    Every team has their own version of culture, it’s just nobody cares because they aren’t the reigning Stanley Cup winner.

    Like the Avalanche who won a few years ago have their culture if you google it : hard work and winning mentality. lol. Who knew? who cares? Turns out the Panthers aren’t unique in having culture or in how they define it. You win you get the puff pieces.

    Same google search changing one word.

    Skill, coaching, execution. Without the skill and the coaching they are the Buffalo Sabres no matter how much everyone loves each other. Without Barkov, Ekblad, Tkachuk, Bob, and even Maurice are they successful no matter how often they have group hugs and hit people? No.

    Winning the Stanley cup takes a lot of different things coming together at the right time, Skill (the cornerstones and supporting players), coaching, execution, and sacrificing for the team.

    Let’s get our MacKinnon/Makar, Barkov/Ekblad, etc before putting the culture cart before the horse because without that, the rest is just something that comes out of the other end of the horse.

    If by bad luck you mean going from a culture of players that hate losing to players who pee together, then yes.

    It’s also true some top rated players in the league haven’t won Cups either. The Flyers clearly need another Top 4 Dman. No question about that. Willing to find out what Zegras can do as the offensive 1C which he clearly will be. It’s a team game. The Flyers will be noticeably better this year.

    True. It takes more than just talent but it can’t be done without it. The Flyers tend to forget that.

    I’m their target market? Hahahaha! I gave up on them for two seasons. Did not watch. Barely followed. No regrets. I like what I see now. I’ll be watching. Get back to me if I’m proven wrong . . . which I won’t be.

    morning, noon or night
    Weekday, weekend… doesn’t matter.
    Dog days of summer or the dead of winter
    One thing I can always count on is that you’ll be here, pounding that keyboard (likely the only thing you’re pounding other than sleeves of Oreos)

    It’s comforting, really. This is your life, cliff. you da man!

    If only they had more Dale Weise types to tell them how to win? The fact that anyone gave this dude a platform is hysterical. Can tell it is the “slow” season for hockey talk.

    I love the guys that complain about leadership. They do know they are able to take those reigns right? Anybody can be a leader. Even without a letter on the sweater.

    Losing leads to finger pointing. Winning leads to accolades. Bottom line is the Flyers were not good enough to win anything for close to 15 years now.

    Looks like Pronman at the Athletic has the Flyers prospect pipeline ranked in the top 8. We will know the exact rank tomorrow I guess.

    It shouldn’t since he already has a full NHL season under his belt.
