is a bonus. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vis Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 There is no reason to keep this buffoon around. Should be fired immediately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well believe it or not there was actually one to keep the ship headed towards land to run it aground for Bedard. But even Chuckles fcuked that up too because he can't even tank right!!!!

That said, Fletcher should have gutted the roster once he knew Couturier and Atkinson were going to miss the seasons. Any semblance of value should have been traded at any point during the season. Christ, Hayes is having a statistically good season for himself. But should not be part of the long term solution here. Should have been traded and salary retained. Collect picks in this years draft, whatever it takes. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok that is nice you have to move someone so the 5th now is going to at least cost you a 3rd or 4th you don't get extra just because you're in a bin. But nope he does then a favor for free. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be hard pressed to agree. The idea "Nick Seeler" is an important piece - or even "Laughts" for that matter - is laughable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been in the league SEVEN years....why judge him on that though...let 20 games decide whether you're going to give him a longterm contract at stupid money. I mean it worked out so well with Hayes and Ristolainen. He played 4 years with the Barrie Colts...I'm usually a little biased when it comes to Colts...I want nothing to do with him. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
