The Flyers are just going to outwork everyone to the Stanley Cup, talent be damned.
Yes, that’s the answer. Make the Ice Capades fans happy with lots of “puck moving” defensemen and highly skilled, speedy forwards who weigh less than most of the players on the US Women’s National Team. That’s a sure formula for a Cup win.
the flyers formula is a way not to win a cup. 100% verified. but hey those big players the flyers drafted in 2025 will get them over the top in 3 years.
no need to claim. it’s a fact. you need to really stop comparing the flyers to top teams. its laughable.
yeah fun to watch. such a high-octane offense. can’t wait to be entertained.
who are they dumping at the deadline? wow that top 16 pick will franchise altering.
The difference between how the top teams play, especially FLA, is the biggest difference between them and the Flyers. FLA supports the puck like a pack of demons. The Flyers do not. Supporting the puck isn’t some elite “needle-moving” skill only Top 5 overall draft picks can master. You should watch the regular season and playoff games closely this year. You might learn something about NHL hockey.
Dvorak and possibly Risto could get them picks if it comes to that.
in bold is so comical. yep, not a big talent discrepancy at all.
yeah, maybe I will watch. then I can possibly learn. my guess it will tell me the same thing. flyers are 2000 lightyears away from any point of contention.
that is a truckload of players to move out. flyers can really set themselves up for the future by moving those 2. they have zero interest in moving RR. I hope they re-sign him. shit hope they re-sgin dvorak as well.
the entire team needs to get better not just the goalies and defenseman.
You claim the Flyers top goal scorers aren’t “needle movers” or “special” yet their production is close enough to the top goal scorers on the two teams that went to the conference finals in the East with upside on the way. This team will be fun to watch this year even if the D and G band aids don’t work as well as hoped. Worst case scenario: Dump at the deadline for more future assets and you still have your own Top 16 pick.

the real problem starts at the top with ownership. then trickles down layer by layer.
The almost nine year long Hextall/Fletcher catastrophe is over. That destroyed this team, no question. This is now. The team still has issues but it’s a ton better off than it was.
as I said the real problem starts at the top. the same top that is still in place when those 2 were the GM. that hasn’t changed. replaced scott with another dope who has no business running a sports team.
briere part of fletcher’s staff, no? the amount of felating that briere receives is pure entertainment.
a ton better. god I love flyers fans. most delusional uneducated fan out there.
no MM is not a special player at this time. he may be in the future. what will martone deliver?
those results will not be good enough. adequate will not be good enough. not sure why you can’t see that.
There’s always a chance Michkov could get injured. He scored 26 goals in the best league in the world at 19-20. He should top that at 20-21. He has better offense around him. There’s no reason to think Martone can’t do roughly the same. They’ll both be among the top 4 goal scorers on this team soon enough. It’s not elite offensive skill the Flyers lack. The top 4 goal scorers last year with CAR and FLA had 103 and 106. The Flyers had 95 with some upside on the way. It’s overall team D, the defensemen and the goaltending that need to get better now. If you want to complain, not sure why you aren’t complaining about that. If things don’t go much better defensively, it’s another tanked season. Keeping it vague and superficial I guess.
has nothing to do with getting injured. right now, he is not a special player. not sure why that is hard to accept at the moment.
Martone will also be a special player? is that what you’re saying?
who give a shit if they are in the top 4 scoring on a shit team. means less than nothing.
yes, the flyers lack elite offensive skill. to say otherwise is mind boggling. you really really overrate the flyers forwards.
the entire team needs to get better not just the goalies and defenseman.
This is the Flyers real problem area, not that they don’t have enough “puck-moving” defensemen or skilled, fast players who weigh less than most of the players on the US Women’s national team.

Love briere pumping the vlader wanted to be in Philly propaganda. Gee wonder why ..
We feel he gives us a chance. A chance at what?
Chance to be the #1. Let that sink in
quantity is not greater than quality. majority are of the vanilla variety. nothing special. every team has those types. you act like all these picks will turn into nhl players. majority will not. flyers have shown the do not trade their “prospects”. do they ever sell high on someone they drafted?
there is no plan.
You only have to fill so many roster spots. You don’t need to have every prospect turn into a “special” player. Michkov already is, and Martone will deliver. That’s two out of those five Top 13 picks. Should Luckanko and Nesbitt become adequate regulars in their roles, that’s a plenty good result. Drysdale, the vaunted “puck-moving” defenseman, is gonna Drysdale.

they can 100% be buyers if it fits longer term; as they should. they have very little to sell.
if they are in the playoff “mix” I can easily see them buying to an extent and moving out some picks/prospects (not their “high” end ones)
Forwards develop faster. They’re within a year or two of having some surplus players to put a decent trade package together. They’ve got plenty of forward prospects. Likely more than enough will develop to fill any holes and the remainder becomes trade bait. This is clearly the plan. Still not sure how it’s a problem.

DB already announced that they are in buyer mode so i wouldn’t count on it.
The Flyers are in buyer mode until they aren’t. They won’t be buying this trade deadline even if all the band aids hold, they catch some lucky breaks and they are in playoff contention.

flyers will easily 99.9% miss the playoffs. flyers have nothing in common with the any recent cup winners.
flyers strategy is completely flawed on how to build a team.
The Flyers continue to build on a foundation of quicksand and are always scratching their heads and are always surprised at the results.
I really wonder how long a leash danny boy will have at the helm.
