Just stick with the process, if there is one? This team needs a few more bottom of the league finishes to acquire some actual top line talent, specifically at center. Couturier may become a good trade chip come Dec/Jan, if that’s something he’s willing to entertain.
Much like the former captain he is content and comfortable. He and others can talk all they want about winning. If he is healthy all year as I said before, and he has any ounce of wanting to win he will ask out. I will not hold my breath he will. 4.5 years left on his deal. Lack of quality centers in the league. Cap rising. Maybe a team would take a chance. Especially being he wouldn’t have to be their top center.
Also do you really see the flyers asking him to waive his NTC? I don’t think they have any interest in moving him. They view him as a key piece moving forward.
All above applies to the two lovers in TK and Sanheim.
The top 4 D is carrying the load, which is both good and bad. Usually teams don’t play their 3rd pair around 10 mins/game until the playoffs, not in October. Full credit to Vladar for taking advantage of his opportunity. It has been refreshing watching Flyers get above .900 save % for multiple games for a goalie. Does not happen very often over the last couple of years. Dvorak is such a redundant center for what is already on the roster with Couts and Cates. I sure hope the plan is to trade him by the deadline. TK and Michkov have not worked together all season. With the insistence of keeping the Cates line in tact, sure seems like the move is to place TK with Zegras and Dvorak. The coaching staff seems like there is a red line that Zegras and Michkov cannot play together at 5 on 5 with the year being described as “we want to better then last season, but do not have to make the playoffs”.
a re-sign is more likely
they want the playoffs very badly. that is the focus
– Crucial 2 points. This type of win is one that can turn the season around. 1 point out of the wild card
– 22 shots including OT. Love it. against the “worse” defensive team. Can’t wait for the spin from the flyer felator.
– MM with the lowest 5 on 5 time out of the top 9 forwards. maybe needs a seat in the press box. like I said the other day the coach has no idea what to do with him. Hope he asks out at some point. when does mm rumors for Hughes start …
-Good to see Zegras taking face offs as that will help him with his development in the future playing center for the flyers
– wild played the prior night did the flyers ?
– Juulson rules. Def has more to offer than Andre. Clear as day flyers made the right call.
– if there really is interest in tippet move him asap
– tocchet is a bozo and briere a putz/puppet
– That arena is dead. Quiet as can be. 16k last game. 17k tonight. hopefulyl peeps are waking up.
– If TK, Sanheim , and ex selke have any ounce of pride they would ask for a trade.
– just an uninspiring roster and coach. Boring stale and bland.
-what has changed in style of play from last year excluding blocking shots. PP still a joke. maybe it wasnt rocky…..
– ND bringing the energy. he sets the tone. Flyers need him in the lineup if they want to hang in this playoff race. His vet calming presence is underrated. He can have an impact in his 8 minutes
– good showcase/ get your head out your ass for zamula. Plenty of upside still there and I think this staff can unlock it
– boucher and JJ should just blow each other already
the jett and russuan#2 scratched. brick by brick.
cant wait to hear the sin on another dumb decision.
ROFL. If he’s not good enough to be in the lineup, even on the 4th line (stupid), what is he doing here? I guess nobody in the Philly brain trust wanted a side by side comparison that even the people who buy their PR bull would get.
As i’ve said all year, play the kids and let them sink or swim, screw the heavy vet lineup which does nothing for the team. Also, if you want to “develop” Jett’s offensive instincts, put him in a position to make some plays. If he isn’t good enough for that he belongs somewhere else. The Flyers have just screwed up so badly with how they yoyo this kid. It has been determined that ND is more valuable to the lineup than Jett or Greb. Crazy.
Also as a reminder, Andrae is a top 6 dman on this team and the only game they’ve won so far was with him on the back end making the right play in getting the puck out of the zone, reliably. He’s not back in the AHL because of merit, it’s bias.
no worries tocchet is on the scene. the 3rd vancouver reject coach in a row thw flyers have hired.
both just piss poor franchises. buff with a “huge” win today.

the jett scores the GW while buium in the ice. “jonesy” and briere strut around like peacocks saying yep.
disagree on the 1st goal. the diff between a good goalie and average one is a good goalie can make that save.
not by design though. shear incompetence. thats the scary part once again
The how isn’t important right now, what matters is that they finish low, which they appear to be trending towards. Although it’s a small sample size. In four or five years when things start to turn around there’ll probably be different people in charge. Don’t get caught up in the small stuff, poor management, just be glad they finish at or near the bottom of the league.
no faith in who the pick unless somone falls in their lap. drafting/development leaves a lot to be desired
4 or 5 years is a pipedream imo. the wonder twins have a long leash it seems. unless “hilf” the tool is fired first those 2 are safe.
Looks like we’re right on track to finish near the bottom of the league and get those coveted high picks. The teams that get those picks are the teams that have success and win Championships.
not by design though. shear incompetence. thats the scary part once again
– anyone impressed with tocchet yet? another boring, bland, stale coaching choice.
– ex selke increasing his trade value. I kid flyers do not have any forth sight to move him or Tippet for that matter. core players for middling team going nowhere team.
– now that zegras is on the wing they have to many. MM-Martone-TK-MM -The Forest- Brink – Tippet. what will danny boy do? his head must be spinning. pretty obvious to many except the ones that make the decisions. can briere admit he made a mistake?
– laughtchenko zero shots on goal. pathetic. even worse if you go back and add in his preseason games. don’t see any good nhl qualities at all so far.
– we shall see if the coach rides vlader for a while.
– dvorak not offering much. showing every game he isnt a top 6 option at all.
– like russian #2. just seems to notice him on the ice. hope they let him work through the things he needs to work on.
– nothing really has changed.
