Plays the PK well. Pretty much exactly what we need, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EaglesRocker97 Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 Are there any billionaire Philadelphians who we could petition to buy this franchise so it has an owner who maybe gives a $hit? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For real. Not having an owner - singular - to stare you down when you fail like this is a huge part of the problem. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alphagrand Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 How badly does someone have to be playing for the head coach to have to end their 989-game iron man streak as a healthy scratch? "I know we’re eliminated and playing for nothing, and you have this record streak you want to extend …. but you’re so terrible we can’t stand to even see you in the lineup” Great acquisition by Fletcher. A solid -39 in 67 games. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly it’s reaching clown-show level dysfunctional at this point as well. Pulling a move like this will turn the players against that coach. Yandle was a dumb addition and hasn’t been very good for a long time, but 989 consecutive games played means a lot to his teammates I’m sure — especially when he would have gotten to 1,000 before the end of this lost season. There was no "harm” in having him out there because they’re not playing for anything other than a high draft pick. It’s reminiscent of the Giants benching Eli, except there’s only one QB on the field — if he’s bad the team will lose. Yeo could have simply put Yandle at the end of the bench as the 7th defenceman and given him 4-5 minutes of ice time per game. Just a really clownish and no-class move by the franchise 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MIRV Griffen Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 That Pronger read is a good one. Some of these guys are clearly going broke in the course of trying to invest for their future at the hands of dirtbags. Not all of them lose money doing outwardly stupid things.

A solid -39 in 67 games. Don’t forget about his great trade for Ellis. Who like what he has been the past couple years injury prone. Played a whole 4 games. Only Move he made this offseason that was somewhat good was Atkinson. Heck the Kevin Hayes signing a couple years ago looks worse and worse each year. Which was said at the time that contract would likely not age well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said about 3 off seasons ago after they missed the playoffs they should’ve started a rebuild then. They weren’t going to win a title with that group of guys and you could’ve maximized the value of guys like G, voracek and simmonds. they’ve now missed the playoffs 3 out of 4 years. The one year they made it they appeared to look like a contender until the habs gave them issues and they survived to win 3 games against the islanders but majority of that series were outplayed If you did it then and maximized the trade value for those guys you have picks and young prospects growing with what you had in the system. Please don’t give me G wouldn’t waive his NTC. He would’ve if you told him you were going complete rebuild and weren’t going after a cup and wasting his prime years. Likely getting out of rebuild phase around now and into a playoff caliber team with a chance to make a big jump in FA this upcoming offseason. The issue now is you have to do a rebuild cause this team isn’t very good with who is coming back, some of these prospect doesn’t hard flyers fans keep drooling over aren’t nearly as good as they made them out to be and we have guys like Ellis, hayes and some others who aren’t nearly as good or contributing to what they’re being paid. This could take 3 years to get yourself back to being a legitimate contender in the east. That’s if fletcher doesnt F it up which looks like he very well could to try and save his ass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed would never had let it come this far if he were still alive. Not everyone. We had some on here and die hard flyers fans that didn’t want to give up G and thought they could win a title with that roster and adding. The biggest problem was the flyers refused to believe their core wasn’t good enough and thought we could just add in FA to put us over. they needed to start over because they didn’t want to move on from G and voracek until it became abundantly clear it wasn’t going to be enough. to me it wasn’t about Claude giroux if he was great or not. It was about his maximum value at that specific time and the flyers were not close to being a legitimate Stanley Cup contender. So you were better off maximizing his value, bringing in picks and prospects to build so you could eventually have a roster that was good enough to compete for Stanley Cup. Now you have a bad roster and minimal return on giroux to help build, some poor contracts and it’s gonna take you even longer to get there now. At this point we have to and everyone sees it besides possibly the flyers and fletcher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
