Howie58 Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Greetings: In a few years, this might be a battle between two heavyweights in the Metro. Now, it's two teams in rebuild. CBJ is favored (-1.5), and we are 4-15 in our last 19 at Nationwide: https://www.oddsshark.com/nhl/philadelphia-columbus-odds-october-12-2023-2015779 The Briere Era starts. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyercanuck Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Flyers opener is on for tonight, against a team that is equally as bad the Bleu Jacquettes. Should be a fairly even game, nice to see Brink make the team, and Risto NOT playing. https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/philadelphia-flyers/analysis/game-preview-flyers-visit-ohio-kick-off-season-against-blue-jackets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mojo1917 Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Well boys the rubber hits the road tonite! Gonna see if Brink's feet and hands have that NHL regular season setting in them. Gonna see if Andrae is as tough to knock off his skates as we've read. Ol' Forrester gonna let it rip? Couturier's back gonna hold up ? He's gonna be fresh after a 2 year break? Some questions are gonna to start being answered. I'm here for it. Thanks @Howie58 for another year of game threads. Nice try grumpy ol' man @flyercanuck !! Going to be an interesting and perhaps fun year to watch this team again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's also second pair on the Blue Jackets. So. Change of scenery. And role. And expectations. No wonder he's so relaxed. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm saying he was ruined in Philadelphia before Torts got here. I'm saying Fletch giving him the extension instead of dealing him was the problem - many said at the time... But he HAD TO BE the 1D because they HAD TO BE a definitely a playoff team and were THISCLOSE to a Cup. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The year he scored 17 goals i just knew they had a Super star. And they ruined him...castrated him. Now i'm going to have a drink now i'm pissed....thanx Rad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
