Maybe. I was pissed at torts a few weeks ago and he hurt Kreider I think. So not sure if tough love is best nowadays
- Slimtj100


Well, there's tough love and there's simple discipline. I'm not even talking about taking penalties, but just forcing things and not playing sound positional defense.

This team just does things the hardest possible way.

Everybody knows Philly fans are an embarassment

You have a great team with some exciting players to watch. Philly is currently struggling and you're kicking them while they are down. Happy?

Now go outside and play, it is a beautiful day out and nature is really cool.

I have believed from the first day of the season that the Flyers primary problem is the absence of a #1 Dman. A large part of the forwards problem has to do with the fact the back end cannot get them the puck on the breakout from their own zone.

The second issue, I believe, is Bryzgalov is overworked and is not making the big save or stealing a game. A good back up (eg Bishop) would go a long way towards improving the situation.

Really important, do not panic and do not do anything rash over the short term.

Dangles? Only puck bunnies use the term 'dangles'.

Please go throw yourself off a bridge.

maybe all the flyers have to do is tank the season for half a decade, threathen to move the team, file for bankruptcy and have the NHL rig the draft lottery to build a championship caliber team
- devfan30


Hey we may have sucked for 4 seasons. But the pens were as broke as it gets then and actually made an effort with recchi leclair palffy Gonchar and thibault. Didn't work but it was an honest effort not a tank job. And isn't threatening to move something the devils, and many other teams, have done?

And nothing more played out than the rigged lottery BS. First off the league can't do anything that complicated right. And second a more compelling case could have been made to hand him to the rangers, islanders, Columbus, buffalo, LA and likely others. And really what's better for the league after a missed season, most hyped prospect in a generation on a small market team in turmoil with an empty old building that or broadway, returning an original 6 team back to prominence after 8 years of missed playoffs and horrendous management?

Holmgren deserves to be re-evaluated, but a lot of his moves have been influenced by pressure from above. It doesn't help when you have a coach trying to play a system designed for Chris Pronger and Matt Carle with Nik Grossmann and Luke Schenn.

You have to adapt for the players on hand.

Should I just unfollow cubish boy & his girl for the 18th time or what? Going to Twitter was a mistake.
