I don’t think much changes with our outcomes in the next 2-3 years. I admit, I have absolutely changed my tune this season and agree we have to either wait it out until JvR, Jake and G are no longer drags (relative to their cost), or some sort of pixie dust falls our way and teams will take them off of our hands.

Like the article said. Jake and G are good players - they just aren’t worth what they’re getting paid in this league.

I think there's enough talent and enough picks/prospects to turn it around. I just don't trust Fletcher to do it. That's what worries me. Either make trades that make the NHL team better, or blow it all apart. Guys everyone likes, Couturier/Provorov/Farabee, included. Guys that can bring back high end draft picks and prospects like Richards and Carter did. And do the rebuild right. Don't half ass it and trade young guys with potential for mediocre draft picks or players because you don't like how they're performing today.

One thing I can tell you Elliott needs to retire. The D is bad but he is worse. Probably demoralized...

Damn I wish I didn't love this hockey team so much. I can think of so many more things to do with my free time than being so frustrated watching this shit. It's like I enjoy torturing myself. Ugh!

I'll take JvR .to score only goal for us tonight.
Sadly I almost nailed this on the money. I was correct on how many goals we would score. JvR got an assist and not the goal. Sad times in Flyer land.

It’s not even worth tuning in to the rest of the games unless they have the young guys play. And honestly, why subject them to this garbage? Let them enjoy life with the Phantoms and we’ll see everyone again in September.

I hope we dedicate training camp on playing team defense and not leaving your goaltender high and dry.

I hope a lot of things right now. There is nothing fun about the Flyers these days.

@awaz . I kid you not. I just did a tankathon simulator on my first attempt and we nailed #1 and got Owen Power. That's a dman we could really use.

Absolutely. Maybe that 1st round pick will get high enough to get a difference maker. Unfortunately I think they say this is a fairly weak draft, but really with covid knocking out so much, who really knows?

We cant play team defense unless Gee and Jake and JVR are gone. They know only one type of game and that's offense and they aren't even good at that anymore.

This team is such a mess right now.

The Caps made us look like pee wees out there.

I am so hugely let down and disappointed by this Flyers club.

And I’ve been a Browns fan for over 50 years, so that’s an awfully low bar.

I hate to say it, but it's time to bring up as many youngsters as possible to give them a look and also essentially tank the remainder of the season so that we're top 8 in the lottery instead of 15th, which is terrible. Then, we could potentially have a 12.3% chance or better of a top two overall pick.
