Samifan Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Idles just got a point so the best the Flyers can do is back into the second WC spot. To do that they have to win out and get help. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pilldoc Posted April 14 Author Share Posted April 14 Caps / Isles / Pens all have 1 game in hand Flyers lose to Caps they are done. Flyers win vs. Caps -> still need alot of help and alot of things to go right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FD19372 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 I want bonus hockey aka playoffs for this team, but I also realize they're a one and done. Honestly, I would rather they have a chance to win the draft lottery, and be somehow able to pick first. It is so Flyers, that they fight their a*ses off ..only to play for a little over a week, in the playoffs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyerrod Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 The Flyers had the last 20 games to chart their own course. Problem is it resembled a certain ship leaving the Baltimore Harbor……Would love to see them play a few more games this season but I think the odds are better that Epstein didn’t kill himself…. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mojo1917 Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 Horrible time to go into a collective scoring slump. It highlighted that lack of high end talent. The difference between winning and losing in the NHL today is pretty slim. The difference between bad teams and decent teams is slim too. Having a player or two that can make something from nothing would have been helpful during that stretch of games. This also just in: if my aunt had any balls, she'd be my uncle. Can't do anything about that either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radoran Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 56 minutes ago, mojo1917 said: The difference between bad teams and decent teams is slim too. The difference between "good" and "decent" teams is not insignificant and the gap between "good" (DAL/COL) and "bad" (CBJ/SJS) is vast. There's a 20 point difference from the top of the standings to the bubble. There's another 20 points (in the East) to the bottom of the standings - it's wider in the West. Teams with 14, 15, 16 more wins in the W column are significantly better. Again, not to say "bottom" teams "can't" beat "better" teams, it's whether they can do it 4 times each against "better" teams in the playoffs that matters. 32 minutes ago, flyercanuck said: If only there was a way of acquiring said talent.... Chicago, Anaheim, and San Jose seem to be working on a method. So's Columbus, as if that counts for anything. But, hey, the Flyers have a 6.2% chance to make the playoffs. And they just beat the Rangers. Anything can happen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya, while they're selling assets for more draft capital and prospects, and selecting in the top of the draft stockpiling high end talent, the Flyers are treading water and stockpiling Scott Laughtons. But at least in 5 years when those teams are contenders, we'll be a bubble playoff team drafting around 15th 16th or 17th. And those 2 or 3 first round annihilations that we suffered will do wonders for our bubble playoff team going forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't do anything about that either. It's basically come down to if my math is right the Flyers needing to beat Caps in regulation and whoever they play last to win. And at the same time the Wings need to lose both games left. Wow that is a lot to need to go right to get in. And if they would have won just 1 or 2 of the games on the 8 game skid well they would have a spot already. Sucks for them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myself and only myself feels it would have been better to sell off assets (Laughton and Seeler) for whatever. Not trade for #77 and just went with Ginning and Attard the rest of the season and let the chips fall where they may. Hopefully with all that done it would have put them drafting at least around 10-12th. Not 14-16th. But ol well fug it too late now. Seems they are going to miss the playoffs and get a crappy pick. So yeah NONE of us get what we really want. Fuggin Flyers 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, they've never made the adjustment when the league went to Revenue Sharing & the Salary Cup. That along with their persistent "win now" attitude keeps them as mediocre. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish i could deny this but all the evidence suggest you're right and that is one of their biggest downfalls... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
