And as the Torts era begins, the Flyers are finding injured players as well as over-paid douchebags that need to be shown the door. Here is another.

Ha - intro to game tonight at Flyers practice facility. Closest we’ll ever be to a final on our ice.

I just can't bet against the 2x defending champs until someone finally puts the final nail in their coffin. I haven't watched the tape of game 5 yet, but they arguably got robbed in game 4. I can't see them losing on their ice again and they've just proven they can win on the road. I'll take Tampa to win it in game 7, believe it or not.

Palat and Cirelli are so good right now. Truly underrated and underpaid. I wish our Flyers had a couple of players like them. Amazing how Tampa is doing this all without Brayden Point too, who is another all-world player.

Well I chose the Lightning in 6 or 7 way back when, so we shall see how this plays out. Good series though.

Actually, our Flyers have been to the Cup Finals 8 times, which is the most among expansion (or non-original six) teams. It's winning the damn thing that has been troubling because we keep running into a dynasty every single time. Canadiens, Islanders, Oilers, Red Wings and Blackhawks.

It could definitely be worse. We could be Toronto, Buffalo or Vancouver (or any of the other teams yet to have ever won a Cup, which is a bunch more).

I remember exactly where I was and with whom when we lost to the Blackhawks

Yeah Baby!! Who's the Champs? Bolts couldn't cheat their way this year. Also just a heads up to Torts, don't sign Corey Perry!

You think Farabee is a over paid douchebag? Or just injured? Cause he's been pretty good last couple of years.

No I think Farabee is an injured player that might have been postponing his treatment for various reasons. There are others that satisfy the critera for overpaid douchebags.

Yea. Twenty-One long years is a stretch to wait for Lord's Stanley's Cup to be in your home office.

Shoot, I didn't even know he was injured, it just says cervical area, wonder if it's just to repair a tear that he thought would heal on its own. Also maybe surgery was recommended to get him healed faster before training camp? Either way fingers crossed.
