It’s even more obvious in the year over year numbers. Lowest attendance in 30 years, except for the lockout year. I think they bought the New Error in Orange until Torts lit a match, threw it in the fuel tank and walked away last year. Without all the Torts drama the focus has shifted back to the on ice product that doesn’t have a Bedard type franchise center to promote/build around and the best young player they have, is hardly playing. But they did get bigger to prepare for that deep run.
Considering how the Flyers are one of the few teams that like to build from the bottom up it is absurd how unproductive they are. That’s multiple flyers coaches/gms who think ND deserves ice time.
Rebuild over without drafting or acquiring a single franchise cornerstone. Flyers roster building at it’s finest.
The rebuild is just starting, don’t buy into their verbal diarrhea about it being over and them hoping the worst is behind them. They secretly want to finish at the bottom again, they just won’t outwardly say it because they still want fans to believe. Exciting times…Lets Go Flyers!!!
Flyer’s 4th line is embarrassing really. The fact ND plays any games is a joke. Still shows the dumb mentality of the flyer’s way. The 3 they use offer next to nothing.
Wonder what vet they bring in to solidify that 4th line. Tocchet will be in his ear.

Now, with the Flyers believing they can make it into the playoff field, there’s more of an onus of a need to provide more from the fourth line.
..
All told, being 2-3-1 in those six games isn’t awful, but what is a noticeable trend from both is concerning – the Flyers look slow and gassed by the third game. They shouldn’t be. They are the fourth-youngest team in the NHL, so they should have reserve fuel that most other teams do not.And yet, they don’t.
fans starting to wake a little.

The rebuild plan is going to a tee!! They’re still slightly competitive enough to draw in ticket revenue, primarily a gate driven league, but still bad enough that they’ll be selling at the deadline to acquire more quality picks and hopefully get into a top three overall selection. It’s a great time to be a Flyer fan.

I would try a forest – zegras – MM line. I doubt the coach will however. Think Tyson has more ot offer if playing with more skilled players.
No need not to try something diff and break up the cates line. See above.
Ex selke has been offering nothing offensively. Not a damn thing.
The 4th line is once again a disgrace. After all these years they still can’t ice a quality bottom line. Disgraceful. GH looks shot. Should have been moved long before his ext.
A smart organization would look into moving Dvorak. Since it is the flyers look for an ext before the trade deadline. Term will be the question. Probably 3 or 4 years. 4.5 per?
Send Russian #2 down to LHV if not going to play every game. Zero need for ND to play at all.
Seeler is another guy that should be moved. He is playing up in the lineup, not his fault, when he should be a bottom pair dman. Gives you what he has though that doesn’t cut it.
Good to see andrae get more minutes. Figure out if he has a future role.
Still laughable MM getting the least top 9 minutes.
But this has been a trend for a little while. Since the start of November, the Orange and Black have a 46.31% expected goal share at 5-on-5. That’s the seventh-worst mark in the league, and their 40.00% goal share further outlines the direness of the situation.
The Flyers have done well to survive, sitting at 3–3–2 this month, but they’ve only won a single game in regulation or overtime. When shootouts are out of the equation, this team hasn’t been great recently—the kind of stretch that indicates a long losing streak could be on the horizon.
I still find it hilarious that the Flyers preferred Jett ride the pine in the NHL than playing top minutes in the OHL. Also, Andrae is “earning” his minutes. He more than earned his spot in training camp, especially compared to Jett, yet Jett is the golden boy who could do no wrong. Will their decision making ever improve?
