I guess they will pump up the offer sheet stuff to make it look like hey we are trying to their delusional fan base.
As soon as laughton was traded I predicted he will end up back in philly. Hayes is also a free agent.
If he doesn’t re-sign with the ducks trouba will be a flyers target.
ND def earned his spot over the russian. scratching the jett in the opening game. flyers developmental process at work. both will be yo-yo in and out then when they dont produce they will take the fall.
Contain their top two lines with ours, fight their 4th line with ours and hope the Cates line makes the extra shot. That looks like the plan.
Not a great week to be a Philadelphia sports fan. I thought i could at least depend on the Eagles to make a layup win.
Congrats to Bob for the win last night and i hope he has another great season. Rarely has the shortsightedness of the Flyers over time been shown so clearly. We are here almost 15 years later and has anything really changed for the Flyers? Is the team in front of the goalie any better? There is no hope of stabilizing the Flyers defense short of trading for a #1 dman because they sure as hell aren’t trying to draft one. The Flyers defense is “thin” even when healthy.
ND really made a difference out there last night playing the least amount of minutes of all skaters. He fought how many times? The Flyers much hyped “rookie” in his second year of making the big club learned a lot from the press box about how not to fight i guess from ND. ND looking ok in 1 preseason game almost a month ago was really the right take away from the preseason.
This isn’t a knock on ND. He is who he is and is performing as expected, at least outside the Flyers brain trust. If the Flyers had no better options on the bench and it wasn’t a rebuilding year then i would get it but if Jett isn’t a better option than a mid 30s slow footed over the hill fighter, what is he doing on the team? He’s had more games in the press box than on the ice over the last 2 years.
But i guess the rebuild is over, they are in the mix for the playoffs and are going to fight their way in.

Another flat start (or so I read)… guys not bothering to show up until late in the second period. Gee, where have we heard that before?
– Its sad how nauseating JJ and bocher have become.
– Love hearing JJ say TK ex selke Sanheim are at the stage they want to win now. Wont happen unless they ask for a trade. Hope all 3 are miserable as that is what you have earned when you re-signed.
– JJ with the brick by brick flyers propaganda. Guess boucher also got his brick by brick talking point.
– Dvorak with more ice time than MM
– Same boring bland team. 20 mostly harmless shots.
– JD is just there, what exactly does he offer?
– ND with quality play in his 7+ minutes. He is much needed on that bench.
– Cates looked good. One positive.
– Goalie gave them a chance.
– Looking forward to hearing all year how this team works hard, never quits, and all the other flyers nonsense. Like they are the only team with such qualities.
– There is zero reason to sit the 2 they sat. they both need to play. This is what a “rebuilding” team would do no? however its playoffs or bust for the flyers need that vet presence. Just another short term view approach. Don’t want to hear well its only 1 game. BS either way. Send them both to other leagues if not going to be regulars in the lineup.

I always love hearing that when players take the bag to play for a bad team and then expect the fairy godmother to waive the magic wand. They didn’t care about winning until after they took the money.

I will never fault a guy for taking the bag. that being said you made your bad that’s where you lie. no pearly gates when you die. we tried to teach you didn’t learn. your going down your gonna burn.
all 3 would have got paid no matter where they went. they choose to stay because they are comfortable and complacent. no pressure situation. winning wasnt/isnt a priority for them. this is why they all needed to be moved and cut the cord

This was brought up during Konecny’s extension. It wasn’t that Konecny wasn’t going to get the money from someone, it was whether the Flyers should be the one paying him being at the start of a “rebuild” and years away from contention. Little did we know the “rebuild” would only last 2 years.

there was never a rebuild therefore the flyers “had” to keep him. key core player. true flyer.
this is just another wasted year spinning their wheels. until the dumb ass flyers fans wake up and stop going to the games, nothing will change
