Howie58 Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 Greetings: We are a heavy favorite. A glimpse at stats suggests we trounce the Devs on faceoffs and GAA. https://www.sportsbettingdime.com/nhl/odds/2020020712-nhl-nj-phi/ We should have Ghost back; the Devils will be without Subban or Hischier. This is a "should win" game but given the standings madness, it is "must win" as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on recent political correctness, i temper my actions to crop dusting escalators. I can claim ignorance, get more bang for my buck, and avoid negative publicity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terrible on that goal.....he should be embarrassed 6-5 215 or 220 and i have seen Ghost lean on someone harder than that.

OccamsRazor Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 Wow after that goal basically from end to end through the forwards defense and the swiss cheese in net and it's 2-0. These guys are so unpredictable. This next stretch of games are going to be brutal. On 2/5/2020 at 3:41 PM, MaineFlyFan said: Can they pull off 2 "should wins" in a row?!?.... I guess we know the answer to this...or i'll check later i don't have time to watch these bums go through the motion. It would be a good time for a Captain to step and SHOW us how to lead..............by example. Goodnight all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tucson83 Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 nothing is going to change until we get rid of giroux and jake and bring in a talented difference maker, i dont care about the age because tanking for one is impossible and you need alot of luck. i would just keep going after talented older players until a younger one is available and go after him.

Im not even close to insightful or smart, so how did I know? Easy. They were playing a team they were supposed to beat. Wash...rinse...repeat I think this team is a total work of fiction. The reason they are beating better teams, i suspect, is because those teams are playing down to the flyers, like they supposedly do to weaker teams. This makes them appear better than they are, when in reality, they are equal to the bottom teams in the league. Again, fiction, or farce if you prefer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoachX Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 I predict when the smoke clears and the season ends, this team will miss the playoffs, again, and be a middle of the pack group. They wont get a high enough draft pick to make an impact, and they will be left scrambling to find offense from somewhere because they wont pull the trigger with a trade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkscrewy Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 They’re definitely going to miss the playoffs. They think it’s ok to win the important games and lose the games the should win. 41-41 is ok with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, the people running the team have created their own reality. Edited February 7, 2020 by FD19372 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Root for the Flyers to make the playoffs and get swept in the first round OR root for a high draft pick and get the last non playoff pick...sad but realistic outcomes.

Definitely a playoff team. Again. Lather. Rinse. Repeat. Flyers may actually make the playoffs. And, yes, "anything can happen." But, no, every team doesn't have "as good a shot as anyone else." This magical thinking is what keeps casinos in business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
