I am really annoyed by the entire Provorov issue. Not because I don't think he should be able to follow his understanding of the teachings of his faith. Because he chose to set himself aside from his team mates. I am even more annoyed with the team and the coach for not dealing with this...

As good as the Flyers looked against the yotes, that is how overmatched they looked against the Leafs. TK is the only legit top line player at this time (there are potential, but that doesn't count). There is no real playmaker. There is no center who can win faceoffs. (remember the...

The Flyers do not have legit top line talent, injured or healthy. That is problem 1. With the injured players and G they had a cohesive unit that could compete, but that was all. They couldn't go every far. Just counting down to the Fletcher firing. Wonder who else gets shown the door...

10 games. All a little different from each other. All with varying levels of frustration and anger generated. 10 games. All losses. On Black Friday the team was not prepared to play. It was clear. What to the coach do, he blames a "Young dumb league". Well, if you are the great coach...

It is getting more and more difficult to be objective about this team. I think TK has excelled and should be commended. I think Laughton has been Laughton. Everything else is a mess. The coach doesn't play youngsters and let them develop. He wants to play players who, frankly are boarder...

I had to log in for this....Kieffer Bellows? I like the idea of adding him to the organizational depth. They already have Tippet who is ... the same player for all intensive purposes. Atkinson - still no word or time table. Cooter, now beyond Christmas. How Torts handles all of this...

I have been a fan of this team since before they won their first cup. I have never seen a Flyers team/from management to 4th line players, look so completely talentless and out of sync. What is worse, I honestly felt that Torts could make them competitive with the right tweaks. Let's look...

The best thing that Comcast could do now would be to step up and say "Hey, we screwed up. We are going to do what it takes to rebuild. This is going to take a couple of years and it might be painful. We hope our fans will continue to support us as only the best fans in the league can." But...

It is interesting to look at this club and try to map "what went wrong?" IMHO, it is not as simple as the death of Ed Snider, or the involvement of Comcast. 1. After Pete Luuko left the organization there has been a complete disconnect between the hockey side and business side. 2. Holmgren...

I misspoke, Noah Case has one more year left. Jackson is the RFA

Trying to look forward, and not try to revisit the past too much, here is the state of things: 1. The Flyers have less than 120k in available cap space with the signing of DeAngelo 2. If Ellis is simply an LTIR candidate, is DeAngelo really a replacement? 3. Frost, N Case & Jackson Case and...

Can we jettison Hayes along with JvR, Yandle, Thompson, and...well, any of the "veteran leadershp" players who frankly stink like 4 day old fish

Would like to see more of the kids...and less of, well, Thomas. We know what he is/has to offer. Play Frost at center. Play Case at center. That is the only way you get to see what they really have to offer. But that is just me. Really liking what we are seeing from Case so far, and...

Honestly, I don't know...I think in the right combination deal it could be done. It would mean taking something back, but depending on what that is it may be a win. EX: The Flyers get Dumba, or, ... a combination of players.

I may actually have a cunning plan...that may, or may not be crazy....but, hear me out. Don't trade or try to move JvR at the draft. After 7/1, when the Flyers pay the 1 million due signing bonus, then move him and retain 50%. A 3.5 mill JvR might actualy draw a return. It is also an 833...

Is anyone else just itching for them to call up Lacynski and Allison? I would really like to see Zamula as well... But let's be honest. With Yeo behind the bench and Fletcher in the front office, it really appears that the bigger priority to get Thompson back in the lineup than worry about...

I have ZERO trust in the process that involves Cliff Fletcher. I think Briere would be a big breath of fresh air in the GM seat. The team desperately needs a Cap management person who can help get out of the mess that they are in. It isn't as simple as get rid of JvR.

I am not "done" with the organization, but I am disheartened. Not because of resigning Risto. He is a capable 2R player and has made Samhiem better. His only downside is that he can't/hasn't played with Provy. No, my contempt is reserved for Fletcher and to a lesser extent Yeo. They both...

Well, Risto is resigned. I can't say I am overjoyed, or overly upset. The 5 years is not too horrible. The 5.1 AAV is a pay cut. He and Sanheim have worked well as a pair. Actually making them the most consistent, reliable pairing in their own zone. This now allows for greater stability...

We know that this years draft, while better than last is not supposed to be as deep as next year. Well, make that work to our benefit. All trades to include conditional picks in the 2023 draft. Load up on depth. The Flyers need to desperately fill the shelves with players in Reading and...

So here we are again. Another season of early potential promise and eventual futility. The only bright sides I am seeing are the play of Farabee and Atkinson, the return of Kevin Hayes (who seemed at least a half step faster than he was earlier in the season) and the knowledge that Keith...

On the plus side...they won a game. Not sure how...but they did. On the minus side, they won a game....could impact draft position. On the plus side...the number of scouts and teams with scouts at Flyers games means there is interest. On the minus side, the number of scouts means that there...

The more I think about this the seemingly worse it is. The Flyers are about to say goodbye to G, trade Risto who they over paid for, trade Braun who is the most consistent Dman and potentially others. In order to get a team to take JvR you will have to either eat money, or really sweeten the...

In my head, I know that if the Flyers were healthy, they would not be this bad. That said, I don't think they would have been good enough. All the injuries have revealed is that there was too much reliance on certain players to do all of the scoring. It has also shown a light on how weak the...

Things that worked, went right. 1. Carter Hart: Without his performance the Flyers loose. Hart made save after save. He was virtually blameless on the King's goals. 2. PK: Overall the team penalty kill was consistent. Atkinson scoring was just icing on the cake. 3. Cam Atkinson...
