It's gonna be a long season!
Charlestown Chiefs - I will get my hockey fix by watching Slap Shot weekly.So we know the flyers are in for the tank job, that being said what team will you bandwagon on? We know I'll be on the Avs train, I think @awaz said he's breaking out his Canes jersey. So who ya got?
Im sticking with the Flyers as we dont know that they will be bad yet. That's why they play the games. They may surprise us and finish middle of the pack.So we know the flyers are in for the tank job, that being said what team will you bandwagon on?

Both this guy and Simmons check off the box for toughness. Maybe he can wear #17 so they have something else in common.

I’ll still watch the Flyers - turning off the games if they become unbearable - but I do think with Tortellini behind the bench they will be watchable.So we know the flyers are in for the tank job, that being said what team will you bandwagon on?

Word salad.....John Tortorella Unplugged: His Message to Frustrated Flyers Fans
New coach John Tortorella talked exclusively to Philly Hockey Now recently about a number of topics, some related to the Philadelphia Flyers, some related to his search for a farm for his four pitbulls and three horses, some related to creating an identity for his hockey team. During the...phillyhockeynow.com
Word salad.....
I couldn't care less that the team take on the personality of the city. WTF does that even mean ? No-offense to Avs fans (ha ha) but the Avs do not have the pot smoking, tree hugging personality of their 'city'... Bolts aren't a bunch of northern retirees.....
Pick a damn philosophy for your team (which we've pointed out he winning options on this board many times) and stick with it. If you have players that don't fit, or don't want to fit - they go, and are replaced with those who do.
So it's back to one thing in common.McEwen wears # 17.
Frost, Tippett and Noah Cates did look good at the end. Hopefully Tippett and Cates become finishers. For a full season, Cates was on a 25 goal pace and Tippett about 16. Hopefully they can grow in spite of what happens this year.Frost, Tippett Handed Golden Opportunity with Flyers in 2022-23 - The Hockey Writers Philadelphia Flyers Latest News, Analysis & More
The Philadelphia Flyers will give Morgan Frost and Owen Tippett the opportunity to develop into the type of talent the organization lacks.thehockeywriters.com
I agree, I know Tippett was only on pace for about 16 but he could've had a lot more goals. He hit posts, had breakaways and just some bad luck. It would be nice if both of them can develop at least we would be moving forward instead of backward.Frost, Tippett and Noah Cates did look good at the end.

Sad thing is, if he shows signs of good development, he'll be traded for lesser talent.I agree, I know Tippett was only on pace for about 16 but he could've had a lot more goals.

I really hope so for our sake.Maybe Torts will be the fire that gets lit under the backsides of these so-called young and under-developed players/prospects that apparently the Flyers's roster is packed to the gills with these days.
