Always love how these writers throw the “rebuilding” word in every article. There was and never has been a rebuild. This guy in every paragraph talks about the “rebuild”. Must be on the payroll
Anyway. No, they don’t have the players to fix the defense. Even healthy it is a bottom 10 unit easily.
If they’re a bottom 10 unit, why have they gotten Top 10 results in 3 games against the two best teams in the conference? The defense is hardly in crisis. They are in hold the fort mode with two of their top 4 Dmen out injured. Perhaps you’re aware of this. The fort is holding. There are teams out there that literally can’t play defense. The Flyers aren’t one of them, banged up or not. Their 6-9 defensemen (Andrea, Ginning, Juulsen, Zamula) have put up a combined +1 in 3 games against top notch opponents. Minnesota’s top 4 defensemen have put up a combined -16 in 4 games. Can you imagine the reaction in Negadelphia if the Flyers gave up 7 to Columbus in their home opener, blew a 3 goal lead in the 3rd period at home to LA and fell behind 3-0 to Dallas by the first minute of the 2nd Period? Would Minnesota’s defense be in crisis? It’s going to be fun Saturday.
Wow 3 games. Let’s plan the parade. They will be a bottom 10 unit come April. Goalies saving them right now, no? The defense stinks. They have got hemmed in 2 out of the 3 games. Outplayed 2 of the 3. outshot. Doesn’t matter who is out injured. They still are not a good unit overall. Hold the fort until what? Risto the legit top pair dman returns? Get the fuck out of here with his crap. 2 best teams, add some context next time.
Back to the Minnesota nonsense. Just say you do not like buium. 10 of the 15 goals the wild scored have been on the PP. seems like a team issue not an isolated 1 player defensive issue; which is what you mean. Take those top 4 on minny any day over the flyers slop you mention and then some.
Seeing how you are infatuated with buium. Buium with 5 pp points in 4 games. Flyers def do not need that type on production when you have Makhughes, I mean JD on D and the jett killing it on the 4th line. Still very very early to compare the jett and buium. See how it plays out by the end of the year. Won’t hold my breath as to who will be a more impactful player. Now and in the future.
There is no negdelphia. Just realist observations and facts. How you can continue to suck the cock of this organization is very noble. Are you an employee? Its ok to not try to defend them every time.

Anyway. No, they don’t have the players to fix the defense. Even healthy it is a bottom 10 unit easily. They have no real help anytime soon outside of bonk and who knows how far away before he can help. Any real help will have to come via a trade. Which means you will have to give to get. Danny doesn’t seem inclined yet to do that as he “loves” his team. Who is even available at this stage that can help now and in the future. Then who do the flyers have with value that they will move?
Right now, the flyers have 2 guys they can move forward with on D (maybe 3 if you want to include JD) if they want to contend at some point. The rest are fodder. Maybe Andrae can be a 3rd pair guy. Either way they have a lot to do in terms of addressing and fixing the defense. Then add in Sanheim will continue to age and his play will start to naturally drop. Pretty bleak on the blueline to me. Which tells me they will overpay in free agency for secondary pieces who they will prop up as top end pieces. Like Trouba.
He really didn’t offer any solutions to fix the problem.
lol. why not take a stance. my 8 as of today would be in no order.
tampa
florida

ottawa
montreal

capsthough at the end of the day 2 of those may miss. isle getting bad goaltending. will that change?
Those are the 8 teams that made it last year. That’s not much of a stance. Of the non-locks, I’d say NJ, then MTL then OTT have the best chances to get back in. OTT ran a crazy late season hot streak to make it last year. That will be tough to repeat so they can’t fall behind like they did in 24-25. Can the Flyers finish with more points than those 3 teams plus every other non-lock? They can.
it is a stance. I provided a list. unlike you who wont. pick your 8
brick by brick. all those other teams can also finish with more points than the flyers no?
is your prediction the flyers make the playoffs? yes or no?
Too early to tell. Early signs are encouraging. BUF and NYI look like trash. I’d say, right now, they’re three of nine teams with a shot at the three available spots, so that’s approximately 33.3333333% chance.

The majority of experts think that, if anything, moneypuck is too optimistic in it’s team point totals. They understand that this is a deeply flawed team.
The experts? Perhaps thinking for yourself is worth a try.

Looks close to right for now considering the Flyers are one of 11 teams competing for 3 available playoff spots with five playoff locks, CAR, FLA, TB, WSH and TOR in the conference. Probably about 27%. Keep hoping for the worst and then alibiing when it doesn’t happen.
no need to hope. it will happen all on its own.getting a response only 3 games in from you was very predictable.
dont think the coach knows what to do with MM, and zegras to an extent. How long can they continue to play Sanheim the minutes he is playing? Same with Seeler as he will be greatly exposed at some point.
will they give andrae a real look or will Juulson stay in the lineup when york returns.
why would I care what Minnesota’s top 4 are doing? how is that relevant to the flyers?
send me your address as will mail you a brick by brick t shirt.
For the second time, just for you, the Flyers are playing Minnesota Saturday. I’m not surprised you think how an opponent this coming weekend is playing isn’t relevant.
Irrelevant to the flyers.
I get it your trying to talk about buium without talking about him. My bad.
By your logic you wouldn’t trade any of those flyer players you mentioned for any of minnys top 4.
go flyers. brick by brick. keep slurping.
any early thoughts for when they acquire dylan mccalrath?
Why should they acquire anybody any time soon? They’ve absorbed having two of their top 4 Dmen out. They’re cycling guys in, out and around on the blueline and seeing what they can do. Ginning, Juulsen, Andrae and Zamula are a combined +1 after three games vs. good teams. As a comparison, Minnesota’s Top 4 are a combined -13 after three games. We get to see them Saturday. That should be interesting.

these are they games they need to win when facing a team backup goalie and minus their star players.
florida looked like they had no interest in playing last night.
Flyers had two of their top 4 D out Thursday and last night too. FLA has 3 great lines when fully healthy. Thursday and last night, they had 2 great lines. FLA looked especially uninterested in the third. Hahahaha!
rookie russian looks solid. would loo into finding a way to get him more minutes.
dvorak playing 1st line minutes again is comical.
Grebenkin will get more minutes as the season goes on. Who do you think moves up when the Flyers get an inevitable forward injury? Dvorak is a solid 2 way player, wins faceoffs and the Flyers played with the lead most of the night. Why wouldn’t you use a player like that in such a situation?
the jett once again without a shot on goal. he needs touches and lots of ice time/minutes. this will not happen at the nhl level this season.
tocchet does nothing for me a as a coach.
So they split with the two time Cup champs in a home and home and steal a point on the road from the other conference finalist and you’re still whining about Jett and don’t like Tocchet as a coach. That’s rich.

at what point does Dahlen and Thompson ask out of buffalo? hoe they want to still play there is mind boggling.
It would be criminal if Briere is not calling Adams everyday and think about a massive swing with a trade. Whatever it takes to get Dahlie, Thompson or even Power. I really do think it is possible to get Dahlin or Power. It will cost a lot, but do not over value the talent in this organization. I just believe it will be harder to pry Thompson out of those 3 players.
dont think the flyers have what it takes to get dahlen or tage. tage has a NMC so he aint waving to come buffalo south. also do not think they have any interest in moving those 2 currently. maybe a new GM goes in a diff direction.
power can be had imo. flyers more likely acquire samuelson…..
