So….. a toxic franchise ?

We have been so long without an identity. Somehow there needs to be a plan to get coaching / front office / players on the same page. That’s the winning formula - and has been totally absent with the flyers for decades.
The only winning formula and its been this way forever is to have good players. If you have good players and win nobody ever complains about coaches GMs or the front office.

Could Hakstol win the cup this year with Florida ?

What is everyone talking about!?

Is Andrew Brunette not the current interim head coach of Florida?

Is Dave Hakstol not coaching in Seattle!?

We should just go ahead and hire Rick Tocchet asap. If anything, he will hold everyone accountable and make sure we have a team that works hard 100% of the time. Also, a guy like that obviously commands your respect as a player and already has achieved legend status within the organization.

Agree, also give Briere the keys and hire Lindros to be an assistant

Was talking hypothetical - LAS making point that it’s all about your players on the roster.

Yes. Bring in guys that had a lot of success here, know what it means to be a Flyer and hate to lose.

Those two guys were each the driving force on Flyer squads that made the Cup Finals and fell just sort. I believe it was '10 and '97.

I mean...some of these teams are so stacked right now that you almost can't fuck it up. Florida is arguably one of those. Anyone could win a Cup right now coaching them...Lol

We need a coach that can coach to the players strengths. Once we get a few more players with some strengths, we can worry about a coach. If Yandle can't play today because he is sick, he stays in the press box the remainder of the season.

Finally!!
Kessel will end the season at 982 - so yandle keeps the record until next season.

I guess if they knew how to do math in Philadelphia, they could have scratched him roughly 3 games ago - assuming AZ would have played 3 games in that time period.

Yes, I am a math nerd.

Im loving the compete level. I dont mind losing if they are going to compete like this every game.

Scoring 3 plus goals per game gives you a chance every night if you compete.

This guy is backing Yandle and thinks he should still have his streak going.

There is no doubt in my mind that Simmer was going after McEwen all game because McEwen gave Smith from the Red Wings a beating twice in the same game.

I copied this from a comment section in a story about Yandle because its so true.



They played him when they needed to win games and he made them worse. Now they need to lose games and they sit him, which makes them better. This is such a Flyers move.
