Watching the ducks/jets game.. The flyers don't have the speed to play games like this.
As noted by our record vs playoff teams we could play with anyone of these teams still playing at this point.

I hope the Flyers don't have any ideas of trying to bring back Hitch because I'm pretty sure he's dunzo after this first round exit

Don't want him back either.
DeBoer is available,and IMO has gotten the best out of what little he's been given in Florida and New Jersey.

I don't want Peter DeBoer either, he did everything in his power to ruin Adam Larsson in New Jersey and it was well documented - with all the young d-men in the Flyers system, we don't want a coach who is going to ruin these young d-men

I don't want deboer either. He got a good amount out of a mediocre Devils team, but with the names on the market, we can do better.

Also some bad news, the hoop seems to be semi-blocked on my work computer now. Really not happy about that.

On the NFL, awaz's prediction. Jameis Winston is out of the NFL by 2018.

Didnt see the talk of hitch before, not completely opposed, but I'd rather go a different direction. Not opposed to, McClellan, Julien, Eakins, Bylsma, or Babcock (obviously). Tbh, not totally opposed to John Stevens either. Could be a good stepping stone type coach. Good with/for the youngsters.

Pasnatchio's review of Giroux:

Claude Giroux C
Age: Turns 28 next January

Stats: 81 GP; 25 G; 48 A; 73 Pts.; minus-3

Cap hit: $8.275 million

Pretty good season on a club lacking in key areas. Finished 12th in the league in scoring, second to Voracek on the team, and led the NHL with 37 power-play points. Got off to a very poor start because of a preseason injury. The Flyers need Giroux totally healthy and ready to go next fall. That hasn’t been the case the last couple years. Showed a lot character to play through a painful left ankle injury in November. He’d like to be certain his line is set and not having his left wing moving throughout the lineup to compensate for injuries elsewhere. A quiet captain, Giroux always seems to paint the postgame picture in bright colors, even when unwarranted. Curiously, during the final week of the season, Giroux offered biting criticism that others -- Voracek, Simmonds, Steve Mason -- had been dishing out for weeks. Needs to be harder on teammates to push this group toward new heights. Given how the Flyers have operated in the past with Richards and Jeff Carter, it’s not unthinkable Giroux would be traded if a blockbuster deal presented itself.

Trading Gee would certainly be a blockbuster and would certainly gain us a huge haul back. Hartnell and Giroux trades would mirror the Richards and Carter trades. I would think that since we did that only a few years back that Hextall wouldn't want the backlash from fans in trading Gee.

The flyers aren't trading giroux. That's click bait from a pro troll.

It's not about backlash because of the popularity of the player

It's about making a stupid trade where your team is worse off - the team needs star talent and you're going to be worse off by making a move like this

It's the end of April and people have nothing better to do than to write shitty articles about shit that will never happen
